    18  correction in the notice, that prompt action to  correct  the  violation
    19  has  been  taken but that full correction cannot be completed within the
    20  time provided because of serious technical  difficulties,  inability  to
    21  obtain  necessary materials, funds or labor, inability to gain access to
    22  the dwelling unit wherein the violation exists, or such other portion of
    23  the building as may be necessary to make the required repair,  provided,
