The reading and the lecture both contradict each other, in terms of regulation for handling and storing coal ash. The author of the article states that the government's strict rules for coal ash are not necessary and might have negative consequences. However, the lecturer casts doubt about the claim mentions in the article and refutes all the theories explains in the article. He says that the idea is not effective.
First of all, according to the reading, existed regulations on the company are adequate. On the contrary, the speaker negates the arguments presented in the passage. Furthermore, he discusses that based on the current rules, liners are only used for building new ponds and lands which are not sufficient. Chemicals from the old lakes and land are contaminated to the drinking water. Thus, it is required to follow strict new rules for new as well as old premises.
Secondly, the author posits that consumers would stop buying these products if they have found it dangerous. Although the lecturer refutes this by asserting that there are many other products such as Mercury, which is also dangerous material and companies do follow strict rules for their handling and storage. However, consumers never stopped buying the material like mercury. Thus, it would not affect much with strict regulations.
Finally, it is mentioned in the article that new rules would dramatically raise the price of electricity which may not be good for the general public. On the other hand, the speaker believes that analyst has found that new rules have increased around 15 billion dollars which means consumers would pay just one percent of the increase in their bill and that is not much cost for having a clean environment.
