Fayette County President Judge Gerald R. Solomon has denied a request for an injunction against a Strattanville company operating a surface coal mine in Dunbar Township, but ordered that no blasting occur at the site.
Solomon issued an order denying the injunction to force the company stop mining on Wednesday on behalf of Judge John F. Wagner Jr., who will hold a hearing on the matter at 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 6 in Courtroom 2.
Solomon heard arguments on the case on Wednesday morning in Wagner’s absence.
