       By email dated 1 September 2017, appellant filed a notice of appeal with the
Board, docketed as ASBCA No. 61305. Attached to the notice of appeal was a
contracting officer's final decision dated 31 October 2016 awarding appellant
$26,126.00 on a previously filed claim. Appellant's 1 September 2017 notice of
appeal indicated appellant was now seeking to be paid $25,000.000 in interest on the
31 October 2016 award.

        By Order dated 8 September 2017, the Board directed appellant to provide the
Board with a copy of the claim for $25,000.00 submitted to the contracting officer, or
notify the Board that no such claim was submitted. By email of the same date,
appellant notified the Board that it wished to receive the contact information for the
contracting officer to whom it could submit its claim. The government provided that
contact information to appellant by email dated 22 September 2017.

       By Order dated 26 September 2017, the Board informed the parties that it
intended to dismiss this appeal unless either party objected within 14 days of that
Order. The Board received no objection from either party.
       Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed without prejudice to the submittal of a
claim to the contracting officer.
