State environmental laws can be more restrictive than the Federal but not less, so if anyone is dumping into waterways the EPA can go after them.

Don't know of many waterways that are solely in one state so the EPA automatically has jurisdiction as well.

What is it that you are purposing? That companies don't go to states with low cost of living?

The idea that "it's KY" is bigoted. They are people, just like anyone else. We don't tolerate it when others are dismissive of people based on their race and we should not be tolerant of the attitude based on where they live either.
