It discusses a proposed crash program to triple coal production to 1.5 billion tons by 1985, convert most to synthetic gas and oil, and reduce oil and natural gas use. Costs run around 15 billion plus several billion for R and D with several pilot gasification plants already funded. Environmental concerns and long timelines remain major hurdles.
