BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) A Montana judge says environmentalists can move forward with a lawsuit that challenges the state s leasing of 587 million tons of coal to a St. Louis company.
District Judge Joe Hegel in a ruling released Monday rejected an attempt by the state and Arch Coal, Inc. to dismiss the case.
Arch bought the lease on the undeveloped Otter Creek coal reserves near Ashland last March for $86 million and future royalties. Four environmental groups later sued, claiming the sale should have been reviewed under the Montana Environmental Policy Act.

It was a turbulent year across financial markets, and a handful of mutual funds were taken for a ride in 2020 when it came to their performance rankings.
In general, fund rankings which show a fund s performance compared with other funds in their Morningstar Categories tend to not move much over the course of a year, especially for longer-term track records. However, dramatic reversals in markets, such as what investors experienced in 2020, can lead some funds with heavy portfolio tilts to see a sudden shift higher or lower.

Coal’s ascendancy looks set to leave already ailing U.S. miners stuck in a pit. Within five years, the black rock is likely to replace oil as the world’s top energy source, according to the International Energy Agency. That should be good news for America’s miners, which are sitting on 28 percent of the planet’s coal. But they’re ill placed to do well from the boom.
America’s reserves equate to several hundred years of the nation’s current coal consumption. They’re also about 50 percent larger than Russia’s, which has the second-largest set of seams. Combined, the two countries burn about 1.2 billion tonnes of King Coal a year, equivalent to the 16 percent increase in global consumption the IEA expects by 2017.
