This issue shows detailed quarterly data for October-December 1982, aggregated quarterly historical and projected data for 1980 through 1983, and aggregated annual historical and projected data for 1960 through 1990. Coal production declined to 1963 million short tons in the fourth quarter of 1982, down 1.9% from the previous quarter. However, total coal production for the year reached an estimated 833.4 million short tons to top the previous record of 829.7 million short tons in 1980.

Coal stocks held by producers and distributors and by consumers were considerably higher at the end of 1982 than at the end of 1981. In 1983 domestic coal consumption is projected to be 736.7 million short tons which is 4.2% higher than 1982. However, exports are expected to decline by 8.5 million short tons. Consumer stocks will not increase by as much in 1983 as in 1982. (ATT)
