Ranchers Shouldering the Waste of Mining and Coal Bed Methane?

This also gets to the point of needing good regulation and good regulators to enforce them. I am not for government waste, but paying the DEQ staff according to their worth would make the position much more appealing. We want very intelligent and capable people in those positions. That's not to say there are not great mine managers and environmental engineers in industry that care deeply for the environment, but they are hemmed in by investors and executives that eye profit. We also need elected legislatures that will staff DEQ accordingly and keep their eye on the long term impact which ultimately falls to each of us as voters to keep them accountable.
 
Not sure if it’s related to the nuke plant or not, but they are also in the process of high fencing 189 from I-80 to Kemmerer with a game bridge and some tunnels for game crossing.
Most winters that is one deer killing stretch of highway. The crossings will be a great thing for those deer.
