Water division superintendents.
This bill changes how Wyoming appoints water division superintendents. It requires Senate confirmation for the governor's appointments (replacing previous procedures) and sets specific term lengths: current superintendents in Divisions 1 and 3 serve until March 1, 2020, while those in Divisions 2 and 4 serve until March 1, 2022. After these dates, appointments will be for six-year terms with no term limits, and candidates must pass an exam on water management laws and measurement. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
