(a) Market value. Payment for the grant of an easement shall be on a negotiated basis, but no easement shall be granted for less than its market value. These rules apply to all federal, state, county, municipal or other governmental agencies as well as quasi-governmental bodies or organizations the same as if they were private parties.

(b) Minimum. Notwithstanding subsection (a) of this section, the minimum consideration for any easement shall be two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00).

(c) Notwithstanding subsections (a) and (b) of this section, for roadway easements granted to the Wyoming Department of Transportation or any Wyoming county or municipality, the consideration for any portion of an easement that is congruent with an existing state highway, county road, or municipal street or road that was validly established prior to 1974 shall be ten dollars ($10.00) per acre.

(d) Exchange. Notwithstanding the previous subsections of this section, for reasons of improved management and increased value of trust land, the Board may exchange an easement across state land for an easement of equal or greater value over land owned by another party.
