Comments were received from two associations representing agencies and merchants authorized to provide full-food services to military dining facilities under the Randolph-Sheppard Act. Both associations expressed their belief that the mess attendant service and cook support project identified in this Procurement List addition should be considered a full-food service project subject to the Randolph-Sheppard Act. The Air Force Performance Work Statement, as well as documentation from the contracting activity, confirms that the specific requirements of this project do not include full-food service or the operation of a cafeteria. Government personnel will operate and manage the dining facilities and the AbilityOne nonprofit agency will provide dining support services. When full-food service is not required and the Department of Defense needs dining support services, those services are appropriate for performance by a qualified AbilityOne nonprofit agency. Therefore, following its deliberative review of the suitability of this project, the Committee For Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled determined that the mess attendant service and cook support project does not involve full-food service and will be added to the Procurement List.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Addition

    On 11/9/2012 (77 FR 67343-67344), the Committee for Purchase From 
People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice of proposed 
addition 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. 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 organization 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 USC 8501-
8506) in connection with the service proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List.

End of Certification

    Accordingly, the following service is added to the Procurement 
List:

Service

Service Type/Location: Mess Attendant Service and Cook Support, Two 
Seasons Dining Facility, 447 North Street, Building 2207, Eielson 
Air Force Base, AK.
NPA: Lakeview Center, Inc., Pensacola, FL.
Contracting Activity: Dept of the Air Force, FA5004 354 CONS LGC, 
Eielson AFB, AK.

    Comments were received from two associations representing 
agencies and merchants authorized to provide full-food services to 
military dining facilities under the Randolph-Sheppard Act. Both 
associations expressed their belief that the mess attendant service 
and cook support project identified in this Procurement List 
addition should be considered a full-food service project subject to 
the Randolph-Sheppard Act.
    The Air Force Performance Work Statement, as well as 
documentation from the contracting activity, confirms that the 
specific requirements of this project do not include full-food 
service or the operation of a cafeteria. Government personnel will 
operate and manage the dining facilities and the AbilityOne 
nonprofit agency will provide dining support services. When full-
food service is not required and the Department of Defense needs 
dining support services, those services are appropriate for 
performance by a qualified AbilityOne nonprofit agency. Therefore, 
following its deliberative review of the suitability of this 
project, the Committee For Purchase From People Who Are Blind or 
Severely Disabled determined that the mess attendant service and 
cook support project does not involve full-food service and will be 
added to the Procurement List.
