SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION
Small Business Size Standards:
Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule
U.S. Small Business
Administration.
ACTION: Notice of denial to waive the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for Water
Treatment Chemicals.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business
Administration (SBA) is denying a
request for a waiver of the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for Water
Treatment Chemicals based on our
recent discovery of small business
manufacturers for these classes of
products. Denying this waiver will
require recipients of contracts set aside
for small businesses, service-disabled
veteran-owned small businesses, or
SBA’s 8(a) Business Development
Program to provide the products of
small business manufacturers or
processors on such contracts.
DATES: This notice of denial is effective
April 10, 2006.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Edith Butler, Program Analyst, by
telephone at (202) 619–0422; by FAX at
(202) 481–1788; or by e-mail at
edith.butler@sba.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
8(a)(17) of the Small Business Act (Act),
15 U.S.C. 637(a)(17), requires that
recipients of Federal contracts set aside
for small businesses, service-disabled
veteran-owned small businesses, or
SBA’s 8(a) Business Development
Program provide the product of a small
business manufacturer or processor, if
the recipient is other than the actual
manufacturer or processor of the
product. This requirement is commonly
referred to as the Nonmanufacturer
Rule.
The SBA regulations imposing this
requirement are found at 13 CFR
121.406(b). Section 8(a)(17)(b)(iv) of the
Act authorizes SBA to waive the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for any ‘‘class of
products’’ for which there are no small
business manufacturers or processors
available to participate in the Federal
market.
As implemented in SBA’s regulations
at 13 CFR 121.1202(c), in order to be
considered available to participate in
the Federal market for a class of
products, a small business manufacturer
must have submitted a proposal for a
contract solicitation or received a
contract from the Federal government
within the last 24 months. The SBA
defines ‘‘class of products’’ based on a
six digit coding system. The coding
system is the Office of Management and
Budget North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS).
The SBA received a request on
December 12, 2005 to waive the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for Water
Treatment Chemicals. In response, on
January 18, 2006, SBA published in the
Federal Register a notice of intent to
waive the Nonmanufacturer Rule for
Water Treatment Chemicals. SBA
explained in the notice that it was
soliciting comments and sources of
small business manufacturers of these
classes of products. In response to that
January 18, 2006 notice, SBA received
comments from small business
manufacturers indicating that they have
furnished these products to the Federal
government. Accordingly, based on the
available information, SBA has
determined that there are small business
manufacturers of these classes of
products, and, is therefore denying the
class waiver of the Nonmanufacturer
Rule for Water Treatment Chemicals,
NAICS codes 325188 and 325199.
Dated: March 20, 2006.

Associate Administrator for Government
Contracting.
