(1) Upon the incapacity of a surety by reason of bankruptcy, insolvency or suspension or revocation of its license, the permittee shall be deemed to be without bond coverage, and shall promptly notify the department in the manner described in the bond. The department, upon notification received through the procedures of this rule or from the permittee, shall, in writing, notify the operator who is without bond coverage and specify a reasonable period, not to exceed 90 days, to replace bond coverage. If an adequate bond is not posted by the end of the period allowed, the operator shall cease coal extraction and shall comply with the provisions of ARM 17.24.522 and shall immediately begin to conduct reclamation operations in accordance with the reclamation plan. Mining operations must not resume until the department has determined that an acceptable bond has been posted.
