Coal-fired ferry set to sail Lake Michigan again

LUDINGTON, MI - A coal-fired passenger ferry is set to return to service on Lake Michigan after undergoing a makeover to meet terms of a deal with the Environmental Protection Agency.

The Ludington Daily News (http://bit.ly/1KIj9vW ) reports the SS Badger is expected to sail Friday from Ludington, Michigan to Manitowoc, Wisconsin.

It'll have a new ash retention system as part of a requirement to stop discharging ash into Lake Michigan.
