OSMRE seeks comment on draft EIS for San Juan Coal's mining plan modification

The U.S. Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement announced that a draft environmental review is available for public comment on San Juan Coal Co.'s proposed modification that provides for continued development of its deep lease extension.

The Westmoreland Coal Co. subsidiary intends to extend its mining operations through 2033 to supply roughly 3 million tons of coal per year to the San Juan Generating Station.

The initial plan proposed to recover six million tons of coal until the announced closure of two of its four coal-fired units.

The public is invited to provide electronic or written comments for the draft environmental impact statement during the 45-day comment period, beginning July 9.
