SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Additions On 12/18/2009 (74 FR 67176–67177), the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice of proposed additions to the Procurement List. Comments were received from the incumbent contractor indicating that adding Warehouse—Receiving & Distribution Services to the Procurement List would result in negative economic and business impact to its company. The contractor also commented that it has worked in partnership with the government for over nine years to provide consistently excellent service, innovation and best value. Finally, the contractor questioned the qualifications and capabilities of persons with certain disabilities to perform some of the functions of this service. The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled (Committee) operates pursuant to statutory and regulatory requirements. Committee decisions on what items are suitable for addition to the Procurement List are specifically VerDate Nov<24>2008 18:05 Feb 18, 2010 Jkt 220001 guided by regulations in 41 CFR Chapter 51. The Committee regulation states that for a commodity or service to be suitable for addition to the Procurement List each of the following criteria must be satisfied: Employment potential; nonprofit agency qualifications, capability, and level of impact on the current contractor for the commodity or service. The Committee, as an independent federal agency, is responsible for implementing the Javits-Wagner-O’Day Act. In accordance with the Act and the Code of Federal Regulations, the Committee determines which products and services produced and/or provided by nonprofit agencies employing people who are blind or with other severe disabilities are suitable for procurement by the government. The members independently consider and appropriately decide whether each product or service meets its established criteria for addition to the Procurement List. While the incumbent contractor has stated that this addition would result in adverse impact to his company, the evaluation by the Committee had determined that it would not result in severe adverse financial impact. The Committee has also determined that the nonprofit agency—and its employees— is capable and qualified to provide the service to the government. Therefore, in this situation, all four criteria have been evaluated by the Committee and the service has been determined to be suitable for addition to the Procurement List. The Committee appreciates the struggle of small business at the local level to maintain training and employment opportunities. However, the obligation of the Committee is to focus on increasing opportunities for nonprofit agencies employing people who are blind or with other severe disabilities. 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. 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 PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 7451 other compliance requirements for small entities other than the small organizations that will furnish the products and services to the Government. 2.
