#  Defending Wyoming's Mining Industry with Travis Deti - Episode 071

 

Welcome to another edition of Eye on the Issues! In episode 071, we sit down with Travis Deti, head of the Wyoming Mining Association, for an in-depth discussion on the recent legislative session in Wyoming and its impact on the mining industry.

Travis shares insights on several key bills, including updates to blasting regulations and permitting for smaller mines, the defeat of a controversial mining law proposal, and the ongoing debate over property tax relief. He also discusses the implications of federal regulations from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on Wyoming's mining sector.

We delve into Wyoming's philosophical support for the mining industry, the challenges posed by the current administration's prioritization of renewables over traditional industries, and the efforts being made to support the industry at both the state and federal levels.

Tune in to hear Travis's thoughts on the future of Wyoming's mining industry, learn about carbon capture technology, and the need for continued innovation and support to ensure the industry's success.
