DIGEST:

     Prior decision declining to consider ob-

     Little Harbor Poatyard Corporation requests chat
we reconsider our decision, Little Harbor Boatyard
Corporation, B-205027, November 10, 1981, 81-2 CPD 397
in which we refused to consider Little Harbor's ob-
jections regarding the failure of the National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to award it a
grant under the Saltonstall-Kennedy Act, 15 U.S.C.
S 713c-3 (1976), as amended by the American Fisheries
Promotion Act, Title II, Pub, b. 96-561, 94 Stat, 3287.
We did so because we generally do not consider complaints
concerning the award of grants or other Federal financial
assistance,  Although Little Harbor strenuously objects
to our decision not to review its complaint, for the
reasons given below, we find Little Harbor's objections
to be without merit and we affirm our' prior decision.

Accordingly, Little Harbor requested that we direct
NOAA to stay the award procedure until its proposal
could be evaluated as a national proposal.
