   Federal Building in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  
 
        By motion filed July 12,  2000, the parties stipulated to an
   award of damages  in accordance with their  settlement agreement,
   executed on July 11, 2000, which provides in part:
 
        GSA agrees to pay and  Marino agrees to accept the lump
        sum of  One Million, Nine Hundred  Eighty-Five Thousand
        Dollars ($1,985,000.00),  inclusive of  costs, interest
        and  attorney's fees, in  full and final  settlement of
        all disputes  arising under  or related  to GSBCA  Nos.
        14342, 14343 and 15066.
 
        GSA   shall  pay  interest   to  Marino  at   the  rate
        established  by the  Secretary  of  the Treasury  under
 
        Section 12  of the  Contract Disputes  Act of  1978, 41
        U.S.C.   611,  on the $1,985,000.00  if payment is  not

        this  Settlement  Agreement.    Interest  on  the award
        amount shall begin on the 46th day and accrue according
        to  the Contract Disputes  Act until the  United States
        pays the award amount.

   or  relief from,  the Board's  decision, and  that they  will not
   appeal this decision.
