SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Additions

    On 3/20/2015 (80 FR 14973) and 5/22/2015 (80 FR 29664), 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.

    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:

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

has determined that the services listed below are no longer suitable 
for procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 8501-8506 and

    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:

recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities.
    2. The action may result in authorizing small entities to provide 
the services 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 services deleted from the Procurement 
List.

    Accordingly, the following services are deleted from the
