Wyoming sets funding for waste projects
The law takes effect immediately and authorizes existing waste-program funds for 14 projects, replacing the 2024 priority list. In priority order, the project caps are: 1) dead animal disposal, $77,303; 2) Newcastle transfer, $1.2 million; 3) Moorcroft #3 transfer, $1.5 million; 4) Thermopolis transfer, $2 million; 5) Rawlins transfer, $780,000; 6) Thermopolis closure, $2.5 million; 7) Baggs solid waste disposal district closure, $2.25 million; 8) Big Horn County solid waste disposal district–North #2 closure, $2.8 million; 9) Newcastle closure, $3.7 million; 10) Lincoln County–Cokeville closure, $1 million; 11) Uinta County Solid Waste–Bridger Valley closure, $4 million; 12) LaGrange closure, $1.4 million; 13) Upton closure, $2.9 million; and 14) Park County Landfills–TS Rolling Stock transfer, $351,000. Each cap represents 100% of project cost, including any state loan and investment board award under the program. Any municipal solid waste facility operator can apply for the dead animal disposal funds. That project's total spending cannot exceed $77,303, and funds can only support infrastructure to haul, bury, or compost dead animals. By October 15 each year, the Department of Environmental Quality must report those recipients and spending amounts. That report goes to the Joint Minerals, Business and Economic Development Interim Committee. The law does not provide direct household payments.
Wyoming can shift waste project funding
Wyoming's Department of Environmental Quality can change authorized funding amounts and the order of listed waste projects. Reasons include efficiency, project readiness, grant or loan requirements, and emergencies or immediate environmental concerns. These changes can direct money to ready or urgent projects while reducing funding or delaying other listed projects. By October 15 each year, the department must report any changes to the priority list. Reports go to the Joint Minerals, Business and Economic Development Interim Committee and the Joint Appropriations Committee.
