Book Description
This report was initially prepared to place special emphasis on the relative importance of the Indian land and people resources in the Northern Great Plains and to show some of the impacts on these Indian resources associated with coal development. This report draws heavily on studies developed for the Crow Reservation because it is the only one on which substantive coal activity is taking place and the coal resource on the reservation is reasonably well inventoried. This study of anticipated socio-economic effects can be conceptually applied to other reservations anticipating large-scale mineral development. Situations will no doubt be different but the socio-economic impacts are likely to be remarkably similar.

Book Description
This report contains a description of the Social and Economic Assessment Model, which is used to analyze the social and economic effects of energy development at the regional and county levels. Using the SEAM, the effects of coal mines and coal-fired utilities projected for over 340 US counties are examined. The study utilizes a clustering algorithm to determine the assimilative capacity of a county, that is, the county's ability to sustain the effects of an influx of population and thus an increased demand on its resources. The results of the clustering algorithm are used, together with county demographic data, as well as data on projected facility location, size, timing, and type, to estimate socioeconomic effects in terms of public costs that will be imposed on the affected populations. These results are aggregated to the regional level to give a rough estimate of the relative regional effects of coal development. The results indicate that 93% of the entire long-term, adverse impact from coal will be borne by states and counties of the Rocky Mountain area, whereas only 14% of the short-term impacts will be borne by this region. About 42% of the short-term costs will occur in the Southern region and 33% in the North Central region, but only 5% of the long-term costs are estimated for these two regions. Of the four major Census regions (Northeast, South, North Central, and West) only the Northeast is expected to be relatively free of community growth problems caused by coal development.
