ACTION: Notice of intent to waive the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for
Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic
Apparatus Manufacturing.

AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business
Administration (SBA) is considering
granting a request for a waiver of the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for
Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic
Apparatus Manufacturing, Diagnostic
equipment, MRI (magnetic resonance
imaging) manufacturing; Magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) medical
diagnostic equipment manufacturing;
Medical ultrasound equipment
manufacturing; MRI (magnetic
resonance imaging) medical diagnostic
equipment manufacturing; Patient
monitoring equipment (e.g., intensive
care coronary care unit) manufacturing;
PET (positron emission equipment
tomography) scanners manufacturing;
and Positron emission tomography
(PET) scanners manufacturing.
According to the request, no small
business manufacturers supply these
classes of products to the Federal
government. If granted, the waiver
would allow otherwise qualified regular
dealers to supply the products of any
domestic manufacturer on a Federal
contract set aside for small businesses;
service-disabled veteran-owned small
businesses or SBA’s 8(a) Business
Development Program.
DATES: Comments and source
information must be submitted
November 30, 2007.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments

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 is currently processing a
request to waive the Nonmanufacturer
Rule for Electromedical and
Electrotherapeutic Apparatus
Manufacturing, Diagnostic equipment,
MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)
manufacturing; Magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) medical diagnostic
equipment manufacturing; Medical
ultrasound equipment manufacturing;
MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)
medical diagnostic equipment
manufacturing; Patient monitoring
equipment (e.g., intensive care coronary
care unit) manufacturing; PET (positron
emission equipment tomography)
scanners manufacturing; and Positron
emission tomography (PET) scanners
manufacturing, North American
Industry Classification System (NAICS)
code 334510 product number 6525.
The public is invited to comment or
provide source information to SBA on
the proposed waivers of the
Nonmanufacturer Rule for this class of
NAICS code within 15 days after date of
publication in the Federal Register.

Qualification of Drivers; Exemption
Renewals; Vision
Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration (FMCSA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of final disposition.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: FMCSA previously
announced its decision to renew the
exemptions from the vision requirement
in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Regulations for 25 individuals. FMCSA
has statutory authority to exempt
individuals from the vision requirement
if the exemptions granted will not
compromise safety. The Agency has
reviewed the comments submitted in
response to the previous announcement
and concluded that granting these
exemptions will provide a level of safety
that will be equivalent to, or greater
than, the level of safety maintained
without the exemptions for these
commercial motor vehicle (CMV)
drivers.

Electronic Access
Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315,
FMCSA may grant an exemption for a 2year period if it finds ‘‘such exemption
would likely achieve a level of safety
that is equivalent to, or greater than, the
level that would be achieved absent
such exemption.’’ The statutes also
allow the Agency to renew exemptions
at the end of the 2-year period. The
Notice was published on September 27,
2007. The comment period ended on
October 29, 2007.
Discussion of Comments
FMCSA received no comments in this
proceeding.
Conclusion
The Agency has not received any
adverse evidence on any of these drivers
that indicates that safety is being
compromised. Based upon its
evaluation of the 25 renewal
applications, FMCSA renews the
Federal vision exemptions for Calvin D.
