· This study quantifies the short-run impacts of reclamation on strip mining cost, coal price, production and employment in Appalachia. Full reclamation would have reduced Strip-mined coal production by 7.5 million tons, raised coal price by $0.351 per ton, and cost 518 employment · opportunities in the Appalachian coal industry in 1972
