         A subcontractor requested the review of the summary
dismissal by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of the
firm's appeal from an adverse decision of an EPA grantee, the
Town of Amherst, New York. Required listing of proposed
subcontractors is not a prohibition against bid shopping, and
thece was no ground for objection to a grantee approved
substitution of subcontractors by the prime contractor. There
was insufficient basis to determine that the prime :ontractor
acted for the grantee, so the prcpriety of the prime
contractor's actions was not reviewed. (Author/SC)
