SAVAGE COAL TERMINAL - Permit ACT/007/022
Savage Coal Terminal (SCT), previously known as C. V. Spur Coal Processing and Loadout Facility, is currently owned by Savage Industries, Inc. This loadout was purchased in 1977 from Utah Power and Light Company, which used the site for coal loading. Since 1977, both coal loading and processing have occurred at the facility. A permanent program permit was issued on August 6, 1984 to Beaver Creek Coal Company, subsequently Mountain Coal Company. The permit transfer to Savage Industries was approved on July 6, 1995.
The permit area, comprising 154 acres, is located approximately four miles south-southeast of Price, Utah and approximately one mile from the Price River floodplain. The site is characterized by gently sloping terrain. Soils are fine textured and saline, supporting a salt desert vegetation community.
Approximately three million tons of coal per year is handled through SCT, although the facility is capable of handling up to eight million tons per year. Duration of this operation is at least 25 years.
