Interstate Compact Commission

The Interstate Compact Commission is an organization that manages agreements between states to work together on shared issues, such as environmental protection, public safety, or resource management. These compacts are formal arrangements approved by Congress, allowing states to collaborate effectively across borders. The commission oversees the implementation of these agreements, ensuring states follow through and coordinate actions. It serves as a neutral body to resolve disputes and promote consistent policies, helping states address problems that transcend individual boundaries and require cooperative solutions.
