Overview

The USGS has worked in partnership with the State geological surveys of Kentucky, West Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia to complete this assessment. In addition to evaluating energy production potential, coal resource assessments can be used to aid in the identification of areas with potential for coal-bed methane production, mine flooding, surface subsidence, and acid mine drainage.
