Decision Matter of: Ronald W. Brown File: B-292646 Date: September 30, 2003 Ronald W. Brown for the protester. Ronald W. Messerly, Snell & Wilmer, for RNPP, LLP, an intervenor. Allan Aasmaa, Esq., GSA-Public Buildings Service, for the agency. Mary G. Curcio, Esq., and John M. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.

Brown (RWB) protests the award of a contract to RNPP, LLP under solicitation for offers (SFO) No. 1AZ0062, issued by the General Services Administration (GSA) to lease space for the Bureau of the Census and The Fish and Wildlife Service in a designated area of Tucson, Arizona. RWB asserts that the property offered by RNPP is not within the designated area, and that it is located in a flood plain in violation of the solicitation. We deny the protest. The solicitation delineated the western boundary for the lease site as Bonita Avenue. SFO, amend. No. 1, § 1.2. RWB argues that the property offered by RNPP, at 201 N. Bonita Avenue, does not fall within this specified area because it is located
