Before Board Judges GOODMAN, SULLIVAN, and NEWSOM.
GOODMAN, Board Judge.
On June 9, 2025, appellant, Coventina Water, LLC, and respondent, the Department of Veterans Affairs, filed a joint motion requesting the entry of a stipulated judgment in appellant’s favor in the amount of $15,000. Appellant waives any right it may have to claim for recovery of interest, attorney fees, costs, and expenses it may have incurred in conjunction with the appeals, except that if the settlement amount remains unpaid, Contract Disputes Act (CDA), 41 U.S.C. § 7109 (2018), interest will begin to accrue on July 28, 2025, and continue to accrue until payment is made. The parties have stipulated that they will not seek reconsideration of, seek relief from, or appeal the Board’s entry of judgment awarding the stipulated amount to appellant. See Rule 25(b) (48 CFR 6101.25(b) (2024)).
Decision
The appeal is GRANTED IN PART. Respondent shall pay $15,000 to appellant in full settlement of CBCA 8324, with CDA interest running from July 28, 2025, if payment is not yet made, until the payment date. Appellant waives any further right it may have to claim for recovery of interest, attorney fees, costs, and expenses it may have incurred in conjunction with the appeals.

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in Coventina Water, LLC, CBCA 8324. Nothing is summarized or reworded, and the sections run in the order the Board wrote them. What the page shows and the text does not repeat is the pagination furniture: the page numbers and the rules the Board draws around its caption and under its signatures. The signatures are set back into the columns the Board prints them in, each judge under the name he or she signed, and the typed copy of that name the page carries beneath each signature is not repeated.
