Dorchester acquired the rights to the Ivel preparation plant in Floyd County, Kentucky in 2010, and the plant has a 650-ton-per-hour capacity with 120-rail car, four-hour load out on the CSX rail line as well as truck delivery capabilities.
According to Enserco, the facility can process as much as 250,000 tons of coal per month, and will primarily target the 12,500-Btu-low-sulfur market segment through the use of its own, as well as third-party, production from mining operations in the area.
Enserco recently expanded its coal business which includes sourcing, transporting and storing of physical coal, into the Illinois Basin and Central Appalachian coal producing regions.
