               OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE THRASHER

        The contracting officer's final decision from which this appeal was taken has
been withdrawn. The parties mutually consent to the dismissal of the appeal. 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 176,974. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed as moot.
