Summary Updates since July 10
The Kairos Interface is recently upgraded and the Kairos Database has exceeded 215,000 regulatory records—permits, bonds, violations, and underwriters—covering 14 jurisdictions—a mix of coal, mineral, and metal commodities—in the U.S. The three new jurisdictions are Maryland, Nevada, and Utah. The Kairos Database now contains more than 8,000 active underwriter records of over $11.5 billion in aggregate underwriting exposure.
We also have cued up two more jurisdictions—Alabama and Colorado—and the addition of mineral and quarry regulatory records for Ohio and Virginia. Lastly, regulatory and bond records for jurisdictions, such as Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and others, are current as of June and July of this year.
Level of Kairos Access
This recent agency update is the last scheduled for the Kairos Trial version through the summer. The next scheduled updates are only for the Client and Subscription versions of Kairos, taking priority for updates to existing agency data and the rolling out of new data.
New Display Tables and Searchable Activities
We have been preparing and processing agency data for Oil and Gas and for Landfills and now are working on how these data will be searchable and displayed in the Kairos Interface. Likewise, for Advanced Analytics, we are designing an entirely new display table for the Kairos Interface to include such categories as Cost-To-Reclaim Estimates and Site Rankings. We plan deploying a sample of these new data on the Kairos Trial version while full implementation is prioritized on the Kairos Client and Subscription versions.
