Long <br />Uinsion Director <br />RE: Treasury Bonds/Notes Requirements <br />Per our recent conversation regarding requirements for treasury bonds posted <br />as a reclamation bond, the following should be met: <br />A book-entry Treasury security may consist of a Treasury bond, note, or <br />bill issued under the Second Liberty Bond Act. With book-entry deposits, <br />no actual handling of the physical securities themselves is involved. <br />These securities are held in the book-entry system of a Federal Reserve <br />Bank (FRB). <br />2. The security may be purchased from a Federal Reserve bank directly or <br />from a broker. The book-entry security must be purchased in a sum equal <br />at its face value to the amount of bond required. <br />3. The permittee must be the owner of the security. The permittee must <br />provide the State of Colorado/Mined Land Reclamation Board with a copy of <br />their "Statement of Account" or the broker's receipt showing the <br />permittee as the registered owner along with Mined Land Reclamation's <br />"Coal Reclamation Bond for Use With U.S. Treasury Note" form and a "Power <br />of Attorney" to collect, sell, transfer, or assign the security in the <br />case of default (bond forfeiture). <br />4. The permittee must have their commercial bank pledge the security to the <br />account of the State of Colorado/Mined Land Reclamation Board (and U.S. <br />Government/Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, if <br />federal mine) through the nearest Federal Reserve bank. The Federal <br />Reserve will then issue a joint custody receipt in the names of the <br />commercial bank, the MLRB and OSM and mail this receipt to the bank, who <br />in turn, needs to mail the receipt to the Division of Minerals and <br />Geology, Mined Land Reclamation Office, 1313 Sherman Street, Room 215, <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 for safekeeping. <br />6. The Tax ID number used must be the permittee's. All interest accrued <br />will go direct to the permittee. <br />If you have any questions, please contact Deborah Mulloy of this office at <br />(303) 866-3567. <br />5145E <br />
