                                 ORDER
 
        On  May 13,  1992,  P.  J.  Dick Incorporated  appealed  the
   contracting officer's  final decision regarding  the contractor's
   installation of centrifugal fans as part of the renovation of the
   U.S. Post Office and Courthouse in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  The
   contracting officer determined  that the fans were  not "domestic
   constructions," as  required  by the  Buy  American Act,  and  he
   directed the contractor to replace them.
 
        On November 13, 1992, appellant  filed a Consent Motion  for
   Dismissal Without  Prejudice.   The  motion asks  that the  Board
   dismiss  the case without prejudice to reinstatement, pursuant to
   Rule 27(c).   Appellant  states that  respondent consents  to the
   motion and that  the parties will report to  the Board concerning
   the progress of settlement negotiations within sixty days  of the
   date of this order.
 
        As  requested by  the  parties,  this  appeal  is  DISMISSED
   WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO REINSTATEMENT.  Rule 27(c).
