The incoming Trump Administration is expected to roll back many federal regulations that were put in place over the last eight years. Among them could be clean air rules aimed at coal fired power plants.
South Dakota Public Utilities Commission Chairman Chris Nelson says some roll back would make sense….

Nelson says he doesn’t think relaxing those clean air rules would slow down renewable energy development….

Nelson says there will be winners and losers….

Trump has said he will push for expansion of coal production, and also to complete oil pipelines to add to the country’s energy mix.
