SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Addition

    On March 19, 2004, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are 
Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (69 F.R. 13019) of proposed 
additions to the Procurement List. The Federal Register proposed 
addition on March 19, 2004 identified the service as Furniture 
Rehabilitation Service. Review of the scope of work led to a decision 
to change the title of this Procurement List addition to more 
accurately reflect the work being done.
    After consideration of the material presented to it concerning 
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the service and 
impact of the addition on the current or most recent contractors, the 
Committee has determined that the service listed below is 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 service to the 
Government.
    2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the service 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 service proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List.

End of Certification

    Accordingly, the following service is added to the Procurement 
List:

Service

Service Type/Location: System Furniture Reuse Services, North 
American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), Building 2, 250 
Vandenberg Street, Peterson AFB, Colorado.
NPA: Aspen Diversified Industries, Inc., Colorado Springs, Colorado.
Contract Activity: Headquarters, Air Force Space Command, Peterson 
AFB, Colorado.

Deletion

    On April 9, 2004, the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are 
Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (69 FR 18869) of proposed 
deletions to the Procurement List. After consideration of the relevant 
matter presented, the Committee has determined that the service listed 
below is no longer suitable for procurement by the Federal Government 
under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41 CFR 51-2.4.
