Maybe Ms. Zelt should buy some "good" coal or maybe some "clean coal" instead of that 'bad coal' msu purchased. See her thoughts below on clean coal. “We had violations from our sulfur content because we’d purchased some bad coal from a vendor,” said Zelt. The nitrous oxide she said resulted from burning wet coal, and the power plant has since built a structure to house coal.
