James River Coal Cited Over Kentucky Mine
KENTUCKY....
Richmond, Virginia-based James River Coal Co. said in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing Wednesday that the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration issued an imminent danger citation December 10th after a miner was caught with an open pack of cigarettes and a lighter at one of its mines in Kentucky. The company did not identify the mine, other than to say it is operated by its Bledsoe Coal subsidiary. Bledsoe operates eight mines and processing plants in Leslie and Harlan counties. James River submitted a plan to MSHA to prevent people from bringing cigarettes and other smoking materials into its mines.
