Additions

    On 3/2/2012 (77 FR 12816-12817) and 3/9/2012 (77 FR 14352-14353), 
the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely 
Disabled published notices of proposed additions to the Procurement 
List.
    After consideration of the material presented to it concerning 
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the products and 
service and impact of the additions on the current or most recent 
contractors, the Committee has determined that the products and service 
listed below are suitable for procurement by the Federal Government 
under 41 U.S.C. 8501-8506 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 other compliance requirements for small entities other 
than the small organizations that will furnish the products and service 
to the Government.
    2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the products and 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. 
8501-8506) in connection with the products and service proposed for 
addition to the Procurement List.

End of Certification

    Accordingly, the following products and service are added to the
