OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE THRASHER 
 
The contracting officer’s determination of noncompliance with a cost accounting 
standard from which this appeal is taken has been withdrawn; the contracting officer 
stated that they “have determined the cost impact was immaterial.”  By motion dated 
March 31, 2023, the government moves to dismiss this appeal with prejudice since the 
contracting officer withdrew its final decision dated September 30, 2021.  The 
government states that it “has no intention of issuing another final decision with the 
same determinations as the September 30, 2021 Final Determination for the period of 
July 2016 to December 2021.”  The government asserts that this appeal is now moot.  
Appellant does not oppose the government’s motion.

“[W]hen a contracting officer unequivocally rescinds a government claim, the 
government’s action moots the appeal, leaving the Board without jurisdiction to entertain 
the appeal further.”  Scot Cardillo d.b.a. Eng’rs Tooling Support, ASBCA No. 62051, 
22-1 BCA ¶ 38,153 at 185,297 (citations omitted).  Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed 
as moot.
