    INFORMATION CONCERNING MINE OPERATIONS AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
               FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999

Mine Closure

   The Company announced plans to discontinue mining operations
effective April 30, 2000.  Consequently, a provision of $48.4 million
for mine closure costs, postretirement benefits other than pensions and
workman's compensation costs  was recorded in July 1999.  The provision
is reflected in billings to Ohio Power Company and is subject to selling
price normalization which is eliminated by year-end.
