2) If the Lansing Board of Water
and Light was fined that day for
exceeding its permit on toxic releases, I'd inform folks that the
Board
was the 16th (I'd double check the real number!) most polluting
facility
in Michigan this year discharging (let's say) 400,000 tons of
sulfur
dioxide into the community that year.
400,000 tons? Way, way off!! Even the largest SO2 source in
the
state, the Detroit Edison Monroe Power Plant, did not discharge
this much in its high sulfur coal heydays. (although it got
close!!)
