SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Abstract
The primary objective of the National
Coal Resources Data System (NCRDS) is
to advance the understanding of the
energy endowment of the United States
(U.S.) by gathering and organizing
digital geologic information related to
coal, coal bed gas, shale gas and other
energy resources and related
information regarding these resources.
These data are needed to support
regional or national assessments
concerning coal, coal bed gas, and other
solid fuel occurrences. Requesting
external cooperation is the best way for
NCRDS to collect energy data and
perform research and analyses on the
characterization of coals and organicrich shale, and obtain other information
(including geophysical or seismic data,
sample collection for generation of
thermal maturity data) that can be used
in solid-fuel resource assessments and
related studies.
The USGS will issue a call for
proposals to support researchers from
State Geological Surveys and associated

accredited Universities that can provide
geologic data to support NCRDS and
other energy assessment projects being
conducted by the Energy Resources
Program.
Data submitted to NCRDS by external
cooperators constitute more than twothirds of the USGS point-source
stratigraphic database (USTRAT) on
coal occurrence. In 2012, NCRDS
supported 30 projects in 23 States. This
program is conducted under various
authorities, including 30 U.S.C. 208–1,
42 U.S.C. 15801, and 43 U.S.C. 31 et
seq. This collection will consist of
applications, proposals and reports
(annual and final).
