ACTION: Proposed collection; comment request. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled is announcing an opportunity for public comment on the proposed collection of certain information by the agency. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Federal agencies are required to publish notice in the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information, and to allow 60 days for public comment in response to the notice. This notice solicits comments on requirements relating to the annual certifications of nonprofit agencies serving people who are blind or who have other severe disabilities (Forms 403 and 404). DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before September 14, 1999. ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to: Daniel Werfel, Desk Officer for the Committee for Purchase, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th Street, NW, Room 10235, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503. Requests for information, including copies of the form and supporting documentation, should be directed to: Beverly L. Milkman, Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled, Crystal Gateway 3, Suite 310, 1215 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202-4302, (703) 603-7740. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Committee has two annual certification forms, one for nonprofit agencies serving people who are blind and one for nonprofit agencies primarily serving people who have other severe disabilities. The information included on the forms is required to ensure that nonprofit agencies participating in the Committee's program continue to meet the requirements of 41 USC 46-48c. The form has been modified to request that the previously reported JWOD direct labor hours be broken down into two separate categories: those generated from services, and those generated from products. The form has also been revised so that previously reported non-JWOD sales are broken down to show any sales from other Federal Government contracts separately. Beverly L. Milkman, Executive Director.
