Coal distribution, January-December 1984. [USA; 1984; by coal producing district]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5832362
This Energy Information Administration (EIA) report continues the quarterly series on coal distribution started in 1957 by the Bureau of Mines. The publication provides volume data on coal distribution by coal-producing district, consumer use, and method of transportation necessary for EIA to fulfill its data collection functions as authorized by Sections 5 and 13 of the Federal Energy Administration Act of 1974 (P.L. 93-275) as amended. The report is widely distributed to Federal and State agencies, the coal industry, and the general public. All data for 1980-1984 in this report are final. Beginning with the first quarter of 1984, this report was redesigned as part of the continuing efforts of the Energy Information Administration (EIA) to publish accurate and timely energy information at minimal cost. In order to provide accessible coal distribution data to a variety of clients in formats that are useful to them, the following major changes have been made in the structure of data within this report: (1) The format for tables involving data presented by coal-producing district of origin is revised allowing these tables to be printed on significantly fewer pages. In particular, Tables 7 and 8 (formerly Table 9) were reduced from 59 to 27 pages. The grouping of coal-producing districts by five coal-producing areas (Tables 2 and 3 and Figures 1 and 2) was replaced with a grouping by three coal-producing regions (see the Glossary for a definition of these regions). In addition to the changes outlined above, beginning stocks were deleted in Table 1. The Office of Coal, Nuclear, Electric and Alternate Fuels gratefully acknowledges the cooperation of the respondents in supplying the details that made this report possible. 5 figures, 57 tables.
