Report to Congress on the UST Program in Indian Country
On August 8, 2007, EPA issued the Indian Country USTs Report to Congress, which discusses the considerable progress EPA and tribes have made by working together to prevent and cleanup releases from USTs in Indian Country as well as the challenges remaining and work to be accomplished.
