                dures, 4 C.1.R., Part 20 (1976), however, provides:

                   (b) Request for reconsideration ... a decision
                   of the Comptroller General shall be filed not
                   later than 10 days after the basis for recon-
                   sideration in known or should have been known,

                   in this section mean. receipt.in the General
                   Accou.ting Office.

               The basis for General's request for reconsideration is essentially
               the same as its basis for originallytprotesting to this Office and,
               'therefore, was known to General at the time our decision was issued
               on November 15, 1976. Since General did not file its request for
               reconsideration until 19 working days after the original decision,
               its request for reconsideration must be dismissed as untimely.
