The Coal Seam has finished two new episodes this month. The first, featuring Governor Tomblin and Department of Revenue Deputy Commissioner Mark Muchow is currently airing. In this episode, the Governor discusses his legislative agenda. Muchow then summarizes the current state budget, the status of coal severance collections for the current fiscal year and what he anticipates for the future.
In the second episode, which should air in March, host Chris Hamilton and guest Jason Parsons, president of Remember the Miners discuss the group and its mission.
