Pike County Mine Lays Off Workers
Premier Elkhorn Coal Company, a subsidiary of TECO Coal, has laid off about one hundred miners, who will be paid through June 19th., at their PE4 and PE5 mines located in Pike County and along the Pike-Letcher County border. TECO says the economy and depressed coal market have created a drastic cut-back in orders, but, right now, there are no more layoffs planned.
