35:32 ~ 1/11/2006 8:41:32 AM ~ Jorgensen -
how do we know when we are there?
36:36 ~ 1/11/2006 8:42:36 AM ~ Fagan - fear
that we won't have workforce, housing, education facilities, healthcare,
Riverton $1.5m request, if only infrastructure is addressed, we still won't

what will you show us the direction we should emphasize.
39:46 ~ 1/11/2006 8:45:46 AM ~ Fagan - show
examples, Shoshoni, e.g. jobs, capital investments by private companies. Things that would not have happened w/o

9 chart GFunds - loans?
42:08 ~ 1/11/2006 8:48:08 AM ~ Tucker-
challenge loans, state would not come after them - not true, we are after
them. Non-pmt. we send lawyers after
them. Collect just like banks, too
strict? Taxpayer money.
43:34 ~ 1/11/2006 8:49:34 AM ~ Job - lot of
programs, what are the gaps, what are missing needs of communities?
44:05 ~ 1/11/2006 8:50:05 AM ~ Fagan - child
care, spray parks, what is the best deal?
15 board members separate program for childcare. State Board gets recommendation from WBC and
makes decision.
45:52 ~ 1/11/2006 8:51:52 AM ~ Job - do we have statute too confining?
46:24 ~ 1/11/2006 8:52:24 AM ~ Fagan -
quoted statute, Legislative Branch could do new rules.
47:09 ~ 1/11/2006 8:53:09 AM ~ Job - have
communities, if they need facilities, can get help even with existing building?
47:40 ~ 1/11/2006 8:53:40 AM ~ Fagan - think
you have to have an existing building to convert under statute.
47:57 ~ 1/11/2006 8:53:57 AM ~ Case - limits
of what is infrastructure, infringe on private business, personal belief we get
into competition with private business, struggle with this. Legislature needs to define. Childcare is perfect example. People are doing childcare, should we
compete.
50:02 ~ 1/11/2006 8:56:02 AM ~ Fagan - must
do what statute says. Cannot compete
with private, must do 2 public hearings, explain plan. Doesn't make you feel so good. Easy job?
A tough one. Get the wheel moving and get out is proper role of govt. We will try to comport with law.
51:58 ~ 1/11/2006 8:57:58 AM ~ Case -
problem, create advocate, logroller?
WBC become advocates - airplane has no wings, but it is flying pretty

have each project documented.
55:55 ~ 1/11/2006 9:01:55 AM ~ Jorgensen -
priority 1 - requirement for matching funds?
56:49 ~ 1/11/2006 9:02:49 AM ~ Fagan will
get to this on p. 11
57:00 ~ 1/11/2006 9:03:00 AM ~ Jorgensen -
any loans in p. 10?
57:29 ~ 1/11/2006 9:03:29 AM ~ Fagan -
grants/loans real purpose is infrastructure where none exists. Small communities match 90/10 or 95/5
because they cannot meet 50% match. Community
College match good, coming together.
Gillete mayor, legislators here coming together to grow Campbell County
1:01:40 ~
1/11/2006 9:07:40 AM ~ Petersen - Workforce Development heard yesterday, if
Training Center is developed, will it be redundent to College, and can the
matching funds be raised/
1:02:31 ~
1/11/2006 9:08:31 AM ~ Fagan - college is the big pusher. Real synergy in Campbell Co. If Legislature signs bill, not a dime is
spent until entire $15m is raised. Need
highly skilled workforce, is coming together.
1:03:45 ~
1/11/2006 9:09:45 AM ~ Nicholas - Board gives grants, does it look at if county
is exercising maximum mil levy and help itself?
1:05:07 ~
1/11/2006 9:11:07 AM ~ Fagan - line item, WBC Board has discretion, not going
to overrule, will try to do what Legislator says. Optional sales tax is not in statute, but individual board member
has it in mind when they vote. Not
presently a criteria.
1:06:46 ~
1/11/2006 9:12:46 AM ~ Job - does Bd. consider when a project has failed a vote
of voters.
1:07:17 ~
1/11/2006 9:13:17 AM ~ Fagan - example?
Small state
1:07:30 ~
1/11/2006 9:13:30 AM ~ Job - from Rock Springs, failed vote of Rec. Center,
could R. S. come to WBC for grant?
1:08:10 ~
1/11/2006 9:14:10 AM ~ Fagan - must be a publicly owned, could do under
existing statute. Will look at Business
Plan, viability, all other factors. May
not be a deal breaker.
1:09:24 ~
1/11/2006 9:15:24 AM ~ Job - community college, FTE how count for the college
and how effect the college.
1:10:00 ~

