Regulators Seek Fines
KENTUCKY....
Federal regulators say it's time the operators of Double A Mining Inc., B. King Coal and King Brothers Coal, all of Knott County, pay more than $600,000 in unpaid health and safety fines. Regulators have filed a lawsuit against Double A, King Brothers Coal, B. King Coal, Kermit and Alice Hall and Larry and Barry King, alleging all were involved in operating the No. 4 mine. The mine was shut down last year because of unpaid fines ... the first time in the nation.
