DECISIDI


FILE:  B-185397


DATE:  June 28, 1976


MATTER OF: Vanguard Pacific, Inc. - Reconsideration


j  g 3g  7


DIGEST:

       Request for reconsideration filed more than 10 days
       after basis for request is known is dismissed as
       untimely.


       By request filed June 15, 1976, Vanguard Pacific, Inc.
 (VPI) seeks reconsideration of our decision in Vanguard
 Pacific, Inc., B-185397, May 12, 1976, 76-1 CPD 313. Section
 20.9(b) of our Bid Protest Procedures, 4 C.F.R., Part 20 (1976),
 however, provides:

       Request for reconsideration of a decision
       of the Comptroller General shall be filed
       not later than 10 /workinj/ days after the
       basis for reconsideration is known or should
       have been known,.whchever is earlier. The
       term 'filed' as used in this section means
       receipt in the General Accounting Office.

 The basis for the VPI request for reconsideration is essentially
 the same as its basis for originally protesting to this Office
 and, therefore, was known to VPI at the time our decision was
 issued on May 12, 1976. Since VPI did not file its request for
 reconsideration until 22 working days after the original decision,
 its request for reconsideration must be denied as untimely.




                         For The Comptroller eneral
                                 of the United States
