Dear Mr. Pegnato:

A statement of, or document expressing, the reason (s) why GA0 l did not select Cotton & Company -r Please specify any portions of the materials provided which have not been released to the public.

Dear Ms. Bartnoff:

I am responding to your letter of September 24, 1992, on behalf of your i l client, Cotton & Company. In your letter you allege that your client "... recently learned that it was not selected for a significant audit contract with the General Accounting Office ("GA0") primarily because of a negative report from Mr. Walker to the GA0 evaluation panel regarding Cotton & Company's performance on its NRC engagement." We have reviewed your allegation that Mr. Walker misused his position and took unjustified actions. Federal personnel conducting a procurement commonly contact other Federal agency personnel to inouire about past performance of companies bidding for their contracts, We believe that { add j OC's statement after review - either that Mr. Walker' actions were l justified, or that we find that they were not justified and apologize. If the actions were not justified state corrective actions taken.} This agency has not participated in the GA0 procurement process. Therefore, it would be inappropriate for us to comment further on your allegation. We are sending a copy of your letter to GA0 for their consideration (see attached).

Please be assured that there is no debarment of Cotton & Company under consideration at NRC. { Statement of regret that this procurement has not been successful?l Sincerely, t James M. Taylor Executive Director i for Operations
