Limited fall in coal reserves from Appalachian strip mine curbs
CEQ study finds restricting surface mining on steep Appalachian slopes would erode less than one per cent of total U.S. coal reserves. The report supports reclamation costs as manageable and argues continued strip mining with controls is feasible, while rejecting dire shortages. It notes Appalachia provides about a third of low-sulfur coal and outlines policy steps ahead.
