PATRIOT COAL CORPORATION (PCX)

Patriot Coal Corporation (NYSE: PCX) says it has resumed operations at the Federal No. 2 mine near Fairview, West Virginia. Operations at the mine were suspended on Friday, March 5 when the Company found an air quality measurement to be out of compliance with its ventilation plan. Alterations to the Company's ventilation plan have been approved by the U.S. Department of Labor, Mine Safety & Health Administration and the West Virginia Office of Miners' Health, Safety and Training. Air quality measurements are in compliance with the Company's approved ventilation plan.
A seemingly routine compliance issue, but one that might have caused problems if the response had been delayed. The upshot is that potential demerits were avoided, and perhaps even brownie points gained from regulators for the prompt response.
