## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools to determine the financial security (bonds) required by regulatory agencies for land restoration. It allows AI agents to calculate initial bond amounts using `calculate_initial_bond`, perform `calculate_annual_adjustment` for economic shifts, generate a `generate_release_schedule` for fund recovery, and ensure regulatory compliance with `validate_compliance_coverage`.

## Tools

### calculate_annual_adjustment
Updates the existing bond requirement to account for economic and operational changes

### generate_release_schedule
Provides a projection of when funds can be released back to the operator

### calculate_initial_bond
Determines the starting bond amount required at the beginning of an operation

### validate_compliance_coverage
Checks if the current bond amount is sufficient to cover the estimated third-party costs for the remaining work

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the initial bond for 500 acres of surface recontouring using the US_MINING_STANDARD.
```

**Response:** 
```
The required initial bond amount is $250,000 based on the US_MINING_STANDARD.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the release schedule for a $100,000 bond with a completed milestone of soil remediation at 100%?
```

**Response:** 
```
The funds for the soil remediation milestone ($50,000) are eligible for release following the next annual inspection.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Check if a $50,000 bond is enough to cover a $45,000 remaining cost with a 15% buffer.
```

**Response:** 
```
No, the bond is insufficient. The required amount is $51,750, leaving a shortfall of $1,750.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate the starting bond amount?**
You can use the `calculate_initial_bond` tool by providing the disturbed area, the reclamation scope, and the regulatory method.

**Can I adjust the bond for inflation?**
Yes, the `calculate_annual_adjustment` tool is designed to update bond requirements based on inflation, area changes, and complexity shifts.

**How do I know if my bond is sufficient?**
Use the `validate_compliance_coverage` tool to check if your current bond covers the remaining scope cost plus the required contingency buffer.
