Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification
I certify that the following action will not have a significant
impact on a substantial number of small entities. The major factors

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 the objectives of the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act (41 U.S.C.
8501-8506) in connection with the products and service proposed for
addition to the Procurement List.
