Tribal Lands and Waterways Pollution Reduction Act

This bipartisan bill would strengthen federal pollution cleanup and monitoring standards for contamination affecting tribal lands and waterways, require coordinated reporting by the Environmental Protection Agency and relevant federal agencies, and establish competitive grants for tribes to conduct water-quality testing, restore damaged ecosystems, and protect affected communities. The bill would prioritize sites posing significant risks to drinking water, public health, cultural resources, and treaty-protected uses, while supporting meaningful tribal consultation and enforcement of applicable environmental laws.
