More than 90 percent of the 37 million tons of coal shipped on the Lakes
last year was mined in a state or province that does not border the
waterway.  Sixty percent originated 1,150 miles away in the Powder River
Basin that runs through Montana, Wyoming and Colorado.  West Virginia
leads states that mine eastern coal.  Pennsylvania is the largest Great
Lakes state shipping coal on the waterway.  These coal statistics help
illustrate the national impact of Great Lakes shipping.  See attached
for more details.
