SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Additions

    On 7/7/2023 and 7/21/2023, 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

[[Page 62067]]

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):
    6140-01-624-2917--Battery, Storage, 12V, Lead Acid, 15 Amp Hours
    6140-01-619-9474--Battery, Storage, 12V, Lead Acid, 8.5 Amp 
Hours
    6140-01-237-8005--Battery, Storage, 12V, Lead Acid, 1.2 Amp 
Hours
    6135-01-370-2599--Battery, Nonchargeable, 3.6V, Lithium
Designated Source of Supply: Eastern Carolina Vocational Center, 
Inc., Greenville, NC
Contracting Activity: DEFENSE LOGISTICS AGENCY, DLA LAND AND 
MARITIME
List Designation: C-List
Mandatory for: 100% of the requirement of the Department of Defense

Service(s)

Service Type: Custodial Service
Mandatory for: US Navy, Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren 
Division, Dahlgren, VA and Pumpkin Neck Annex Explosive Location, 
King George, VA
Designated Source of Supply: ServiceSource, Inc., Oakton, VA
Contracting Activity: DEPT OF THE NAVY, NSWC DAHLGREN

    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 
Department of the Navy, NSWC Dahlgren's, Custodial Service, NSWCDD, 
Dahlgren, VA and Pumpkin Neck Annex, King George, VA 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 
the NSWC Dahlgren will refer its business elsewhere, this addition 
must be effective on September 27, 2023, ensuring timely execution 
for an October 1, 2023 start date while still allowing 19 days for 
comment. The Committee also published a notice of proposed 
Procurement List addition in the Federal Register on July 11, 2023 
and did not receive any comments from any interested persons. 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 8/4/2023, 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.

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 additional reporting, 
recordkeeping or other compliance requirements for small entities.
    2. The action may result in authorizing small entities to 
furnish the product(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) deleted from the 
Procurement List.

End of Certification

    Accordingly, the following product(s) are deleted from the 
Procurement List:
