Narrative:

During takeoff, immediately following the 80 KT call, we received a right engine bleed valve EICAS message. With calm winds, clear skies, and using runway 31L at jfk with 14500 ft available, I made the decision to discontinue the takeoff. Rejected takeoff was disengaged just as it began to engage, and a slow deceleration was accomplished. The tower was notified, and subsequently, the flight attendant's advised to remain in their seats. A slow taxi ensued while the brake cooling chart was consulted. It was determined that a safe return to the gate could be made and was verified by maintenance. At the gate, dispatch was consulted and following completion of the required maintenance, we continued to lax.
