FROM: David Leroy [CIT Leader]
TO: KNF High Command
SUBJECT: Request for a new base in Shikoku System
ENCRYPTION: Simple
PRIORITY: Normal

Greetings,

My name is David Leroy and I will try to introduce myself in a few words.
Born on Denver Planet, I worked until now as a freelancer trader and later, as a member of Interspace Commerce. After 6 years of work (of which 1 year as a official member of IC), I decide to move with my family, from Liberty in Kusari Space.
Together with other 4 friends, I formed a small group called Coalition of Independent Traders. In short, CIT is a very small legal coalition of independent traders.

About CIT:
- the main activity of CIT is to sell products from Liberty to Kusari and vice versa. - work carried out by us is absolutely legal and our transactions are comply to Kusari Legal Codex.
- all members of CIT are equipped only with a Firefly Transport, Freelancers ID and "CIT-" reserved tag. (We have also some IR-7 "Raven's Talon" Civilian Very Heavy Fighters and E78-12 "Spatial" Civilian Deep Space Explorers in order to protect our transport ships. We don't have any other ship types. We are traders not a military organization!)

Now... after a long internal debate, we decided it would be the time to build a house for our coalition, so we request permission to build a base in the vicinity of Deshima Station (Shikoku System).
According to section 8.6 of Kusari Legal Codex, we want to deploy our base in 6E Sector, at 4.2k from Deshima Station and 4.4K from Battleship Myoko. The name of our base we want to be Muroto Trade Center (Muroto was the name of a small town from old Japan, in Sol System).

About Muroto Trade Center:
- our base will have Freelancer tag.
- base location will not obstruct tradelanes, docking points or other areas of heavy traffic flow.
- in accordance with section 3, all members of CIT will never violate the cargo and equipment restrictions.
- we will incorporate the name tags of all lawful Kusari authorities into our base administration computer, so they can dock anytime there.
- our base will not be used as staging ground or repair depot for groups that are hostile to Kusari.
- at the express request of Kusari Naval Forces High Command, we will grant permission for inspection of our base (in this case, the password management will be provided only on a secure channel) to prove the work done by us is in legal terms.

As we not found any specification in Kusari Legal Codex about payment of a fee for placing a base in that system, please provide us more details if there is a tax.

We look forward for a response from you (hopefully it will be positive) and we will provide any other details about purpose of creating this base, on this communication channel.

//L.E. - P.S.: Thank's to [KNF]KDS-Hyuga for the guidance.

Best regards,
David Leroy
CIT Leader (Coalition of Independent Traders)
