Industry is girding for confrontations over state environmental referendums at the polls in November. One Massachusetts issue, the Polluter Pay Initiative, would tax the manufacturer or first possessor of SARA 313 toxic chemicals and CERCLA hazardous substances at 0.2 cts/lb, with money to be directed to the state's 2,700 site cleanups. Lobbying by chemical and petroleum industries has kept similar legislation from getting out of committee, says Matthew Wilson, director of Massachusetts Campaign to Clean Up Hazardous Waste (Boston), which introduced the measure.
