SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On January 25, 2002, the Committee for 
Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published 
notice (67 FR 3683) of proposed additions to the Procurement List. 
After consideration of the material presented to it concerning 
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the service and 
impact of the additions on the current or most recent contractors, the 
Committee has determined that the services listed below are suitable 
for procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c 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:
    1. The action will not result in any additional reporting, 
recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities other 
than the small organizations that will furnish the service to the 
Government.
    2. The action will not have a severe economic impact on current 
contractors for the service.
    3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the service.
    4. There are no known regulatory alternatives which would 
accomplish the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-ODay Act (41 U.S.C. 46-
48c) in connection with the service proposed for addition to the 
Procurement List.
    Accordingly, the following service is added to the Procurement 
List:

Services

    Service Type/Location: Janitorial/Custodial, VA Medical Center, 
Salem Primary Care Clinic, Salem, Oregon.
    NPA: The Garten Foundation, Salem, Oregon.
    Contract Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs.
    This action does not affect current contracts awarded prior to the 
effective date of this addition or options that may be exercised under 
those contracts.
