._.. .., <br />Juty zo,199s <br />Page 3 <br />RE: Tatum complaint <br />investigation of our complaints against Basin Resowces in a non-bias manner confirms <br />that the State and OSM protecx only those with money and power, not the individual. <br />During our civil trial against Basin Resources, Inc., it was discovered that Basin <br />Resources inc. had conducted a survey of our property that confirmed subsidence had <br />occurred. Basin Resources, Inc. hid this survey from us until the trial. Did Basin also <br />hide these facts from DMG and OSM? No, these results were provided to DMG during <br />the normal course and scope of the federal reporting requirements. Why then did DMG <br />deny we were suffering from coal mine subsidence? Why did OSM affum the State's <br />fmding that no subsidence damage existed on our property? <br />The appeal we filed with the Land Board in December, 1995, is still pending. I <br />am enclosing a copy of my recent letter to Bruce Babbitt ss well as my request for <br />information for ce8ain records to the FOIA ollyoer. <br />I invite any of the addressees herein to respond to my inquiries, observations <br />and/or thoughts. Once upon a time, local, state and federal representatives fought for the <br />rights of the individual. Now we see, the soles of their shoes right before they extinguish <br />the citizen's rights in favor of big business. <br />Very truly yours, <br />Apr Ts2trm <br />AT/ah <br />F~tclosum <br />Ce: Citizen Coal Council <br /> <br />
