State legislators slam BLM plan

A number of Wyoming officials are asking residents to speak up while they can concerning a recently-released plan by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) that could affect farmers, ranchers, hunters and other outdoor enthusiasts in southwest Wyoming. Some state legislators are calling foul after saying the BLM didn’t include one key group of stakeholders — landowners — when deciding how to manage 3.6 million acres of federal land and 3.7 million acres of federal mineral estate in the Rock Springs area. The land spans parts of Uinta, Lincoln, Sublette, Sweetwater and Fremont counties. Legislators also accuse the BLM of breaking federal law, along with its own rules, and have asked for more time for public comment before moving forward.

Local event sends 55 kids airborne

KEMMERER — Pilot Rene Felker took a moment to pose for a picture between flights in front of his plane named ‘Curious George’ at the Kemmerer airport on Saturday, Sept. 16, for the third annual Fly-in and Car Show. Felker lives in Ogden, Utah, and has volunteered to fly his plane at the event for the past three years.
