Massachusetts is not authorized to carry out its hazardous waste program in Indian country within the State (land of the Wampanoag tribe). Therefore, EPA will continue to implement and administer the RCRA program in these lands. Through federalism, Massachusetts as one of the 50 soverign united States, should have the authority to protect its residents from hazardous waste contaminating our water and air within our boundaries. Whenever the Massachusetts regulations exceed the federal regulations or are broader, the EPA through comity should be enforcing the higher Massachusetts standards within Indian country.
