cybersecurity; presentations on NIST 

role and research in quantum 

information science; and laboratory

COMMITTEE FOR PURCHASE FROM 

PEOPLE WHO ARE BLIND OR 

SEVERELY DISABLED 

Procurement List; Additions 

AGENCY: Committee for Purchase From 

People Who Are Blind or Severely 

Disabled. 

ACTION: Additions to procurement list. 

SUMMARY: This action adds to the 

Procurement List services to be 

furnished by nonprofit agencies 

employing persons who are blind or 

have other severe disabilities. 

DATES: Effective Date: 9/28/2009. 

ADDRESSES: Committee for Purchase 

From People Who Are Blind or Severely 

Disabled, Jefferson Plaza 2, Suite 10800, 

1421 Jefferson Davis Highway, 

Arlington, Virginia 22202–3259. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Barry S. Lineback, Telephone: (703) 

603–7740, Fax: (703) 603–0655, or email CMTEFedReg@AbilityOne.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Additions 

On 5/29/2009 (74 FR 25717–25718); 

6/12/2009 (74 FR 28028); 6/19/2009 (74 

FR 29187–29189); 6/26/2009 (74 FR 

30531–30532) and 7/10/2009 (74 FR 

33211–33212); the Committee for 

Purchase From People Who Are Blind 

or Severely Disabled published notices 

of proposed additions to the 

Procurement List. 

After consideration of the material 

presented to it concerning capability of 

qualified nonprofit agencies to provide 

the services and impact of the additions 

on the current or most recent 

contractors, the Committee has 

determined that the services listed 

below are suitable for procurement by 

the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 

46–48c 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 

services to the Government. 

2. The action will result in 

authorizing small entities to furnish the 

services to the Government. 

3. There are no known regulatory 

alternatives which would accomplish 

the objectives of the Javits-WagnerO’Day Act (41 U.S.C. 46–48c) in 

connection with the services proposed 

for addition to the Procurement List. 

End of Certification 

Accordingly, the following services 

are added to the Procurement List: 

Services: 

Service Type/Location: Food Service & Mess 

Attendants, Seabee Camp, Covington 

Guam Support Facility, Resident NMCB, 

Santa Rita, Guam. 

NPA: Able Industries of the Pacific, Santa 

Rita, Guam. 

Contracting Activity: Dept of the Navy, FISC 

Pearl Harbor, HI. 

The Federal Register identifies the 

services as ‘‘Food Service’’ and ‘‘Mess 

Attendants,’’ which are programmatic 

methods to identify the services 

provided by nonprofit agencies 

employing people who are blind or who 

have other severe disabilities within the 

AbilityOne Program. While the 

Randolph-Sheppard Act provides 

entrepreneurial management 

opportunities for blind vendors, under 

normal circumstances it does not afford 

them priority for food service, mess 

attendant and other services supporting 

the operation of a military dining 

facility short of management 

responsibilities. The Committee 

determines that the information 

provided in the Federal Register Notice 

is sufficiently clear to identify the 

services sought. There is no R–SA 

Program in place on Guam at this time. 

Service Type/Location: Dining Facility 

Attendant Service, Fort Bragg, NC. 

NPA: Employment Source, Inc., Fayetteville, 

NC. 

Contracting Activity: Dept of the Army, XR 

W6BB Ft Bragg, NC. 

The Federal Register identifies the 

services as ‘‘Dining Facility Attendant 

Service’’ which is the programmatic 

method to identify the services provided 

by nonprofit agencies employing people 

who are blind or who have other severe 

disabilities within the AbilityOne 

Program. While the Randolph-Sheppard 

Act provides entrepreneurial 

opportunities for blind vendors, under 

normal circumstances it does not afford 

them priority for food service attendant 

opportunities supporting the operation 

of a military dining facility short of 

management responsibilities. The 

Committee determines that the 

information provided in the Federal 

Register Notice is sufficiently clear to 

identify the services sought. Based on 

the information available, the 

Committee may determine that this 

service is appropriate for the AbilityOne 

Program.
