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.

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 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

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 services proposed for addition 
to the Procurement List.
