Biden administration proposes blocking new coal mines at major federal hub ...Middle East

The Biden administration has moved to block new coal mines on public land in parts of Montana and Wyoming, a major U.S. coal hub.  It released two proposed plans on Thursday that would prevent companies from applying for new coal mining rights on federally-owned lands in an area known as the Powder River Basin. That basin represents 43 percent of the nation’s total coal production.  Under the plans, companies would still be allowed to extract coal under existing leases, and existing coal mining there would be expected to continue through 2060.  The administration projected that the actions between the two plans could prevent significant amounts of planet-warming emissions.
