Municipal Pipeline Construction

The Wyoming Water Development Program was established in 1975 to promote the optimal development of the state's human, industrial, mineral, agricultural, water and recreational resources. The program, administered by the Wyoming Water Development Office (WWDO), provides for the planning, selection, financing, construction, acquisition, and operation of projects. This can include projects for the conservation, storage, transmission, supply, and use of water, necessary in the public interest to develop and preserve Wyoming's water and related land resources.

The Wyoming Water Development Program is developed and recommended to the Legislature by the Wyoming Water Development Commission (WWDC). The Commission is composed of 10 members appointed by the governor to represent the four state water divisions and the Wind River Reservation. The Wyoming Water Development Program receives funding from severance tax distributions. The Wyoming Water Development Office (WWDO) is staffed by 25 professional, and support employees.
