Montana coal lease sale set for


February 28 BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — Fed-


eral offi cials will hold a lease sale on Feb. 28 for 35.5 million tons of pub- licly owned coal near Roundup. The sale marks the second time


the Bureau of Land Management has offered the underground coal tracts for lease. The agency in November rejected a $5.3 million offer from Signal Peak Energy as insuffi cient. Signal Peak wants another sale to be held because acquiring the leases is a key component of its mining plan. The coal tracts are in the path of Signal Peak’s 300-employee Bull Mountain mine. Signal Peak is jointly owned by


two Ohio companies, Boich Co. and FirstEnergy, and the Gunvor Group of Europe.


The BLM has not disclosed how much it thinks the coal is worth.
