The reading passage contends that there are three arguments regarding to the United States government’s new and strict regulations for coal ash, which are not necessary and might actually have negative consequences. On the other hand, the lecturer brings about several points that contradict this argument.
First of all, the lecturer questions the validity of the point in the reading passage that effective environmental regulations already exist are argued by power company representatives. This is attributed to the fact that liner special materials that have currently used are not sufficient to prevent coal ash components from leaking into the soil. Those are required to use only for new landfill and ponds; however, many companies have used it for old one. In order to prevent additional coal ash, power companies would need more the liner materials. Without additional materials, chemical from the ash would be leaked and ground water would be adulterated. Eventually, the drinking water is also polluted. As long as the regulations are not erected, people would face on significant damage from them. Thus, the reading passage’s first point is invalid.
Moreover, the lecture casts doubt on the idea made by the reading passage that the recycling of coal ash into other products might be discouraged by creating strict rules for storing and handling coal ash. This is because even these regulations seems discourage the recycling, it would not work like that. For instance, in a case of mercury, these materials also have controlled by the government’s restrict regulations over fifty years. However, it works well and eventually people have lack of concern about the mercury. Consequently, the reading passage’s second point is refuted.
Last but not least, the lecturer disagrees with the idea made in the reading passage that a significant increase in disposal and handling costs for the power companies would result from the strict new regulations by the government. It is obvious that at glance view, these regulations make many power companies to take a significant cost, however, it results well wealth extra cost. Also, the disposal and handling costs are only one percent and it is not big deal from them. As a result, with such reasoning, the reading passage’s final point is contradicted.
