Lawmakers are asking the U.S. Department of Interior to review
whether companies are shortchanging federal and state governments out of
millions of dollars in royalties on coal exported to foreign markets.
Friday's request from Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden and
Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski comes as U.S. coal exports hit a record of an
estimated 124 million tons last year.

royalties on the coal's mine price, then selling it overseas at a higher
price through affiliated brokers.

The concerns over export royalties were first reported by Reuters.
