   Before Board Judges HENDLEY, WILLIAMS, and VERGILIO.
 
   WILLIAMS, Board Judge.
 
        On September 29, 1993, protester Government Micro Resources,
   Inc. (GMR) filed a motion for award of  protest costs pursuant to
   Board  Rule 35(a)(1).  On  September 13, 1993, the  Board granted
   the  underlying   protest  finding  that   the  Drug  Enforcement
   Administration,  Department  of  Justice,  violated  statute  and
   regulation because the  agency awarded the contract to an offeror
   whose proposal  failed to  offer instructors  with the  mandatory
   work experience required by the solicitation.
 
        In its motion  for costs, GMR claims a  total of $42,183.13,
   representing legal  fees of  protester's outside  counsel in  the
   amount  of  $35,566.25   and  disbursements  in  the   amount  of
   $6,616.88.  On November 15, 1993, counsel for respondent informed
   the Board that  the parties have  agreed on the  final amount  of
   $42,043.13, and requested that the Board enter a judgment in this
   amount for protester.
 
                                Decision
 
        We have reviewed the detailed documentation submitted by GMR
   in support of its claimed protest costs and  find the agreed upon
   amount  to  be reasonable.    Protester's  motion  for  costs  is
   GRANTED.   GMR is entitled  to recover its  costs of pursuing the
   protest in  the amount of $42,043.13.  This  award is to be paid,
   without interest,  from the  permanent indefinite judgment  fund,
   31 U.S.C.   1304 (1988).  40 U.S.C.   759(f)(5)(C) (1988).
