                                 ORDER
 
        On June 24,  1994, Coastal Computer  Consultants Corporation
   protested  the  Defense  Mapping Agency's  denial  of  its agency
   protest  objecting  to  the  Government's  "only  new  equipment"
   requirement   for   solicitation   number   DMA800-94-R-8073   as
   synopsized in the  Commerce Business Daily.   Protester contended
   that  the  requirement  for  a  new  high  speed printer  limited
   offerors to only  a few manufacturers and was  unduly restrictive
   of full and open competition.
 
        On  June  30,   1994,  the  Board  conducted   a  prehearing
   conference, in  which the Government stated that  it would remove
   the restrictive term  providing for only new equipment.   On July
   1,  1994,   protester filed  a  motion to  dismiss this  protest.
   Respondent has no objection to protester's request.  Accordingly,
   this protest is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.  Rule 28(a).
