This Sept. 18, 2008 file photo shows a mountaintop removal mining site at Kayford Mountain, W.Va. The House is taking up a bill to prevent the Obama administration from imposing a stream-protection rule for coal mining that government experts say would  eliminate thousands of jobs. The rules are supposed to replace Bush-era regulations that set up buffer zones around streams and were aimed chiefly at mountaintop removal mining in Appalachia. Republicans say they are part of Obama's "war on coal.'' (AP Photo/Jeff Gentner, File)
