Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 05.13.11
The California High-Speed Rail Authority announced this week that USDOT has awarded California $300 million in supplemental high speed rail ("HSR") funding, bringing the state's total dedicated HSR funding to $6.33 billion. California, which has received approximately 40% of all federal HSR funds to date, intends to begin construction in 2012 on what will eventually become an 800-mile statewide HSR system, stretching from Sacramento in the north to San Diego in the south, with this massive infrastructure project funded through a combination of state bonds, federal funding, and public-private partnerships.

In Appeal of Bahadir (a C&M case), the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals denied the government’s motion to dismiss in its entirety, ruling in favor of the contractor on both key issues raised by the government. The case arises from a contract for construction work at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, under which Appellant alleged government-caused delay and filed certified prolongation claims using a “windows analysis” methodology. The government moved to dismiss, arguing that Appellant failed to state a sum certain for each of what the government characterized as 38 distinct claims, and separately that four claims had not been properly presented to the Contracting Officer.
