* Data round to zero.
       Source: U.S.  Department of Labor, Mine Safety and Health Administration, Form 7000-2, "Quarterly Mine Employment and Coal Production Report."
       Notes: Coal production is attributed to the county in which the mine originally opened.  Production excludes silt, culm, slurry dam, and dredge operations except for Pennsylvania anthracite.  Totals may not equal sum of components due to independent rounding.
