The bill establishes new standards and requirements for the process of eminent domain in Wyoming, specifically focusing on the acquisition of property through condemnation. It mandates that a condemnor must provide notice to the relevant county and local governing bodies at least thirty days prior to initiating a condemnation action. Additionally, any easement created under this act must clarify that the original landowner is not liable for any issues arising from the use of the land, except for intentional acts. The bill also stipulates that the condemnor is responsible for reclaiming the property once the easement is no longer needed and outlines conditions under which existing easements can be amended or renegotiated.

Furthermore, the bill includes provisions for calculating compensation, ensuring that improvements to the property are factored into its fair market value. It specifies that if an easement is abandoned, the land will revert to the original landowner, who will not bear the costs of reclamation, as this responsibility falls to the condemnor. The act will apply to condemnation actions initiated on or after July 1, 2025, and it clarifies that existing contracts will not be affected by these new regulations. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon the completion of the necessary legislative processes.
