The polluters are typically held responsible for paying the majority of the costs associated with toxic waste cleanup, as they are the ones responsible for causing the contamination in the first place. This is often done through lawsuits or settlements, and the funds are then used to support the cleanup efforts. While federal dollars from the Superfund may provide some additional support, they generally only account for a small portion of the overall cost of the cleanup. Increasing taxes in the region or state is also unlikely to be a significant source of funding, as it would place an undue burden on residents who had no involvement in the pollution.
