Control Of The Reservation Environment: Tribal Primacy, Federal Delegation, And The Limits Of State Intrusion, Judith V. Royster, Rory Snowarrow Fausett

Washington Law Review

Inter-sovereign disputes over environmental regulation in Indian country are increasingly common. The federal government, individual states, and native nations all assert interests in controlling pollution on Indian reservations; the question of which sovereign should regulate in this area presents complex issues of federal law, native self-determination, and state autonomy.
