SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Additions

    On 12/17/2021, 1/14/2022, and 1/28/2022, the Committee for Purchase 
From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice of 
proposed additions to the Procurement List. This notice is published 
pursuant to 41 U.S.C. 8503 (a)(2) and 41 CFR 51-2.3.
    After consideration of the material presented to it concerning 
capability of qualified nonprofit agencies to provide the product(s) 
and service(s) and impact of the additions on the current or most 
recent contractors, the Committee has determined that the product(s) 
and service(s) listed below are suitable for procurement by the Federal 
Government under 41 U.S.C. 8501-8506 and 41 CFR 51-2.4.

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 
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 product(s) and 
service(s) to the Government.
    2. The action will result in authorizing small entities to furnish 
the product(s) and service(s) 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 product(s) and service(s) proposed 
for addition to the Procurement List.

[[Page 20825]]

End of Certification

    Accordingly, the following product(s) and service(s) are added to 
the Procurement List:

Service Type: Custodial and Related Services
Mandatory for: GSA PBS Region 4, Carroll A. Campbell Jr. U.S. 
Courthouse, Greenville, SC
Designated Source of Supply: SC Vocations & Individual Advancement, 
Inc., Greenville, SC
Contracting Activity: PUBLIC BUILDINGS SERVICE, PBS R4 CAROLINAS 
CONTRACTS

    The Committee finds good cause to dispense with the 30-day delay in 
the effective date normally required by the Administrative Procedure 
Act. See 5 U.S.C. 553(d). This addition to the Committee's Procurement 
List is effectuated because of the expiration of the General Services 
Administration (GSA), Custodial and Related Services, GSA Reg 4, 
Carroll A. Campbell Courthouse, Greenville, SC contract. The Federal 
customer contacted and has worked diligently with the AbilityOne 
Program to fulfill this service need under the AbilityOne Program. To 
avoid performance disruption, and the possibility that GSA will refer 
its business elsewhere, this addition must be effective on May 1, 2022, 
ensuring timely execution for a May 1, 2022, start date while still 
allowing 23 days for comment. The Committee published a notice of 
proposed Procurement List addition in the Federal Register on January 
28, 2022 and did not receive any comments from any interested persons, 
including from the incumbent contractor. This addition will not create 
a public hardship and has limited effect on the public at large, but, 
rather, will create new jobs for other affected parties--people with 
significant disabilities in the AbilityOne program who otherwise face 
challenges locating employment. Moreover, this addition will enable 
Federal customer operations to continue without interruption.
