An interstate Compact differs fundamentally from a "uniform law" in its nature and application. Unlike uniform laws, which are not contractual in nature, interstate Compacts are binding agreements between states. A state cannot selectively adopt provisions of an interstate Compact or modify them to address only intra-state concerns. Additionally, once adopted, a state cannot unilaterally amend or repeal an interstate Compact unless the Compact’s language explicitly permits such actions. Even then, amendments or repeals must be conducted per the terms specified within the Compact itself. See, e.g., West Virginia ex rel. Dyer v. Sims, 341 U.S. 22, 28 (1951).
