Don't feel too bad about Cromby.

Sulfur Dioxide
Since the early 1980s, the company’s Eddystone and Cromby coal burning units in suburban Philadelphia have been equipped with magnesium oxide scrubbers to remove sulfur dioxide from their emissions. Burning low sulfur coal with up to a 90 percent scrubber removal capacity has resulted in low sulfur dioxide emissions.
Nitrogen Oxide
Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR) systems have been installed at Eddystone and Cromby. They are expected to reduce NOx emissions between 25 and 40 percent. Combined with the installation of low NOx burners in the mid 1990s, the total NOx reduction at the plants is projected at 70 percent.
