Wyoming Legislators Propose $50M Fund for Environmental Litigation

by Arvie I

in Environmental Policies, Sustainability & Ethics

The Wyoming Legislature is considering setting aside $50 million for potential legal actions against the federal government concerning environmental and natural resource laws. This initiative was included in a proposed bill that received support from the Joint Agriculture, State and Public Lands & Water Resources Committee on October 30.

The bill, referred to as “Federal land use plans-legal actions authorized,” would grant the Legislature the authority to engage in legal proceedings that ensure the correct implementation and interpretation of federal acts related to land management.

The proposed legislation emerges against the backdrop of the state’s concerns with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) draft resource management plan for the Rock Springs region. The plan addresses 3.6 million acres of federal land and aims to balance conservation with development activities. However, some state lawmakers argue that the plan could negatively impact Wyoming’s interests, affecting sectors such as mining, drilling, grazing, and recreation.

The bill specifically addresses several federal acts including the Federal Land Policy and Management Act, the National Historic Preservation Act, the Endangered Species Act, the Clean Air Act, and the Clean Water Act.

With unanimous committee approval, the bill moves forward with the proposed $50 million budget for legal challenges. Advocates for the bill assert that this fund would reinforce Wyoming’s commitment to protecting its economic interests and the welfare of future generations.

Senator John Kolb (R-Rock Springs) emphasized the potential financial risks for Wyoming if the BLM’s draft plan and similar management plans are implemented. Senator Cheri Steinmetz (R-Lingle) mentioned that the bill could provide lawmakers with the autonomy to engage in litigation independently or alongside the governor if needed.

It is noteworthy that Wyoming already possesses the means to undertake legal action against the federal government, as highlighted by the 37 federal natural resources lawsuits it has been involved in recent years. The Attorney General’s office, with a budget of approximately $100 million for a two-year period and a staff of 228, has the resources available for such legal endeavors.
