         The Honorable F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr.
         Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary
         House of Representatives

         Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement Audit
                  Reports for the National Mining Hall of Fame and Museum for 1999
                  and 1998

         Dear Mr. Chairman:

         As requested, we reviewed the audit reports covering the financial statements of the
         National Mining Hall of Fame and Museum, a federally chartered corporation, for the
         years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. The corporation's purposes include
         honoring people who have made contributions to the establishment, development,
         advancement, or improvement of mining in the United States; and establishing and
         maintaining a library and museum for collecting and preserving the history of mining.

         Federally chartered corporations are required under 36 U.S.C. 10101 to

            present the corporation's assets and liabilities and reasonable detail on the
            corporation's income and expenses in annual financial statements,

            obtain an annual financial audit by an independent public accountant, and

            submit the auditors' reports and the corporation's financial statements to the
            Congress.

         The objective of our review was to determine whether the audit reports complied
         with the financial reporting requirements of the law. In carrying out our work, we
         reviewed the corporation's financial statements and the accompanying notes,
         performed certain analytical procedures related to information presented in the
         financial statements, reviewed the auditors' reports, and made inquiries to
         corporation officials or the auditors as we deemed necessary. We did not review the
         auditors' working papers. Our review disclosed no reportable instances of
         noncompliance.
