Coal Slurry Study Set Area Hearing Planned
A northern Virginia firm, BDM Corp. of McLean, was chosen by a joint legislative subcommittee to explore coal slurry pipeline feasibility in Virginia. The study, requested by the 1983 General Assembly, will start with a July 22 hearing at Southwestern Community College near Richlands and an August 17 hearing in Norfolk. Renowned for systems analysis, chief investigator Paul S. Souder led prior federal work on coal slurry pipelines. Virginia railroads oppose the plan due to cost and environmental concerns.
