Secretary Burgum, Gov. Gordon begin process to restore Wyoming management of water from Yellowstone

YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK – Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum was joined Friday by Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon to officially begin the process for the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) to relinquish federal environmental program authority, including Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 401 authority, over Wyoming’s portion of Yellowstone National Park to the state of Wyoming. This authority will be overseen by the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) following a 60-day notice period to Congress. “This is a proper and practical acknowledgement of the exceptional partnership of Wyoming’s DEQ and the National Park Service. It is another example of the DOI, under the leadership of Secretary Burgum, applying state-led, common sense solutions to the cooperative management of our public lands,” Gordon said in a news release. “This agreement is nothing new as Wyoming has managed CWA Section 401 in the Park for years. However, this official recognition restores the mutual responsibility that has worked so well and will bring about an increase in certainty and responsiveness for our Yellowstone visitors while ensuring that the Park’s water resources continue to be protected according to Wyoming’s high standards.” “President Trump made cutting red tape and putting decisions closer to the

Commentary: Historic dichotomy underlies data center debate

The uproar in North Dakota about the wisdom or foolhardiness of data centers is the 21st century version of a long-standing contention in the state. Three episodes in recent history were rooted in conflicting bents in the state's collective psyche that pit the desire for economic development and the promise of jobs against the instinct to preserve a way of life and protect the natural environment. Not long ago it was about lignite strip mine reclamation, air pollution from electrical generation stations, and oil development damage to the Badlands. The sentiments that drove those conflicts are, in part, the same that motivate the debate about the data centers phenomenon.
