SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 8(a)(17) and 46 of the Small Business Act (Act), 15 U.S.C. 637(a)(17) and 657, and SBA’s implementing regulations require that recipients of Federal supply contracts set aside for small businesses (except those valued between $3,500 and $150,000), service-disabled veteranowned small businesses (SDVOSBs), women-owned small businesses (WOSBs), economically disadvantaged women-owned small businesses (EDWOSBs), or participants in the SBA’s 8(a) Business Development (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 (NMR). 13 CFR 121.406(b). Sections 8(a)(17)(B)(iv)(II) and 46(a)(4)(B) of the Act authorize SBA to waive the NMR for a ‘‘class of products’’ for which there are no small business manufacturers or processors available to participate in the Federal market. As implemented in SBA’s regulations at 13 CFR 121.1204(a)(7), SBA will periodically review existing class waivers to the NMR in order to determine whether small business manufacturers or processors have become available to participate in the Federal market. Upon receipt of information that such a small business manufacturer or processor exists, the SBA will announce its intent to terminate the NMR waiver for a class of products. 13 CFR 121.1204(a)(7)(ii). On April 8, 2008, SBA issued a Notice of Intent to waive the NMR for Safety Zone Rubber Gloves Manufacturing under NAICS 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing), and identified PSC 9999, the code for miscellaneous items. 73 FR 19132. SBA did not receive any comments, and on May 1, 2008, SBA issued a class waiver for Safety Zone Rubber Gloves Manufacturing. 73 FR 24101. On October 27, 2016, SBA received a request to terminate the NMR waiver for ‘‘Gloves, rubber (e.g., electrician’s, examination, householdtype, surgeon’s), manufacturing’’ under NAICS code 339113 (Surgical Appliance and Supplies Manufacturing), PSC 9320 (Rubber Fabricated Materials). The change of item description and PSC is in accordance with SBA’s most recent list of current class waivers to the NMR. The requester has provided evidence that there is a small business that VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:42 Mar 13, 2017 Jkt 241001 manufactures Rubber Gloves in the United States. SBA has confirmed that this small business manufacturer has submitted bids on Federal solicitations within the last 24 months. Thus, SBA is proposing to terminate the class waiver for rubber gloves manufacturing. The public is invited to comment or provide source information to SBA on the proposed termination of the NMR waiver for this class of products.
