                                 ORDER
 
        This  appeal  arose  from   a  contracting  officer's  final
   decision dated December 24, 1997,  denying  appellant's claim for
   certain  additional  costs  arising under  a  contract  to repair
   cooling  tower supports  in  the  Potter  Stewart  United  States
   Courthouse in  Cincinnati, Ohio.   By  order dated  September 18,
   1998,  the  Board suspended proceedings to permit  the parties to
   process  settlement documents.    On October  2, 1998,  the Board
   received  a Joint Motion  for Dismissal with  Prejudice signed by
   both  parties.    Accordingly,  this  appeal  is  DISMISSED  WITH
   PREJUDICE.
