COMMITTEE FOR PURCHASE FROM
PEOPLE WHO ARE BLIND OR
SEVERELY DISABLED
17:47 Jul 14, 2005
Jkt 205001
Additions
On May 6, May 13, and May 20, 2005,
the Committee for Purchase From
People Who Are Blind or Severely
Disabled published notice (70 FR 23979,
25534/25535/25536, and 29274) 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 services and impact of
the additions on the current or most
recent contractors, the Committee has
determined that the products and
services listed below are suitable for
procurement by the Federal Government
under 41 U.S.C. 46–48c and 41 CFR 51–
2.4.
The following material pertains to the
products identified in this Federal
Register notice.
By notice of May 13, 2005 (70 FR
25534), the Committee proposed to add
the following quantities of military
uniforms to its Procurement List:
New Army Combat Uniform (ACU)
Coats & Trousers ‘‘Transition Quantities
Qualified Nonprofit Agencies under the
Committee’s program are currently
authorized to produce 300,000 Battle
Dress Uniform (BDU) trousers and
100,000 BDU coats. During the Army’s
transition from BDU to the ACU, at the
request of the Defense Supply Center-
PO 00000
Frm 00004
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Philadelphia (DSCP), it is proposed that
qualified nonprofit agencies produce an
additional 200,000 BDU trousers,
900,000 ACU coats, 900,000 ACU
trousers, and 50,000 BDU coats
annually, for a period of three years.
Once the transition period is complete,
the additional quantities will be deleted
from the Procurement List and the
qualified nonprofit agencies will reduce
their production, back to 300,000 ACU
trousers and 100,000 ACU coats.’’
On June 16, 2005, DSCP took action
to issue immediate Stop Work Orders to
all manufacturers of BDU uniforms of
all types, including the nonprofit
agencies currently producing BDUs
under the Committee’s program. The
transition to the ACUs will be
accelerated, without the planned three
year period of transition from BDUs to
ACUs. Therefore, the Committee
decided to convert the announced
addition quantities of BDUs into the
same quantities of ACUs proposed in
the May 13, 2005, notice of proposed
addition (70 FR 25534). These
additional quantities of ACUs will
remain on the Procurement List for a
period of three years and then will be
deleted.
Under the Committee’s replacement
commodity regulation (41 CFR 51–
6.13(a)), the additional quantities of
BDUs proposed by the May 13, 2005,
notice (70 FR 25534) are automatically
considered to be on the Procurement
List as ACU replacements for the BDUs,
by virtue of this notice of addition. The
BDUs will also remain on the
Procurement List until there is no longer
a Government requirement for BDUs.
The following material pertains to all
of the items being added to the
Procurement List.
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 and services to the
Government.
2. The action will result in
authorizing small entities to furnish the
products and services to the
Government.
3. There are no known regulatory
alternatives which would accomplish
the objectives of the Javits-WagnerO’Day Act (41 U.S.C. 46–48c) in
connection with the products and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The Transactions of U.S. Affiliate,
Except a U.S. Banking Affiliate, with
Foreign Parent (Form BE–605) and
Transactions of U.S. Banking Affiliate
with Foreign Parent (Form BE–605
Bank) obtain quarterly sample data on
transactions and positions between
foreign-owned U.S. business enterprises
and their ‘‘affiliated foreign groups’’
(i.e., their foreign parents and foreign
affiliates of their foreign parents). The
data collected are used in the
preparation of the U.S. international
transactions accounts, national income
and product accounts, and input-output
accounts. The data are needed to
measure the amount of foreign direct
investment in the United States,
monitor changes in such investment,
assess its impact on the U.S. and foreign
economies and, based upon this
assessment, make informed policy
decisions regarding foreign direct
investment in the United States.
BEA proposes the following changes
to the survey: (1) To maintain
consistency of the U.S. international
transactions accounts with current
international statistical standards,
collect information on payments to and
receipts from the foreign parent and
foreign affiliates of the foreign parent
gross of any taxes withheld. Previously,
the information was collected net of
taxes withheld. (2) To avoid potential
duplication, modify the instructions for
the survey to instruct respondents to
exclude positions and transactions in
financial derivatives contracts that are
to be reported on or derived from
information reported to the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York on the new
Treasury International Capital Form D,
Report of Holdings of, and Transactions
in, Financial Derivatives Contracts with

List products previously furnished by such agencies.
DATES: Effective Date: August 15, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Additions
On May 6, May 13, and May 20, 2005, the Committee for Purchase From
People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice (70 FR
23979, 25534/25535/25536, and 29274) 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
services and impact of the additions on the current or most recent
contractors, the Committee has determined that the products and
services listed below are suitable for procurement by the Federal
Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41 CFR 51-2.4.
The following material pertains to the products identified in this
Federal Register notice.
By notice of May 13, 2005 (70 FR 25534), the Committee proposed to
add the following quantities of military uniforms to its Procurement
List:
New Army Combat Uniform (ACU) Coats & Trousers `` Transition
Quantities Qualified Nonprofit Agencies under the Committee's program
are currently authorized to produce 300,000 Battle Dress Uniform (BDU)
trousers and 100,000 BDU coats. During the Army's transition from BDU
to the ACU, at the request of the Defense Supply Center-Philadelphia
(DSCP), it is proposed that qualified nonprofit agencies produce an
additional 200,000 BDU trousers, 900,000 ACU coats, 900,000 ACU
trousers, and 50,000 BDU coats annually, for a period of three years.
Once the transition period is complete, the additional quantities will
be deleted from the Procurement List and the qualified nonprofit
agencies will reduce their production, back to 300,000 ACU trousers and
100,000 ACU coats.''
On June 16, 2005, DSCP took action to issue immediate Stop Work
Orders to all manufacturers of BDU uniforms of all types, including the
nonprofit agencies currently producing BDUs under the Committee's
program. The transition to the ACUs will be accelerated, without the
planned three year period of transition from BDUs to ACUs. Therefore,
the Committee decided to convert the announced addition quantities of
BDUs into the same quantities of ACUs proposed in the May 13, 2005,
notice of proposed addition (70 FR 25534). These additional quantities
of ACUs will remain on the Procurement List for a period of three years
and then will be deleted.
Under the Committee's replacement commodity regulation (41 CFR 51-
6.13(a)), the additional quantities of BDUs proposed by the May 13,
2005, notice (70 FR 25534) are automatically considered to be on the
Procurement List as ACU replacements for the BDUs, by virtue of this
notice of addition. The BDUs will also remain on the Procurement List
until there is no longer a Government requirement for BDUs.
The following material pertains to all of the items being added to
the Procurement List.
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 and
services to the Government.
2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish
the products and services 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 and
[[Page 40979]]
services proposed for addition to the Procurement List.
End of Certification
Accordingly, the following products and services are added to the
Procurement List:
