Description:

The document discusses issues with Leroy Cobble not following specifications for septic tank installations as required by the Indian Health Service. J.E. Oliver threatened to inform politicians and Indian leaders about the misuse of taxpayers' money if action was not taken against Cobble. Mahooty asked Oliver to keep in touch and provided information about bidding on septic tanks. Other unrelated information was discussed during the meeting. Mahooty informed that they would meet Oliver again at a Chickasaw Housing Authority meeting to clarify the role of the Indian Health Service in enforcing specifications. The report is submitted for accuracy and any further discussions can be arranged.
