TPO-41 - Integrated Writing Task Burning coal in power plants produces a waste product called coal ash, a material that contains small amounts of potentially harmful chemicals Environmentalists in the United States are concerned about the damage such harm

The reading specifies that there are three main reasons supporting the idea that the new regulations for handling and storing coal ash are not needed. However, the lecture casts doubt on this claim and brings up three reasons to reject specific points made in the reading passage.

First, the author asserts that enough regulations already exist related to handling and storing coal ash. On the other hand, the lecture states that the regulations that we have now are not sufficient. In fact, existed regulations are only applied to new companies, and it does not include old companies.

Second, based on the reading, new striker rules may cause consumers to stop buying the products. In contrast, the lecture contradicts this claim, reasoning that we should consider how people responded to other restrictions. For example, there are very strict regulations related to Mercury restoration, but people recycle Mercury for over 40 years, so it is unlikely that consumers stop recycling coal ash.

Third, the reading's last point state that creating new regulations can increase costs. Nonetheless, the professor challenges this claim by explaining that the costs will increase, but these costs increase the bill only one percent that is not a big price to pay for having a clean environment.
