Based on the given materials, the article as well as the lecture discusses US regulations for controlling coal ash, which is a hazardous chemical. Although some power companies find the current rules sufficient, US environmentalists claim several requirements of having new stricter regulations. The author states that those power companies have some ideas for rejecting the new rules. That being said, the lecturer provides several ideas to repudiate this rejection.
Initially, the author exemplifies using liner-special materials, which precludes coal ash elements from leaking into soil, to say that current regulations are so effective. However, the lecturer explains that using those materials is only districted to builds of new landfills and it does not include adding to old constructions. As a result, it leads coal ash components to leak into the ground water, which directly is related to the drink water. So, the current rules are sufficient, only when it regulates the old constructions as well as the new ones.
Second, the writer proclaims that new regulations might affect the recycling coal ash into other useful products like concrete and bricks, by which the less the amounts of recycling, the less the demands of consumers, because of finding those materials dangerous. Yet again, the speaker underscores that this conclusion directly depends on how people respond to strict regulations for other dangerous materials, like mercury, which is a hazardous material with recycling period of over 50 years. This length of recycling period is more worrying to consumers that any other factors.
The final point of contention between the reading and listening passage is power companies’ costs. The author thinks that by new regulations, current costs of power companies will be increased by approximately ten times, which increase the price of household electricity. On the other hand, the speaker explains that extra costs for having new regulations is just 15 billion dollars, which increase the average household electricity bills by only one percent; it is really worthful for having cleaner environment.
