Public Meeting on Coal
Make your voice heard on an issue that affects the air, jobs and the presidential election. The Bureau of Land Management is soliciting public input from six meetings, where the public will be able to help identify and evaluate potential reforms to the Federal Coal Program. This is part of a formal, comprehensive review of the federal coal program. The BLM is particularly interested in gathering public input on issues such as whether Americans are receiving a fair return for federal coal, how market conditions affect coal, how federal coal affects the environment and how these and other factors impact coal-dependent communities. Salt Palace Convention Center, 100 West Temple, Friday, May 19, 10 a.m.-4 p.m., free, open to public, On.doi.gov/1NQBrfL
