Wyoming Legislature update – Sept. 29, 2022 (posted 9/30/2022)
Albert Sommers, House District #20 Representative
Hello Sublette County and LaBarge, this is Albert Sommers reporting to you from the interim of the 66th Legislature. On September 16, I participated in the Wyoming Wildlife Taskforce meeting in Casper. The purpose of the Wyoming Wildlife Taskforce is to study top-priority wildlife policy issues facing the state related to the allocation of hunting opportunity, sportsperson access, and other issues.
The Wildlife Taskforce continued to examine the issue of fair chase and new technologies. The current statutory authority for the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission to regulate new technologies is very limited. The Taskforce is going out for public comment with a recommendation to the Wyoming Legislature that a bill be passed providing additional statutory authority to the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission to regulate the use of new technology for hunting, as those technology evolves. Trail cameras would be included in that authority. The Taskforce will vote on that concept in November or December, so please let me know what you think by November?
The Taskforce also examined the special draw statutes for non-resident deer, elk and antelope. The Taskforce voted on and approved a recommendation to the Wyoming Legislature to increase the nonresident special license fee to $1950 for elk and $1200 for deer and antelope. Currently, the special draw non-resident license fees are $1268-Elk, $662-Deer, and $614-Antelope. The money from this increase in license fee would help support a variety of wildlife and hunter access programs. The increase will also help the outfitting industry, as non-resident special license holders often utilize outfitters. The Taskforce is also examining moving the split on the special draw from 40% to 50% of non-resident special draw licenses. The Taskforce is sending that concept out for public comment as well.
The Taskforce passed a recommendation to the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission to modify regulations regarding the issuance of landowner licenses in the following ways:
• More detailed definition of "subdivide for the purpose of obtaining landowner licenses"
• Requirement that a landowner applicant must have a significant interest in the property in order to qualify. The Task Force recommends the Commission define "significant interest" as a specific value between 10 and 25%
• New language to require landowners to provide specific data to establish their qualification for animal use days
• Require the Department to verify animal use days and qualification at least every 5 years
• No more than 20% of available tags can be issued as landowner tags. If landowner tags exceed 20% of available tags, then a landowner tag draw will be established in that area.

Drive-Thru Flu Shot Clinics offered in October (posted 9/20/2022)
Sublette County Public Health
The 2022 flu season is right around the corner and the Wyoming Department of Health is urging residents to get their flu shots. It is nearly impossible to predict the severity of the flu season ahead of time, but we can always predict that it is coming.
Flu is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses that infect the nose, throat, and sometimes the lungs. It can cause mild to severe illness, and at times can lead to death. Flu symptoms can be very similar to COVID-19 symptoms. Symptoms include fever, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, muscle or body aches, headaches, and fatigue.
The best way to prevent flu is by getting a flu vaccine each year. Flu vaccinations are recommended for most individuals over 6 months of age. Flu vaccines cause antibodies to develop in the body about two weeks after vaccination. These antibodies provide protection against infection with the viruses that are used to make the vaccine.
Sublette County Public Health is Offering Two Types of Influenza Vaccine This Year:
• Fluzone High-Dose Quadrivalent Vaccine—this vaccine has been approved for individuals 65+ years only. This vaccine contains four times as much antigen as standard dose flu vaccines. The higher dose of antigen in the vaccine is intended to give people 65 years and older a better immune response to vaccination, and therefore, better protection against flu. Cost $60/dose—Medicare Part B will pay for this vaccine.
• Fluzone Quadrivalent Vaccine—this vaccine is approved for individuals 6 months and older. A quadrivalent influenza (flu) vaccine is designed to protect against four different flu viruses, including two influenza A viruses and two influenza B viruses. Cost $20/dose—will bill to insurance, cash, or check accepted.
• Public Health can bill Medicare, BCBS, Cigna, & UMR Insurance. Please fill out insurance information on your consent form.
• Sublette County is going to offer Drive-Thru Flu Vaccine Clinics again this year. We will have reduced appointment availability after these clinics due to our planned move in mid-October. Call Public Health at 307-367-2157 to schedule your appointment.
