HB 43 Wyoming House · 2024 Regular Session

State forestry good neighbor-positions.

HB 43 allows Wyoming's state forester to hire up to one full-time employee and four at-will contract workers using federal funds from the "Wyoming state forestry good neighbor authority revolving account." These positions would support cooperative forest management projects with neighboring landowners or federal agencies. The bill amends existing law to clarify funding sources and hiring limits for these specific forestry projects. It takes effect immediately upon becoming law, with no new taxes or broad policy changes. The bill directly affects state forestry operations and project management under federal cooperative agreements.
