Teco Coal officials announce layoffs

EASTERN KENTUCKY (WYMT) - Around 90 employees are being laid off from the Teco Coal Corporation.

Director of Personnel, Paul Matney, says no mines are shutting down but they are reducing their manpower and staffing, which will reduce some production.

Matney said that the layoffs are at several locations and are the result of the economic conditions of the coal market.

He says more information will be released Friday.
