Bolen, W P

The U.S. Bureau of Mines (USBM) annual survey of domestic peat producers in the 48 contiguous United States reflected a 3% increase in production accompanied by the closure of two U.S. peat operations in the States of Maine and Michigan and the first full year of operations at a new Minnesota peat mine. Sales volume fell 6% to just more than 0.6 million tons, although the total value of producer sales increased slightly to $16.8 million, f.o.b. plant. Idled and discontinued operations continued to liquidate stocks.
