ACTION: Notice of periodic review of approved class waivers from the Nonmanufacturer Rule for products in effect as of March 17, 2009. SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is conducting a periodic review of approved class waivers from the Nonmanufacturer Rule for products in effect as of March 17, 2009. The purpose of this notice is to determine if there are any small business manufacturers or processors for the products listed on the list of PO 00000 Frm 00124 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 approved class waivers. The basis for a waiver is that no small business manufacturers are supplying these classes of products to the Federal government. The effect of a waiver would be to allow otherwise qualified small businesses dealers to supply the products of any manufacturer on a Federal contract set aside for small businesses, service-disabled veteranowned small businesses or participants in SBA’s 8(a) Business Development Program. DATES: Comments and source information must be submitted within April 27, 2009. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Edith G.

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, 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. SBA’s regulations provided the same for procurements set aside for service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns 13 CFR 125.15. This requirement is commonly referred to as the Nonmanufacturer Rule. See 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. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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. 13 CFR 1202(c). The SBA defines ‘‘class of products’’ based on the Office of Management and Budget’s North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), and product service codes. The following are products listed on SBA’s list of Approved Class Waivers in Effect as of March 17, 2009. E:\FR\FM\26MRN1.SGM 26MRN1
