    On 3/11/2011 (76 FR 13362-13363), the Committee for Purchase From 
People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice of proposed

    Following the publication in the Federal Register of the initial 
notice containing this and other projects, the Committee received a

addition of the proposed list of product or service requirements to the 
Procurement List. While the comment did not specify a particular 
project, the commenter stated that adding these items would deny small 
business the opportunity to compete for these projects in the future.
    The Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act and its legislative history 
unmistakably show that Congress understood the importance of job 
creation for people who are blind or have severe disabilities that 
would take place when products or services are added to the Procurement 
List. Through the Act, Congress directed the Committee to make

severely disabled. Congress also realized that the decisions could 
impact other groups. Therefore, when the Committee makes appropriate 
determinations to add items to the Procurement List, it is meeting its 
statutory responsibility. In this case, the Committee has determined 
that this project is suitable for procurement by the government and 
will be added to the Procurement List.
    After consideration of the material presented to it concerning 
capability of qualified nonprofit agency to provide the service and 
impact of the addition on the current or most recent contractors, the 
Committee has determined that the service listed below is suitable for 
procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41 CFR 
51-2.4.

Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification

than the small organizations that will provide the service to the 
Government.
    2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to provide 
the service 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 service proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List.
