HB 215 Wyoming House · 2024 Regular Session

Integrated test center-governance.

HB 215 transfers Wyoming's Integrated Test Center (established in 2014) from its current administration to the University of Wyoming's School of Energy Resources, effective upon the bill's passage. The bill requires the center to focus its research on carbon capture, emissions management, and clean energy technologies, including facility design, testing, and collaboration with state agencies. It mandates reporting to the Joint Minerals, Business and Economic Development Committee by specific deadlines (October 1, 2024, and February 1, 2025) and establishes the School of Energy Resources as the governing body under the Energy Resources Council. The transfer includes all property, funds, and obligations of the center, with the university required to submit a transfer plan by May 1, 2024. This bill directly affects the center's operations, the university's energy research programs, and Wyoming's carbon capture research initiatives.
