SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Additions

    On March 26, 2004, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are 
Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (69 FR 15786) of proposed 
additions to the Procurement List. After consideration of the material 
presented to it concerning capability of qualified nonprofit agencies 
to provide the products and impact of the additions on the current or 
most recent contractors, the Committee has determined that the products 
listed below are suitable for procurement by the Federal Government 
under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41 CFR 51-2.4.

Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification

    I certify that the following action will not have a significant 
impact on a substantial number of small entities. The major factors 
considered for this certification were:
    1. The action will not result in any additional reporting, 
recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities other 
than the small organizations that will furnish the products to the 
Government.
    2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the products to the Government.
    3. There are no known regulatory alternatives which would 
accomplish the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41 U.S.C. 46-
48c) in connection with the products proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List.

End of Certification

    Accordingly, the following products are added to the Procurement
