OPINION ON CROSS-MOTIONS FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
PHILIP R. MILLER, Judge:
In this suit, plaintiff contends that the government breached its contract to provide mortgage insurance of $3,085,500 for construction of an apartment project. The alleged breach stems from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) reducing the amount of the insurance to only $3,057,000. The government contends that the reduction was authorized by the terms of the contract, and that plaintiff consented to such reduction in return for HUD’s approval of a change order in the construction.
