SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Additions
On 2/4/2022 and 2/25/2022, 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.
End of Certification
Accordingly, the following product(s) and service(s) are added to
the Procurement List:
Product(s)
NSN(s)--Product Name(s): 8530-00-NIB-2490--Kit, Personal Sanitizing
Designated Source of Supply: Blind Industries & Services of
Maryland, Baltimore, MD
Distribution: A-List
Mandatory For: Total Government Requirement
Contracting Activity: FEDERAL ACQUISITION SERVICE, GSA/FSS GREATER
SOUTHWEST ACQUISITI
Service(s)
Service Type: Custodial and Refuse Removal Services
Mandatory for: Bureau of Land Management,
[[Page 36469]]
Las Cruces District Office, Upham and I-25 Parking Sites, Las
Cruces, NM
Designated Source of Supply: Tresco, Inc., Las Cruces, NM
Contracting Activity: BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT, BLM ALBUQUERQUE
DISTRICT OFFICE
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). The Federal customer contacted and has worked
diligently with the AbilityOne Program to fulfill this service need
under the AbilityOne Program. To avoid the possibility that the Bureau
of Land Management will refer its business elsewhere, this addition
must be effective on July 1, 2022, ensuring timely execution for a July
1, 2022, start date while still allowing 14 days for comment. The
Committee published a notice of proposed Procurement List addition in
the Federal Register on February 25, 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.
Deletions
On 11/19/2022 and 12/23/2022, the Committee for Purchase From
People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice of proposed
deletions from 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 relevant matter presented, the Committee
has determined that the product(s) listed below are no longer suitable
for procurement by the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 8501-8506 and
41 CFR 51-2.4.

impact on a substantial number of small entities. The major factors

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) deleted
from the Procurement List.
