*Governor Gordon extends Executive Order to aid in livestock, feed transport*

CHEYENNE, WYO – As significant wildfires continue to impact Wyoming’s agricultural producers, Governor Gordon has extended the executive order [ [link removed] ] which eases restrictions to transport loads of livestock feed and livestock, exempting motor carrier drivers from operating time requirements.

“The extension of this EO allows our ranchers to continue to move their livestock to safety quickly and expedites bringing in necessary feed. Wyoming’s commitment to supporting agricultural producers remains unwavering and responsive. It is clear wildfires threaten livelihoods, and we need to do all we can to aid recovery,” Governor Gordon said. “Thank you to all who are fighting these fires on the front lines and offering resources to support those in affected.”

Now well into mid-September, Wyoming is still experiencing multiple fire starts weekly from a number of causes. 

“It’s hot, dry, and windy, which are prime conditions for a spark to ignite into much more,” Governor Gordon said. “We must be conscientious of the conditions and the impact even an act as small as sighting in your rifle on a dry grassland can have on our neighbors and state. Check for fire bans and follow all local guidance.”

For the latest information on the fires, daily updates, and additional information visit your local emergency management website. The Governor’s Executive Orders can be found on the Executive Orders page [ [link removed] ] of the Governor’s website. Resources and guidance for livestock producers is available online.
