Coal Company Pleads Guilty to Mine Safety Violations

By Erica Peterson and WFPL News

Manalapan Mining Company--which operates in Harlan County--and two of the company's top officials are pleading guilty to charges they willfully violated mine safety rules. I've reported on Manalapan Mining's troubles before...the company was cited by the Mine Safety and Health Administration for numerous violations during a surprise impact inspection, then indicted by a grand jury for violating mine safety laws.
