DSCC-FLBB (Lu Ann Bocsy (614)692-3234) Michael J. Kawa, Esq. 300 Crown Building 304 South Franklin Street Syracuse, New York 13202 Re: Claim under Purchase Order SP0750-O0-M-4191 Dear Mr. Kawa: -

~3 January2006

.This is in response to your claim dated November 18; 2005 for $43,987.50 under Purchase Order SP0750-00-M-4191. By letter, dated November 22, 2005, you amended your claim to $45,275.76. The basis of your claim is that you were an assignee of funds under this purchase order;, you were a third party beneficiary to this purchase order;, and you had an implied-in-fact contract with the ¯ government under this purchase order. For the reasons stated below, your claim is denied. You were neither an assignee of funds nor a third party beneficiary under this purchase order, and you did not have an implied-in fact-contract with the government. The government awarded the purchase order to Capital City Pipes. When Capital. City Pipes asked me to change the remittance address, I did not know nor have any reason to know about your relationship to JGB. I did not intend to. assign payments to you, to establish a third-party beneficiary relationship with you, or to contract with you. As the Court of Federal Claims previously held in the case filed by JGB, it is irrelevant what Mr. Taylor knew because he cannot bind the government.

This is the final decision of the contracting officer. Although you have also addressed your claim to Carolyn Mathews, Ms. Mathews was not the contracting officer for this purchase order. This is the final decision of the contracting officer. You may appeal this decision to the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA). If you decide to appeal, you must, within 90 days from the date you receive this decision, mail or otherwise furnish written notice to the ASBCA and provide a copy to me. The notice shall indicate that an appeal is intended, reference this decision, and identify the contract or purchase order by number. With regard to appeals to the ASBCA, you may, solely at your election, proceed under the Board's small claims, procedure for claims of $50,000 or less or its accelerated procedure for claims of $100,000 or less. Instead of appealing to the ASBCA, you may bring an action directly in the United States Court of Federal Claims within 12 months of the date you receive this decision.
Sin~c.erely,

Contracting Officer
