                 OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE JAMES

       It is the Board's decision, pursuant to 41 U.S.C. §§ 7105(e), 7108(b), and the
parties' stipulation and agreement, that the appeal is sustained only with respect to
appellant's eight direct cost claim items totaling $23,987.00 which occurred between
19 April and 17 September 2004, which were not dismissed for lack of jurisdiction by
the Board's 18 June 2012 decision. TMS Envirocon, Inc., ASBCA No. 57286, 12-2
BCA ~ 35,084 at 172,295, 172,298, recon. denied, 13 BCA ~ 35,204. In the nature of
a consent judgment, the Board makes a monetary award to appellant in the amount of
$22,000.00. No Contract Disputes Act interest shall be paid. Consistent with the
parties' stipulation and agreement, this consent judgment does not address appellant's
claim items which were dismissed by the Board's 18 June 2012 decision. Nor does it
otherwise bar appellant from pursuing any appeal rights it may have respecting those
dismissed claim items.
