re: #172 freetoken

I think a large part of it is lax enforcement.

“…The facility is currently not compliant with the federal Clean Water Act. It’s been in violation of the Clean Water Act for seven of the last 12 quarters. It’s violated the Clean Air Act three times in the last 12 quarters. Environmental Protection Agency data shows the facility also violated the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act on Feb. 22, 2018. The RCRA regulates how facilities handle hazardous and non-hazardous solid waste.”

The Republican solution is usually to loosen the rules.
