This is some kind of bug, but it's not in the code.

- Hoover Dam and the Hydro Plant in buildings.ruleset gives -25% 
pollution in conjunction with factory and another -25% in conjunction 
with mfg plant.  Neither city has either of these buildings so it is 
correc that they get no pollution bonus.

- The help for Hoover Dam doesn't say exactly how much pollution it 
affects.  But it says it "acts as a hydro plant in every city".

- Hydro Plant says it reduces pollution by 50%.

I think for 2.0 we have to change the buildings.ruleset to match what 
the docs say.  For the dev branch we could just change the docs.
