Description: This is a point dataset representing operable electric generating plants in the United States by energy source. This includes plants that are operating, on standby, or short- or long-term out of service. The surveys collect data on all plants with a combined nameplate capacity of 1 MW or more. Source: EIA-860, Annual Electric Generator Report, EIA-860M, Monthly Update to the Annual Electric Generator Report, and EIA-923, Power Plant Operations Report. Data period: August 2021.

Description: This is a point dataset representing operating surface and underground coal mines in the United States in 2018. These data originate from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, Form EIA-7A "Coal Production and Preparation Report" and the U.S. Department of Labor, Mine Safety and Health Administration Form 7000-2, "Quarterly Mine Employment and Coal Production Report." For additional mine data see "Historical Detailed Coal Production Data": http://www.eia.gov/coal/data.cfm#production

Description: The polygons attempt to show the extent of known underground mines in Ohio. The AUM_MINES_MRM dataset contains updated features originally extracted from the Abandoned Underground Mines information by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Geological Survey.Original data was provided by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Geological Survey. Funding was awarded by The U.S. Office of Surface Mining to update the dataset from a 2016 grant titled "Ohio Underground Mine GIS". Principal Authors: Ben McCament, Chris Freidhof, Lee Sorrell. Project Staff: Kate Blyth, Eugene Hancock, Gracie Keyes, Jackie Kloepfer, Sarah Maj, Nora Sullivan, Paul Verga.

Description: The Surf_Mines dataset contains a subset of features extracted from two datasets maintained by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Mineral Resources Management (DMRM). The first polygon layer known as SurfMines_AMLIS was developed in 2006. The source of data for SurfMines_AMLIS was AMLIS Quad maps that were edited in 1980/81 as part of the initial AMLIS inventory. The paper quadrangles (quads) were utilized in aerial/terrestrial reconnaissance. Areas were demarcated as being affected by surface mining and the status of reclamation was noted. In 2006 the AMLIS Quads were scanned and digitized by the Ohio Penal Industries (OPI) producing the SurfMines_AMLIS polygon layer. The second polygon layer known as SurfMines_DRG was developed in 2008/2009. The source of data for SurfMines_DRG was current digital United States Geological Server (USGS) Quadrangles otherwise known as Digital Raster Graphic(s) (DRGs) downloaded from the Ohio Geographically Referenced Information Program (OGRIP) in 2008. Areas demarcated as being affected by surface mining were digitized by the Institute for Local Government Administration and Rural Development (ILGARD) at Ohio University producing the SurfMines_DRG polygon layer. Care was taken to reduce duplication of data contained in the new dataset. The first step was to isolate areas from each surface mine dataset that could have abandoned mine land problems and also be funded according to the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act (SMCRA). Since no one data source fits our needs the spatial boundaries of known C & D coal permits were used to remove polygons from the AMLIS and DRG datasets. The next step utilized the DMRM produced AMLIS dataset as a base, once the C & D permits were removed the AMLIS dataset was overlapped with the DRG dataset and a reverse selection was made from the DRG dataset. The end result was a layer that included all polygons from the AMLIS dataset that did not overlap with C & D permits and also all polygons from the DRG dataset that did not overlap with C & D permits or overlap with the AMLIS dataset.
