| Saipan 80 MW Power Plant OPA denies CUC's request for reconsideration (September 22, 1998) - OPA released Decision No. BP-A016.1 reaffirming its findings and legal conclusions in an earlier decision on the appeal of Pacific Marine and Industrial Corporation & Ogden Energy Inc. (PMIC/Ogden), one of the proposers excluded by CUC from further participation on the Saipan 80 MW power plant project. This recent decision was in response to CUC's request for reconsideration filed with OPA following the granting (in part) of an earlier appeal by PMIC/Ogden. In its decision on the reconsideration request, OPA concluded that CUC's arguments provide no basis for a reconsideration of its earlier decision (Decision No. BP-A016) because those arguments have not persuaded OPA that its decision contained errors of fact or law, and have presented information which was inconsistent, irrelevant, incorrect, or lacking in merit. Accordingly, CUC's reconsideration request was denied in its entirety. OPA's earlier decision granted in part PMIC/Ogden's appeal because its review showed that CUC's determination of competitive range offers was not in compliance with CUC's own Procurement Regulations. OPA then recommended that CUC make a redetermination of the competitive range offerors in which all proposals that are reasonably susceptible of award should be included in the range.
