ACTION: Notice of Waiver to the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Configured Tape Library Storage Equipment. SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is granting a class waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Configured Tape Library Storage Equipment, Product Service Code (PSC) 7025 Automated Data Processing (ADP) Input/Output and Storage Devices, PSC 7035 ADP Support Equipment, and PSC 7045 ADP Supplies, under the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 334112 (Computer Storage Device Manufacturing). The basis for waiver is that no small business manufacturers are supplying these classes of products to the Federal government. The effect of this waiver will be to allow otherwise qualified small businesses to supply the products of any manufacturer on a Federal contract set aside for small businesses, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned (SDVO) small businesses or Participants in SBA’s 8(a) Business Development Percent (BD) Program. DATES: This waiver is effective August 4, 2010. 5.500 FOR FURTHER INFORMATI0N CONTACT: Ms. Edith Butler, Procurement Analyst, by 2.750 telephone at (202) 619–0422; by FAX at (202) 481–1788; or by e-mail at 6.000 Edith.Butler@sba.gov. The number assigned to this disaster for physical damage is 12231 B and for economic injury is 12232 0. The State which received an EIDL Declaration # is: Oklahoma. BILLING CODE 8025–01–P 42173 Section 8(a)(17) of the Small Business Act (Act), 15 U.S.C. 637(a)(17), and SBA’s implementing regulations require that recipients of Federal supply contracts set aside for small businesses, SDVO small businesses, or Participants in the SBA’s 8(a) BD 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. 13 CFR 121.406(b), 125.15(c). 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. 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 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\20JYN1.SGM 20JYN1 42174 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 138 / Tuesday, July 20, 2010 / Notices proposal for a contract solicitation or received a contract from the Federal government within the last 24 months. 13 CFR 121.1202(c). The SBA defines ‘‘class of products’’ based on the Office of Management and Budget’s NAICS. In addition, SBA uses PSCs to further identify particular products within the NAICS code to which a waiver would apply. The SBA may then identify a specific item within a PSC and NAICS to which a class waiver would apply. On June 7, 2010, SBA published in the Federal Register a notice of intent to waive the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Configured Tape Library Storage Equipment, PSC 7025 (ADP Input/ Output and Storage Devices), PSC 7035 (ADP Support Equipment), and PSC 7045 (ADP Supplies), under NAICS code 334112 (Computer Storage Device Manufacturing). SBA explained in the notice that it was soliciting comments and sources of small business manufacturers of these classes of products. No comments were received in response to this notice. SBA has determined that there are no small business manufacturers of these classes of products, and is therefore granting the waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Configured Tape Library Storage Equipment, PSC 7025 (ADP Input/ Output and Storage Devices), PSC 7035 (ADP Support Equipment), and PSC 7045 (ADP Supplies), under NAICS code 334112 (Computer Storage Device Manufacturing).

Rule 0–4 (17 CFR 275.0–4) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (‘‘Act’’ or ‘‘Advisers Act’’) (15 U.S.C. 80b–1 et seq.) entitled ‘‘General Requirements of PO 00000 Frm 00108 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Papers and Applications,’’ prescribes general instructions for filing an application seeking exemptive relief with the Commission. Rule 0–4 currently requires that every application for an order for which a form is not specifically prescribed and which is executed by a corporation, partnership or other company and filed with the Commission contain a statement of the applicable provisions of the articles of incorporation, bylaws or similar documents, relating to the right of the person signing and filing such application to take such action on behalf of the applicant, and a statement that all such requirements have been complied with and that the person signing and filing the application is fully authorized to do so. If such authorization is dependent on resolutions of stockholders, directors, or other bodies, such resolutions must be attached as an exhibit to or quoted in the application. Any amendment to the application must contain a similar statement as to the applicability of the original statement of authorization. When any application or amendment is signed by an agent or attorney, rule 0–4 requires that the power of attorney evidencing his authority to sign shall state the basis for the agent’s authority and shall be filed with the Commission. Every application subject to rule 0–4 must be verified by the person executing the application by providing a notarized signature in substantially the form specified in the rule. Each application subject to rule 0– 4 must state the reasons why the applicant is deemed to be entitled to the action requested with a reference to the provisions of the Act and rules thereunder, the name and address of each applicant, and the name and address of any person to whom any questions regarding the application should be directed. Rule 0–4 requires that a proposed notice of the proceeding initiated by the filing of the application accompany each application as an exhibit and, if necessary, be modified to reflect any amendment to the application. The requirements of rule 0–4 are designed to provide Commission staff with the necessary information to assess whether granting the orders of exemption are necessary and appropriate in the public interest and consistent with the protection of investors and the intended purposes of the Act. Applicants for orders under the Advisers Act can include registered investment advisers, affiliated persons of registered investment advisers, and entities seeking to avoid investment adviser status, among others.

AGENCY: U.S. Small Business Administration.

ACTION: Notice of Waiver to the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Configured

SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is granting a 
class waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Configured Tape Library 
Storage Equipment, Product Service Code (PSC) 7025 Automated Data 
Processing (ADP) Input/Output and Storage Devices, PSC 7035 ADP Support 
Equipment, and PSC 7045 ADP Supplies, under the North American Industry 
Classification System (NAICS) code 334112 (Computer Storage Device 
Manufacturing). The basis for waiver is that no small business 
manufacturers are supplying these classes of products to the Federal 
government. The effect of this waiver will be to allow otherwise 
qualified small businesses to supply the products of any manufacturer 
on a Federal contract set aside for small businesses, Service-Disabled 
Veteran-Owned (SDVO) small businesses or Participants in SBA's 8(a) 
Business Development (BD) Program.

DATES: This waiver is effective August 4, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 8(a)(17) of the Small Business Act 
(Act), 15 U.S.C. 637(a)(17), and SBA's implementing regulations require 
that recipients of Federal supply contracts set aside for small 
businesses, SDVO small businesses, or Participants in the SBA's 8(a) BD 
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. 13 CFR 121.406(b), 125.15(c). 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.
    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 121.1202(c). The 
SBA defines ``class of products'' based on the Office of Management and 
Budget's NAICS. In addition, SBA uses PSCs to further identify 
particular products within the NAICS code to which a waiver would 
apply. The SBA may then identify a specific item within a PSC and NAICS 
to which a class waiver would apply.
    On June 7, 2010, SBA published in the Federal Register a notice of 
intent to waive the Nonmanufacturer Rule for Configured Tape Library 
Storage Equipment, PSC 7025 (ADP Input/Output and Storage Devices), PSC 
7035 (ADP Support Equipment), and PSC 7045 (ADP Supplies), under NAICS 
code 334112 (Computer Storage Device Manufacturing).
    SBA explained in the notice that it was soliciting comments and 
sources of small business manufacturers of these classes of products. 
No comments were received in response to this notice. SBA has 
determined that there are no small business manufacturers of these 
classes of products, and is therefore granting the waiver of the 
Nonmanufacturer Rule for Configured Tape Library Storage Equipment, PSC 
7025 (ADP Input/Output and Storage Devices), PSC 7035 (ADP Support 
Equipment), and PSC 7045 (ADP Supplies), under NAICS code 334112 
(Computer Storage Device Manufacturing).
