SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION 

Small Business Size Standards: 

Waiver of the Nonmanufacturer Rule 

AGENCY: U.S. Small Business 

Administration. 

ACTION: Notice of intent to waive the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule for 

Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic 

Apparatus Manufacturing. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Small Business 

Administration (SBA) is considering 

granting a request for a waiver of the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule for 

Electromedical and Electrotherapeutic 

Apparatus Manufacturing, Diagnostic 

equipment, MRI (magnetic resonance 

imaging) manufacturing; Magnetic 

resonance imaging (MRI) medical 

diagnostic equipment manufacturing; 

Medical ultrasound equipment 

manufacturing; MRI (magnetic 

resonance imaging) medical diagnostic 

equipment manufacturing; Patient 

monitoring equipment (e.g., intensive 

care coronary care unit) manufacturing; 

PET (positron emission equipment 

tomography) scanners manufacturing; 

and Positron emission tomography 

(PET) scanners manufacturing. 

According to the request, no small 

business manufacturers supply these 

classes of products to the Federal 

government. If granted, the waiver 

would allow otherwise qualified regular 

dealers to supply the products of any 

domestic manufacturer on a Federal 

contract set aside for small businesses; 

service-disabled veteran-owned small 

businesses or SBA’s 8(a) Business 

Development Program. 

DATES: Comments and source 

information must be submitted 

November 30, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

and source information to Edith G. 

Butler, Program Analyst, U.S. Small 

Business Administration, Office of 

Government Contracting, 409 3rd Street, 

SW., Suite 8800, Washington, DC 20416. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATI0N CONTACT: 

Edith G. Butler, Program Analyst, by 

telephone at (202) 619–0422; by fax at 

(202) 481–1788; or by e-mail at 

Edith.butler@sba.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

8(a)(17) of the Small Business Act (Act), 

15 U.S.C. 637(a)(17), requires that 

recipients of Federal contracts set aside 

for small businesses, service-disabled 

veteran-owned small businesses, or 

SBA’s 8(a) Business Development 

Program provide the product of a small 

business manufacturer or processor, if 

the recipient is other than the actual 

manufacturer or processor of the 

product. This requirement is commonly 

referred to as the Nonmanufacturer 

Rule. The SBA regulations imposing 

this requirement are found at 13 CFR 

121.406(b). Section 8(a)(17)(b)(iv) of the 

Act authorizes SBA to waive the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule for any ‘‘class of 

products’’ for which there are no small 

business manufacturers or processors 

available to participate in the Federal 

market. 

As implemented in SBA’s regulations 

at 13 CFR 121.1202(c), in order to be 

considered available to participate in 

the Federal market for a class of 

products, a small business manufacturer 

must have submitted a proposal for a 

contract solicitation or received a 

contract from the Federal government 

within the last 24 months. The SBA 

defines ‘‘class of products’’ based on a 

six digit coding system. The coding 

system is the Office of Management and 

Budget North American Industry 

Classification System (NAICS). 

The SBA is currently processing a 

request to waive the Nonmanufacturer 

Rule for Electromedical and 

Electrotherapeutic Apparatus 

Manufacturing, Diagnostic equipment, 

MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) 

manufacturing; Magnetic resonance 

imaging (MRI) medical diagnostic 

equipment manufacturing; Medical 

ultrasound equipment manufacturing; 

MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) 

medical diagnostic equipment 

manufacturing; Patient monitoring 

equipment (e.g., intensive care coronary 

care unit) manufacturing; PET (positron 

emission equipment tomography) 

scanners manufacturing; and Positron 

emission tomography (PET) scanners 

manufacturing, North American 

Industry Classification System (NAICS) 

code 334510 product number 6525. 

The public is invited to comment or 

provide source information to SBA on 

the proposed waivers of the 

Nonmanufacturer Rule for this class of 

NAICS code within 15 days after date of 

publication in the Federal Register.

[Docket Nos. FMCSA–01–9561, FMCSA–03–

15268, FMCSA–05–21711] 

Qualification of Drivers; Exemption 

Renewals; Vision 

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Administration (FMCSA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of final disposition. 

SUMMARY: FMCSA previously 

announced its decision to renew the 

exemptions from the vision requirement 

in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Regulations for 25 individuals. FMCSA 

has statutory authority to exempt 

individuals from the vision requirement 

if the exemptions granted will not 

compromise safety. The Agency has 

reviewed the comments submitted in 

response to the previous announcement 

and concluded that granting these 

exemptions will provide a level of safety 

that will be equivalent to, or greater 

than, the level of safety maintained 

without the exemptions for these 

commercial motor vehicle (CMV) 

drivers. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr.

Qualifications Division, (202) 366–4001,

Office hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 5 

p.m., Monday through Friday, except 

Federal holidays. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Electronic Access 

You may see all the comments online 

through the Federal Document 

Management System (FDMS) at http:// 

www.regulations.gov. 

Background 

Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, 

FMCSA may grant an exemption for a 2- 

year period if it finds ‘‘such exemption 

would likely achieve a level of safety 

that is equivalent to, or greater than, the 

level that would be achieved absent 

such exemption.’’ The statutes also 

allow the Agency to renew exemptions 

at the end of the 2-year period. The 

Notice was published on September 27, 

2007. The comment period ended on 

October 29, 2007. 

Discussion of Comments 

FMCSA received no comments in this 

proceeding. 

Conclusion 

The Agency has not received any 

adverse evidence on any of these drivers
