According to an Associated Press【C3】______of the data, 20 mostly coal-fired power plants in 15 states account for the top-releasing facilities.

A proposed regulation to address pollution from new power plants could be released as early as this month.【C6】______, the EPA will have to tackle facilities already in operation. The largest emitters will be the first in line.

Two other power plants owned by Southern were the second-and third-largest polluters nationally: the Bowen plant in Bowen, Ga. , and the James H. Miller, Jr. power plant in Quinton, Ala.
American Electric Power, another large coal-fired power producer, has three power plants in the top 20. They are in Rockport, Ind. , Cheshire, Ohio, and St. Albans, W. Va.
"This is just another way to【C8】______the largest coal-fired power plants in the country," said AEP spokesman Pat Hemlepp. "We always assumed we would be No. 1 in greenhouse gas emissions or No. 2 behind Southern Co. We and Southern are the two largest【C9】______of coal. "
The other states with【C10】______power plants are Texas, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Wyoming, North Carolina, Kansas and Kentucky.
Refineries were the second-largest source of greenhouse gas emissions, with 57% of the reported total. The top states in greenhouse gas emissions from power plants and from refineries were Texas, Pennsylvania, Florida, Ohio, and Indiana.
Congress required industries to report their emissions as part of a 2008 spending bill. Until now, the agency has estimated greenhouse gas emissions by industry sector. [br] 【C2】
