Local brief
Boone County sits in EIA’s West Virginia coal map — read the report
EIA’s Annual Coal Report lists West Virginia among the top U.S. coal states, with county tables that include southern WV producers. Confirm tons on EIA — not on hearsay.
Neighbors in Boone County and across WV-01 already know coal shapes payrolls and local talk. The verifiable statewide picture is on the Energy Information Administration’s public coal reports.
EIA’s Annual Coal Report 2024 puts West Virginia near the top of U.S. coal production (about 79.5 million short tons in the published 2024 tables) and includes county-level mine production for West Virginia producers.
Use EIA’s coal annual tables and the West Virginia state energy analysis for production and mine counts. We are not inventing a county tonnage or a mine roster here.
