                     OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE THRASHER

            By motion dated September 28, 2018, the government moves to dismiss the appeal as
    moot since the contracting officer rescinded its final decision dated May 11, 2018. The
    government states it "is no longer asserting the claim from which ASBCA No. 6173 5
    arises." By letter dated October 3, 2018, appellant stated it does not object to the
    government's motion to dismiss. When a contracting officer rescinds a government claim
    and the final decision asserting that claim, the voluntary action moots the appeal, leaving the
    Board without jurisdiction to entertain the appeal any further. URS Federal Support
    Services, Inc., ASBCA No. 60364, 17-1BCA136,587. Accordingly, the appeal is                       I
                                                                                                      I
    dismissed as moot.
