          The Honorable William L. Armstrong
          United States Senator
          1045 Lincoln Street
          Denver, Colorado 80203       --ot-make availableto public readi

          Dear Senator Armstrong:

               We refer to your letter of March 26, 1981,
          concerning the claims by Mr. Don Ravenhill for
          back wages which resulted from wage underpay-
          ments by Crosby Construction Co. (Crosby) while
          Mr. Ravenhill was an employee of Crosby. Enclosed
          is a copy of our decision of today allowing
          Mr. Ravenhill's claim for painting and carpentry
          work performed in March 1979 in connection with
          contract No. DADA03-78-C-0065 for the installa-
          tion and painting of doors at the Fitzsimons Army
          Medical Center (FAMC).

               In your letter, you expressed some concern in
          regard to the Department of Labor's (DOL) review
          since we had advised you that we were contacting DOL
          in connection with an $872.13 settlement between DOL
          and Crosby, whereas Mr. Ravenhill was claiming a total
          of $2,742.80.

               We were advised by DOL that the $872.13 ($448.33
          after legal deductions) represents back wages found
          due Mr. Ravenhill as a result of an investigation of
          Crosby, conducted by DOL's Denver Regional Office.
          This investigation covered Crosby's performance on
          five Government contracts, including Department of Army
          contract No. DADA63-78-C-0065 for construction work at
          FAMC. However, in regard to the FAMC contract, DOL
          only investigated Mr. Ravenhill's allegations that he
          worked a certain number of hours during May 1979 as
          a laborer.   While our case involves underpayments
          under the FAMC contract, it involves carpentry and
          painting which Mr. Ravenhill claims to have performed
          in March 1979. The Department of Army investigated
