     1. A mining operation or the generating facility of an electric utility which, in the treatment of water for reentry into public streams, distills and sells the water at a minor additional cost and offsets the total cost of the treatment and distilling process.

     2. The installation of pollution control equipment to remove air pollutants from fuel exhausts and better utilize the fuel in manufacturing or industrial plants or where recovery of minerals in mining operations is made possible which results in a lower overall operating expense ratio.
