                             ORDER
                                
     On February 4, 2005, appellant, Myers Investigative & Security Services, Inc.,
appealed a decision by an Environmental Protection Agency contracting officer to assess
liquidated damages under a contract for the provision of security guard services.  The parties
have now settled their dispute.

     On December 26, 2006, appellant's counsel filed with the Board a notice to withdraw
the appeal, requesting that the appeal be dismissed with prejudice.  The Government does not
object.  Accordingly, this appeal is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
