Wyoming can document historic rock art
Wyoming’s Department of State Parks and Cultural Resources may survey, document, and create models of all known petroglyphs and pictographs. This authority covers state, school, and institutional lands in Wyoming. The department may do the work itself or hire a consultant. Surveys cannot enter private land without the landowner’s permission. The law provides no funding or direct household payments.
New penalties for damaging historic rock art
The law makes harming petroglyphs, pictographs, or historic inscriptions on state-related lands a misdemeanor without State Board of Land Commissioners consent. This includes breaking, marking, damaging, removing, or moving them. Violators face up to $750 in fines, up to six months in jail, or both. The law retains forfeiture to the state of articles and materials discovered through a violator’s efforts. Other violations remain subject to the general $25–$100 fine, up to six months in jail, or both, unless another penalty applies. The act took effect immediately upon completion of the steps required for passage.
