The bill establishes the Critical Infrastructure Resiliency Initiative in Wyoming, aimed at enhancing the state's critical infrastructure's ability to withstand various threats, including natural disasters and cyberattacks. It creates the Critical Resilient Infrastructure Board, which will consist of nine members, including the director of the office of homeland security and eight gubernatorial appointees from various sectors related to critical infrastructure. The board's responsibilities include ensuring compliance with federal infrastructure laws, facilitating technology transfer from the Department of Defense, and developing strategies to maintain essential services during grid-down events.

Additionally, the bill appropriates $20,000 from the general fund to cover travel expenses for board members until June 30, 2024. The board is tasked with monitoring best practices for infrastructure protection, reporting recommendations for enhancing grid resilience, and ensuring that public utilities implement necessary upgrades without increasing costs for ratepayers. The initiative aims to secure vital services such as power, water, and telecommunications for Wyoming's population, particularly during emergencies.
