BILLING CODE 6353-01-P COMMITTEE FOR PURCHASE FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE BLIND OR SEVERELY DISABLED Procurement List; Additions and deletions AGENCY: Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled. ACTION: Additions to and deletions from the Procurement List. SUMMARY: This action adds product(s) and service(s) to the Procurement List that will be furnished by nonprofit agencies employing persons who are blind or have other severe disabilities, and deletes product(s) from the Procurement List previously furnished by such agencies.
DATES: *Date added to and deleted from the Procurement List:* July 17, 2022. ADDRESSES: Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled, 1401 S Clark Street, Suite 715, Arlington, Virginia 22202-4149. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael R. Jurkowski, Telephone:
(703)603-2117, Fax:
(703)603-0655, or email *CMTEFedReg@AbilityOne.gov* . 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, 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. 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) 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. End of Certification Accordingly, the following product(s) are deleted from the Procurement List: Product(s) *NSN(s)—Product Name(s):* 8465-00-656-0816—Bag, Laundry, Self-Closing, Ropeless *Designated Source of Supply:* Ability Building Center, Inc., Rochester, MN *Contracting Activity:* DLA TROOP SUPPORT, PHILADELPHIA, PA *NSN(s)—Product Name(s):* MR 1023—Holder, Pot, Deluxe, Green *Designated Source of Supply:* Alphapointe, Kansas City, MO *Contracting Activity:* Military Resale-Defense Commissary Agency *NSN(s)—Product Name(s):* MR 1124—Basket, Suction, Sink, Steel MR 13035—Dispenser, Sugar, Plastic MR 13074—Set, Bowls, Glass, Prep, 4 Piece *Designated Source of Supply:* CINCINNATI ASSOCIATION FOR THE BLIND AND VISUALLY IMPAIRED, Cincinnati, OH *Contracting Activity:* Military Resale-Defense Commissary Agency Michael R.
