Wyoming Groundwater Quality Laws as Applied to Long Standing Pollution Sources

Abstract

Long standing pollution sources have posed a challenge to enforcement of Wyoming's groundwater quality protection statutes. Such sites as the Laramie Tie Treatment Plant and the Cheyenne Husky Refinery have required the State, industries and the EPA to seek innovative and cooperative solutions. The paper will examine several of the most recent controversies involving groundwater pollution. The paper will look at the applicable statutes and regulations and then present an overview of the remedial approaches that are being used at the various sites.
