Department of fire protection and electrical safety fees.

Wyoming's HB 159 increases maximum fees for electrical safety inspections, permits, and licenses collected by the Department of Fire Prevention and Electrical Safety. The bill raises specific fee limits, such as electrical inspection fees from $20 to $50 per residential unit (plus per-ampere charges), and electrical contractor licenses from $400 to $550. It directly affects electricians, contractors, and homeowners requiring electrical permits or inspections. The bill also repeals one fee section and requires the department to create implementing rules, effective July 1, 2023.
