In our decision in Zinger Construction Company, Inc.,/B-198230, July 23, 1980, 80-2 CPD 64,(we denied the Zinger Construction Company, Inc., protest against the contracting agency's failure to clarify allegedly ambiguous portions of the specifications in a procure- ment for rehabilitation work.) We held that Zinger's concern, which was that other bidders might misinter- pret the specifications (Zinger apparently understood the specifications) and as a result might submit lower bid prices prejudicial to Zinger, was mere speculation. We noted that Zinger did not show how the alleged ambiguities would cause lower prices submissions, that misinterpretation of one of the two alleged ambiguities would result in higher rather than lower prices, and that the three lowest bids .were in line with the Government estimate. Zinger requests reconsideration of our decision on the basis that we never ruled on whether the alleged ambiguities should have been corrected by the contracting agency prior to bid opening.) Requests for reconsideration must contain a detailed statement of the factual and legal grounds upon which reversal or modification of the decision is deemed war- ranted, specifying any errors of law made or information not previously considered. /4 C.F.R. 2.0.9(a) (1980). !916 'i/ - 400 ko q0 MATTE OF:
