Forward

The Council of State Governments has been involved with interstate compacts for many years. This document updates a 1983publication. It lists compacts by subject and by state, provides a brief description about the compact, statutory citations from1983-1994, and the year states joined the compact. This edition also includes the agency and titles of compact administratorswhen this information was provided by the states. When a compact creates an interstate agency or other body, we haveattempted to provide the agency name, address, telephone and FAX number. When available, we also provided the names ofagency staff and some officers. Generally, we did not list officers because they change frequently. Readers will also notice some compact titles contain words in parenthesis. This indicates the state statutes or their indexeslisted derivatives of one title. Some compacts are even identified by two titles, one of which is in parenthesis. This indicates ageneric name for the compact plus the name of the compact as listed by the state or the code index. There are two reasons forthis. First, the enabling legislation containing a compact may not have had the same title as the compact. Second, codepublishers may have substituted an abbreviated or different title to satisfy their indexing requirements. In cases where there isonly partial information (e.g., title and citations, but no description) we provided as much information as we could get duringthe course of our research. The index of dormant or defunct compacts has been moved to the end of the book. We qualified these compacts as "may bedormant or defunct" because of the large number of compacts which are still on the books and because the states did notindicate or confirm such compacts were dormant or defunct. Finally, this edition does not update citations for Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, or the trust territories. Future editionswill include their data. The author thanks the state officials who verified the data in this report and the following people for their help in the initialphase of compiling the data: Jeffrey Hunter, Julie Fishman and Roger Wilson.

Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal

Low-level radioactive waste consists of waste items whichcontain small amounts or radioactivity. Nuclear powerplants, hospitals, industry and research facilities generatelow-level radioactive waste. Congress passed the Low-Level Radioactive Waste PolicyAct in 1980 to encourage the states to enter into compactsas a means of dealing with low-level radioactive wastedisposal. These were followed by congressionalamendments in 1985 to further the process. The state compacts are listed below. They requirecongressional consent. Generally, the compacts establisha host state, siting authority, licensing authority,developer/operator, and commission. These componentsconsist of federal, state and private sector participants.

States and Indian Gaming The federal Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988(IGRA) permits Indian tribes in any state to conductgaming on Indian land that the state permits for non-Indians. Federal law defines gaming in three classes, Class

I, II and III. Class I, "social games" are under the exclusivejurisdiction of Indian tribes. The federal law directs statesto negotiate compacts with the Indian tribes before Class IIand III gaming can begin. Class II gaming consists ofbingo, keno, pull tabs, punchboards, and nonbanking cardgames. Class III includes casino games like roulette, crapsand baccarat. Although technically not interstate, it is reported thatstates and tribes have entered into 50 compacts in at leastnine states. These include California, Connecticut, Iowa,Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, South Dakota, Washingtonand Wisconsin. A few citations are listed in thispublication under "other governmental" in the state indexsection. However, for more information, readers shouldcontact state gaming officials direct.

Assures nonresident motorists receiving citations forminor traffic violations in a party state the same treatmentthat would be accorded to resident motorists. Proceduresunder the compact are reasonable and provide due processprotection, but they also make it difficult for the personwho violates law to escape from the consequences. Thecompact is also designed to enhance law enforcementservice and deterrence time spent on the highways. Thiscompact was developed through a Council of StateGovernments project in cooperation with the AmericanAssociation of Motor Vehicle Administrators, the NationalCommittee on Uniform Traffic Laws and Ordinances, andthe U.S. Department of Transportation.

PUBLIC SAFETY

Civil Defense

Civil Defense and Disaster Compact During the late 1940s and early 1950s, virtually all statesand other jurisdictions of the U.S. enacted legislationmodeled on the Interstate Civil Defense and DisasterCompact, or variants thereof. Congressional consent wasgranted pursuant to Title II, Section 201[g) of the CivilDefense Act of 1950 [64 Stat. 1245). In effect, the compactauthorized entry into supplementary bilateral ormultilateral agreements to establish a basic legalframework for mutual defense aid and disaster assistance.Legal citations to those early ratifications are extremelydifficult to compile, even though many remain valid. Arevised version appeared as the Example State DisasterAct of 1972. Section 10 of that act revalidates the CivilDefense and Disaster Compact, thus making it available intime of need. Other sections of the act carry the mostrecent procedures for state-federal cooperation in disasterrelief, including reference to new provisions authorized bythe Disaster Relief Act of 1974 (P.L. 93-288). Thatcongressional act contained a number of new features andprograms intended to improve capabilities of the federal,state, and local governments to cope with disasters and torespond without delay to the needs of communities, in-dividuals, and families victimized by disaster. The following states were originally reported to haveenacted the Example State Disaster Act of 1972: Arkansas,California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois,Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland,Michigan, Nebraska, North Carolina, North Dakota, argon,Rhode Island, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, and WestVirginia. For further information, see CSG's 1973Suggested State Legislation (pp. 104-128); also see theCouncil's 1975 report containing suggested amendmentsauthorizing enhanced state programs consonant with P.L.93-288. In 1993 the Southern Governors Association (SGA)drafted the Southern Regional Emergency ManagementCompact. Article 1 says "mutual assistance in thiscompact may include the use of the state(s) NationalGuard forces, in accordance with the National GuardMutual Assistance Compact or by mutual agreement

between the states." Governors in 17 states, Puerto Ricoand the Virgin Islands signed the compact on August 17,1993. The SGA compact was endorsed by the FederalEmergency Management Agency (FEMA), and in fact,later that year FEMA attempted to get other states outsidethe South to adopt a similar compact. It is not knownwhether FEMA succeeded. Several states have also enacted emergency managementcompacts. The SGA compact and the emergencymanagement compacts are listed in this document after thecivil defense compact(s) below.

Mutual/Military Aid

Mutual/Military Aid Compact Provides for mutual military aid in emergency, fresh pur-suit of saboteurs or enemy forces, and legal protection ofmilitary members while engaged outside their home state.This compact is not nationwide in scope.In addition to the legal citations listed below, in 1950 thegovernors of New York and New Jersey signed mutual aidagreements. It appears this agreement was modified in1963 to enable at least New Jersey to join with other statesunder the same basic agreement. In 1957, Massachusetts enacted two military aid com-

pacts, one applying solely to the New England states andanother to Massachusetts and New York.Member States, Statutory Citations, [Year of Joinder] -1983 Connecticut: Conn. Gen.

Emergency Management A series of disasters, including earthquakes, hurricanesAndrew and Hugo, and flooding in the Midwest, refocusedstate efforts on emergency planning in the early 1990s.The fact that some existing compacts related primarily tocivil defense and National Guard mobility, and notnecessarily to other state emergency personnel, andquestions about licensing and liability contributed to theeffort. Thus, in addition to the SGA and FEMA compactsmentioned previously, this has lead to several statesadopting new or modifying existing language concerningmutual aid. Some of these are listed below. Additionalinformation can be found under Government Mutual AidAgreements, in CSG's 1994 Suggested State Legislation.Readers can also check the language of each state toprovide more details.

TRANSPORTATION

High Speed/Rapid Rail Several compacts have been adopted to encourage statesto study the feasibility of high speed passenger rail servicebetween major U.S. cities.

Interstate High Speed Intercity Rail Passenger NetworkCompact/Interstate High Speed Rail Compact This compact was originally created to enable Illinois,Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania andWest Virginia to jointly conduct a feasibility study toestablish high speed rail passenger service between themajor cities in each state.
