     Attention: Edwin J. Kliegman

Gentlemen:

     We acknowledge receipt of your complaint regarding
a provision of Solicitation No. RFP DTCG 39-81-R-00257,
issued by the Coast Guard.

     Protests which are based on alleged improprieties
in a solicitation which are apparent prior to the time
of bid opening or the initial closing date for the
receipt of proposals must be filed prior to bid open-
ing or the closing date if they are to be considered
on the merits. 4 C.F.R. § 20.2(b) (1) (1980). The clos-
ing date here was April 7, 1981. Since the matter you
have complained about was apparent prior to that time,
the protest filed on June 1, 1981 is untimely and will
not be considered.

     We regret we cannot be of assistance at this time.


Sincerely yours,



Harry.R. Van Cleve
Acting General Counsel
