    STATEMENT OF REASONS WYOMING GAME AND FISH COMMISSION CHAPTER 28 REGULATION GOVERNING BIG OR TROPHY GAME ANIMAL OR GAME BIRD DAMAGE CLAIMS W.S. § 23-1-302 (a) (xxii) provides the Commission the authority to promulgate such orders as the Commission considers necessary to carry out the intent of this act. W.S. § 23-1-901 stipulates the process for owners of damaged property to report damages caused by big or trophy game or game birds. House Enrolled Act #117, Sixty-Fourth Legislature of the State of Wyoming, 2017 General Session, provides for amendments to W.S. § 23-1-901 (g) and (h) which empowers the Commission to establish rules to allow a property owner to request that an area of land adjacent to the area described in W.S. § 23-1-101 (a) (xii) (B) (I) or (II) be designated as an area where property owners are eligible for damage compensation for damage caused by gray wolves. This act is effective July 1, 2017. Throughout this draft regulation, language has been added to various Sections to include “gray wolf in accordance with W. S. § 23-1-901 (g) and (h)”. This reference allows a claimant to request damage compensation for gray wolf damage to livestock on land adjacent to the area described in W.S. § 23-1-101 (a) (xii) (B) (I) or (II) in accordance with statutory and regulatory provisions. “Gray Wolf” will also be added to the title of this regulation. Section 2, Definitions. The definitions of “Claimant, Confirmed by the Department or its Representative, Consequential Damages, Damage, Investigated by the Department and Verified Claim” are being modified to include new statutory provisions.

These tours will show you the modern mainline of the Union Pacific and take you back in time to railroad grades built in the 1860s. You’ll visit the best places to watch thundering diesels pull mile-long trains and quiet retreats where you can hike or bike along rails-to-trails built amidst the county’s beautiful alpine forests and meadows. Map 1 - overview of Albany County and its railroads Digital data used to create the maps in this brochure was graciously provided by Alan J. Frank, Office of GIS, Albany County, Wyoming Laramie This tour begins in Laramie, which was founded in the spring of 1868 with the arrival of the Union Pacific railroad.

    BOTANICAL NOTES and OBSERVATIONS: Cook Ranch, Albany County, Wyoming

    BOTANICAL NOTES AND OBSERVATIONS: Cook Ranch, Albany County, Wyoming Prepared by : Bonnie Heidel, Botanist Wyoming Natural Diversity Database - University of Wyoming 30 August 2001 Cook Ranch encompasses the matrix grassland and sagebrush steppe of the Laramie basin, and a segment of the Laramie Range escarpment with predominantly shrubland and grassland cover. Characteristic palustrine and riverine features are inlaid on these basin and escarpment landscapes, contributing to plant species and vegetation diversity. Laramie Basin grassland Mixed grass prairie is the most extensive vegetation feature, with a sparse, low-stature component of Wyoming big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata ssp. wyomingensis) over most of the vast, well-drained alluvial fans and terraces. Sagebrush cover drops out at the north end on finer­ textured soils, with patches of silver sagebrush (Artemisia cana). In the grasslands, only Sandberg's bluegrass and junegrass (Poa secunda and Koeleria macrantha, resp.) were conspicuous at the time of visit. Dominants and codominants among the grassland plant associations include at least needle-and-thread, western wheatgrass, and thread­ leaved sedge (Stipa coma ta, Elymus smithii, and Carex filifolia, resp.). Cover composition estimates and plant association characterizations were not made because foot travel was concentrated on unrepresentative overlook points, the drought restricted some species from heading out to bias the windshield survey, and this investigator did not have firsthand experience in the setting. The many ridges and rims associated with the rolling topography support many plains cushion plant species including Phlox muscoides, Haplopappus acaulis, Arenaria hookeri, Astragalus spathulatus and Eriogonum .. The grassland communities showed little or no skewing of plant composition under a long history of grazing.
