040-23 Wyo. Code R. § 23-8
The Department may issue special use permits to allow special use of lands and waters acquired or administered by the Commission when such use does not interfere with the purpose for which the lands and waters were acquired or are administered. The Department may issue special use permits containing such conditions and restrictions as deemed necessary to protect wildlife, wildlife habitat, public safety, and public use. A special use permit is required prior to any activity being conducted that is defined as a special use. Use of lands and waters acquired or administered by the Commission by a licensed outfitter for the purpose of outfitting hunters and/or a person outfitting fishermen or other consumptive users of wildlife when that use does not conflict with public use or the purpose for which the lands or waters were acquired or are administered by the Commission does not require a special use permit.
(a) Application for a special use permit. Applications for special use permits shall be applied for through the Land's Administration Section of the Department not less than sixty (60) days prior to the date of the requested special use. Applications for special use permits shall contain the name of the applicant and person responsible for assuring permit conditions are adhered to; the date, time, duration, nature and location of the proposed special use; a concise explanation and description of the proposed special use; a statement of equipment and facilities to be utilized in connection with the special use; and, any additional information requested by the Department deemed necessary to assess the potential impact of the special use on the Commission acquired or administered lands and waters.
(b) The Department may require applicants for special use permits to obtain liability insurance to cover participants in a special use. If so, the Commission shall be named as an additional insured party. If the Department determines that liability insurance shall be required, proof of liability insurance must be provided to the Department prior to any special permit being issued.
(c) The Department may require the filing of a bond with satisfactory surety payable to the Commission to cover costs, such as habitat restoration, rehabilitation, and clean up of the area or for any damages or costs that are incurred as a result of the special use.
(d) The Department may assess an application-processing fee to cover administrative costs.
(e) The State of Wyoming and the Commission do not waive sovereign immunity by issuance of a special use permit and specifically retain immunity and all defenses available to them as sovereigns pursuant to Wyo. Stat. § 1 - 3 9-104(a) and all other State laws.
(f) Possession of a special use permit issued under this provision does not exempt the person(s) named in the special use permit from any requirement to obtain a special use permit from other responsible government agencies.
