Wyoming Public Lands Initiative: New Wilderness, Recreation, and Resource Rules
This law redesignates federal lands in Wyoming, establishing new Wilderness Areas and Special Management Areas. It creates a specific motorized recreation area near Dubois and mandates the development of fire suppression plans to protect adjacent lands and communities. Existing livestock grazing rights are preserved, while the newly designated protected zones are generally withdrawn from mining laws and mineral leasing.
