This is the first publication of the Fossil Energy Information Program repored from information obtained in a nationwide survey conducted from September 1977 to April 1978. Information was received on over 15,000 energy and energy-related R and D projects in progress from 1976 through 1978. Over two thousand of these projects are concerned with coal research and development. General information and statistical summary tables of funding and manpower are provided for these selected projects. Basic information on all 15,000 projects is available on the Department of Energy's RECON (Remote Console) computer system. Each of the 2,031 research project descriptions in this publication is related to one of the following Coal and Coal Products Categories: Processing, By-Products, Properties, Waste Management, Environmental Aspects, Reserves and Exploration, Mining, Transportation and Handling, Combustion, Marketing and Economics, Health and Safety, or Regulations. To eliminate the necessity of listing a project description in more than one place, a cross-referencing system has been utilized. Each research project has one primary category and appears only once in the inventory.
