The preamble, recognizes that even in those situations where repair work is ongoing, but will not be completed 90 days from the date of occurrence, additional bond mull be posted. The rationale stated is "OSM believes that if delays in repair aze likely, then nornially bond amounts should be adju3ted tiA enaure that funds will be available later to pay for the repans, since delays increase the risk that permittee funds may not be available." We are at 10 yeazs plus and countingt The fact of violation has bean established by two jurisdictions; Basin has refused to repair our home for over 10 years thus rendering that option mute; the diminution of value of our home has been established by decree of the Colorado Supreme Court. UaIess Basin immediately complies with the remedial actions, as written, contained ui youc NOV then they must promptly past the additional bond in the amounts contained within. your March 2nd wrcespoizdeucc. By regulation, thcxc arc no justified reasons to continue to allow the Basin Resource permit to be under bonded. Sepazate from the need to increase the bond, if Basin fails within the 90 days to comply with your NOV then as you know, additional remedies are available to compel compliance. As noted above, I truly appreciate your diligence tin attempting to make us whole regarding our loss. If you need any additional information regazding any of the above, please See! free to contact me. Basin has subverted justice, evaded responsibility, and violated the law for over twenty years. You have the power and authority froth the Colorado Supreme Court, the IBLA, the Federal Government, and our own. State laws to compel immediate enforcement. Very truly yours, C~- 04 Auu,'l'atum
