Wyoming Chamber Welcomes Clarity in New WOTUS Rule

The Wyoming Chamber of Commerce applauds the Environmental Protection Agency’s newly announced proposal on Waters of the United States (WOTUS), which closely aligns with the Supreme Court’s Sackett decision and brings long-awaited clarity to landowners, businesses, and industries across our state.

The EPA’s updated approach offers a more predictable framework, helping infrastructure projects move forward, supporting economic development, and ensuring that responsible stewardship and economic growth can coexist.

WY It Matters: For Wyoming, where natural resources, private property rights, and business innovation go hand in hand, this clarity is not just helpful; it’s essential. The Wyoming Chamber is a strong supporter of policies that provide practical, evidence-based regulation. We will continue to monitor and support federal rule-making efforts that promote both healthy ecosystems and a thriving local and national economy.
