               OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE THRASHER

        The contracting officer's final decision from which this appeal was taken has been
rescinded. The government has moved to dismiss the appeal as moot and appellant does
                                                                                             I
not object. When 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. Combat Support Associates, ASBCA Nos. 58945, 58946, 16-1 BCA
,i 36,288 at 176,973. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed as moot.
