Tennessee legislature approves $1M for coal mine industry regulation

View Comments After some fits and starts, the Tennessee General Assembly pushed legislation through this spring that will bring a floundering, nearly dormant coal industry back under state control. It will cost nearly $1 million a year to do it, even though oversight was originally promised to be free. Coal mines in Tennessee produced exactly the same amount of coal in the second, third and fourth quarters of last year: 0 tons. That haul, or lack thereof, continues a trend where the state of Tennessee mines less coal than all other coal-producing states but one.   Even still, lawmakers pushed the bill through with the price tag that will cost taxpayers. After it s signed by Gov. Bill Lee and after the federal government approves the move, the legislation would shift control of the coal mining industry from the federal government to state regulators. It s a move to bring back control since Tennessee lost that privilege due to poor management in the 1980s.
