Sunshine Act Meetings, 65336 [2024-17851]

Download as PDF 65336 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 154 / Friday, August 9, 2024 / Notices The Committee finds good cause to dispense with the 30-day delay in the effective date normally required by the Administrative Procedure Act. See 5 U.S.C. 553(d). This addition to the Committee’s Procurement List is effectuated because of the expiration of the U.S. Air Force Custodial Service, Maxwell Air Force Base, Montgomery, AL contract. The Federal customer contacted and has worked diligently with the AbilityOne Program to fulfill this service need under the AbilityOne Program. To avoid performance disruption, and the possibility that the U.S. Air Force will refer its business elsewhere, this addition must be effective on 8/25/2024, ensuring timely execution for a 9/1/2024 start date while still allowing 16 days for comment. The Committee also published a notice of proposed Procurement List addition in the Federal Register on 5/10/2024 and did not receive any comments from any interested persons. This addition will not create a public hardship and has limited effect on the public at large, but, rather, will create new jobs for other affected parties—people with significant disabilities in the AbilityOne program who otherwise face challenges locating employment. Moreover, this addition will enable Federal customer operations to continue without interruption. Deletions On 7/5/2024 (89 FR 55590), the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice of proposed deletions from the Procurement List. This notice is published pursuant to 41 U.S.C. 8503 (a)(2) and 41 CFR 51–2.3. After consideration of the relevant matter presented, the Committee has determined that the service(s) listed below are no longer suitable for procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 8501–8506 and 41 CFR 51–2.4. connection with the service(s) deleted from the Procurement List.
