Wyoming Governor Issues New Order Protecting Sage Grouse
Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon issued an executive order Wednesday that improves the state’s Greater Sage-Grouse Core Area Protection Strategy, according to a news release.
The new order streamlines greater sage-grouse conservation, improves its clarity, recognizes valid and existing rights, and continues to provide regulatory certainty while allowing for adaptation as new information emerges.
It reflects many of the public comments collected earlier this year, and incorporates substantial recommendations prepared for the governor by the Sage-Grouse Implementation Team.
