Additions

After consideration of the material presented to it concerning capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the services 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 services to the Government.

2. The action will not have a severe economic impact on current contractors for the services.

3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish the services to the Government.

4. There are no known regulatory alternatives which would accomplish the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41 U.S.C. 46- 48c) in connection with the services proposed for addition to the Procurement List.

   Accordingly, the following services are hereby added to the Procurement List:

   Services

   Base Supply Center, Trident Refit Facility, Naval Submarine Base, Kings Bay, Georgia Commissary Warehousing and Janitorial, United States Naval Academy, Annapolis, Maryland Janitorial/Custodial, US Border Patrol Compound, Davis Monthan AFB, Arizona Linen Service, Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii Moving Services, Department of the Interior, Washington, DC

   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.

   Deletion

   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.

2. The action will not have a severe economic impact on future contractors for the services.

3. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish the services to the Government.

4. There are no known regulatory alternatives which would accomplish the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41 U.S.C. 46- 48c) in connection with the services deleted from the Procurement List.

   After consideration of the relevant matter presented, the Committee has determined that the service listed below is no longer suitable for procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 46-48c and 41 CFR 51-2.4. Accordingly, the following service is hereby deleted from the Procurement List:
