Modern surface coal mining is safe, efficient…..

…and environmentally sound

Should This Land Be Mined For Coal? …IT ALREADY WAS!

North American Coal is Committed to SAFETY! 3-Time Winner of the US Department of Labor Sentinels of Safety Award recognizing the SAFEST COAL MINE IN THE COUNTRY Coteau, Beulah, ND (1985 & 2008) Sabine, Hallsville, TX (2010)

+163% Electricity from Coal - 49% NO x - 68% SO % PM 10

Source: US Energy Information Administration Coal is Abundant! Global Share of Recoverable Coal Reserves North Dakota has an over 800 year supply of Lignite Coal at today’s production levels For many countries, coal (lignite) is their only domestic energy supply

Coal Fuels the Bulk of America’s Electrical Supply US Electricity by Generation Source: US Energy Information Administration 2010

When coal-fired power goes down, electricity rates go up Electricity rate (cents/kilowatthour) North Dakota, Utah, Kentucky, Wyoming >90% coal-fired California, Maine, New York, Connecticut 10% or less coal-fired North Dakota 3 rd lowest Minnesota 23 rd lowest

Over $1 Billion of total economic impact Over $93 Million of State Tax Revenue 28,000 Jobs 4,000 Direct jobs 24,000 Indirect jobs Coal’s Economic Impact in North Dakota Source: "North Dakota Lignite Energy Industry's Contribution to the State Economy for 2009 and Projected for 2010," April 2010, Randal C.

The Real World On This Planet Earth… – USA has 307 Million People – 2.6 Billion People Live on less than $2 per day – 2 Billion People have limited access to electricity – 1.5 Billion People have no electricity at all!

China United States India Germany Developing Countries Understand the Importance of Low-Cost Electricity!

Threats to Low-Cost Electricity in the US EPA Regulations Surface Mining Regulations Administration Policies (NLRB, “Guidelines”) Foreign Demand Energy Exports Boiler MACT, Stream Protection, and other regulations are also threatening many other industries.
