MATTER OF: Jones Seeding & Sprigging Co.


DIGEST:


     When contract is properly awarded under the
     small purchase procedures, but actual value
     of work performed exceeds $10,000 limit,
     agency may pay for unforeseen additional
     work at original unit prices.


     The Soil Conservation Service (SCS), Department of
Agriculture, requests an advance decision on payment of
a claim submitted by Jones Seeding & Sprigging Co. for
plunge basin repair at the Jack Creek Watershed Project.
The claim arises from a purchase order issued by the
SCS office in Stillwater, Oklahoma. We find that the
contract was properly awarded under the small purchase
procedures, applicable at the time to procurements that
do not exceed $10,000, and that SCS may pay Jones for
the additional work performed, even though it exceeds
that amount.

    Original quantities and unit prices for equipment,
materials, labor, and incidentals required to perform
the erosion control measures at Jack Creek Watershed
were as follows:

Mobilization
Earthfill

Riprap
