Coal Price Revisions Target Thin Vein Mines and Receivers
Uplifted coal prices are anticipated for mines with unusually thin veins and those under receivers to keep them operating profitably. Individual mines may gain licensing and pricing tied to cost of production plus a profit margin while broader districts see general changes. The National Gas and Electric Association urged Garfield to exempt electric display signs from coal-use restrictions, arguing such ads are essential utilities.
