                                        - 37 -                                        
               Schommer and Sons has been the contractor for all                      
               of the facilities I jointly own with my employer                       
               here on the Corbett farm [the Rivercliff property].  I                 
               own the cottage and an interest in the barn.  My                       
               employer owns the new house (still under construction)                 
               and the tennis court (my wife and I don’t even play                    
               tennis).  These other facilities owned by my employer                  
               (NCPL) are for the purpose of company use and various                  
               entertainment for my employer and at his discretion.                   
               (1) I do not have a complete figure, as much of the                    
                    work is still in progress.  Also the portion                      
                    that is my employer’s ownership I have not                        
                    obtained his consent to release financial figures                 
                    that are not of my personal ownership interest.                   
               (2) Various renovations first began in early 1998 and                  
                    are still ongoing as directed by my employer.                     
               (3) I funded the cost of the Cottage renovations (our                  
                    residence) and some work on the barn.  My                         
                    employer had funded the balance and considers all                 
                    of these as such, his property.                                   
               On February 18, 2004, Agent Rans mailed petitioner a Form              
          4564, Information Document Request, requesting:  (1) Petitioner’s           
          Federal income tax returns for 2000, 2001, and 2002; (2) copies             
          of all monthly bank statements from December 1, 2000, through               
          January 31, 2002; and (3) records substantiating farm expenses              
          deducted in 2001 and 2002.  Respondent also separately requested            
          SSI’s bank statements to determine the source of the funding for            
          the development of the Rivercliff property.                                 
               Petitioner provided respondent bank statements for two                 
          accounts he held with US Bank and for one account he held with              
          Wells Fargo Bank.  All three accounts were held in the United               
          States.  Petitioner also provided the requested Federal income
