Coal output warned as orders lag and labor shifts threaten supply
The United States Geological Survey warns of a coal shortage next fall and winter if mines do not receive timely orders. Production lags five months into the year, with 10,700,000 tons weekly needed from June to January, but current output runs around 8,200,000 tons weekly. Labor shortages, foreign-born miners returning to Europe, and wage negotiations loom as risks to meeting a 500,000,000 ton annual goal.