1:10:00 ~

1:10:11 ~
1/11/2006 9:33:18 AM ~ Tucker Fagan- Another pt of #1- Wind River #2 - Match state & University salary
& fringe benefits for employees in the economic development outreach
programs managed by the University of WY
These people work hard, do good job, but don't get raises as others do. #3 - expansion of 6 individuals - regional
offices--these people are driving all over the state of WY, They do a great service. I need others to be able to cover the state
more adequately. If I lose one of our
staff in the region then it takes at least 6 mos. I really need to be able to grow this area.
1:19:02 ~
1/11/2006 9:42:09 AM ~ Warren - If we sunset areas would it be hard to hire
these individuals ?
1:20:00 ~
1/11/2006 9:43:07 AM ~ Fagan - Look at pg. 3 - This organization has no
authorized # of FTE's. We are all at
will employees. We tell the new hires
that they are not like other state employees.
1:22:09 ~
1/11/2006 9:45:16 AM ~ Anderson - no qualm w/any 6 that you have, but if we get
another I want one. Have you ever
thought of getting thinner in Cheyenne and putting more in field??
1:23:15 ~
1/11/2006 9:46:22 AM ~ Fagan - We have been operating very thin. If I lose some we'll be in trouble. We'll make it all work somehow.
1:27:34 ~
1/11/2006 9:50:41 AM ~ Job- Do you pay
the state when the university does work??
1:28:05 ~
1/11/2006 9:51:12 AM ~ Gern - We don't pay the university anything.
1:29:09 ~
1/11/2006 9:52:16 AM ~ Philp - Will the other university employees want to have
a raise also?
1:29:40 ~
1/11/2006 9:52:47 AM ~ Gern - I don't know.
1:30:40 ~
1/11/2006 9:53:47 AM ~ Jorgensen - what thoughts do you have about where they
are to be?
1:31:07 ~
1/11/2006 9:54:14 AM ~ Fagan- They need to be in the field not in the office.
1:32:40 ~
1/11/2006 9:55:47 AM ~ Fagan - Gov. denied the 6 full-time positions that we
are asking for. This is a face to face
- work with companies around the world.
#5, p. 15 - vehicles - We drive
all the time - #6 - Bill Gern's idea-
great idea - outreach coordinator - return of 73 X investment. Crazy Tucker says Board says that you need to ask for inc. funding to the research
products center --#7 - req. w/ $80K for bien --need to grow the economy like
this --state of wy had the most patents of any state in the US. #8 -I want better justification before
asking for expansion of employees.
1:41:56 ~
1/11/2006 10:05:03 AM ~ Warren - How do we prioritize?
1:42:11 ~
1/11/2006 10:05:18 AM ~ Fagan - Should we do these - we need for you to make
these decisions. We need to keep the
level of effort in these services.
1:44:13 ~
1/11/2006 10:07:20 AM ~ Hines - This is unusual to have these items in a
budget.
1:44:52 ~
1/11/2006 10:07:59 AM ~ Nicholas - I agree w/ Hines and we should move on.
1:45:39 ~
1/11/2006 10:08:46 AM ~ Case - Look at the cut line!!! Did gov approve funding #7? No.
1:46:19 ~
1/11/2006 10:09:26 AM ~ Fagan - I spoke to him about the board's decision. Gov denied
these.
1:47:14 ~
1/11/2006 10:10:22 AM ~ Fagan - I'm done w/ my exception items. The Tourism will give their exception budget
items.
1:48:07 ~
1/11/2006 10:11:14 AM ~ Shober - Tourism - Steady growth for WY - 71% was new money into WY Of 2 billion much went to local
governments. Take job very seriously
and it is showing. 1st order of
business - budget footnote that authorizes us in the WY government. Would you reauthorize through the next
bien?? Have given wording from before.
1:54:05 ~
1/11/2006 10:17:12 AM ~ Nicholas - would you like to have it in statute?? Then
you don't have to come back and ask every time.
1:54:51 ~
1/11/2006 10:17:58 AM ~ Nicholas - go to the interim to look at this
1:55:10 ~
1/11/2006 10:18:17 AM ~ Shober - Thanks for letting us to redesign our website
because it has really increased our users.
We have had 53% in users. #1
Online product manager - we need to have our website come to the forefront
. Need to have this full-time person to
stay ahead . #2 - If you are looking
for dude ranches, fly fishing, et c.
You have to buy these words for them to come up when you go into a
search engine. #3 - inc. advertising
& public relations - many changes
have taken place and we have to change too.
Are getting more of a per capita measure -- are they actually booking a
trip and coming to WY?? Core markets - need to layer - looking for diff. areas
of country that are coming back for repeat visits, etc. Total is $5.4 mil - 36th nation wide in tourism budget. For near areas- we are 12th in our budget
2:04:22 ~
1/11/2006 10:27:29 AM ~ Warren - Could you show a breakdown of how 4 mil is
going to be spent?
2:04:49 ~
1/11/2006 10:27:56 AM ~ Shober - I have it here and I'll leave it here as a
handout. #5 - work w/ DOT for turnout
and highway signage
2:09:44 ~
1/11/2006 10:32:52 AM ~ Case - Did you participate in Chief Washakie Trail
signage?
2:10:13 ~
1/11/2006 10:33:21 AM ~ Shober - I don't know what part we had.
2:10:51 ~
1/11/2006 10:33:58 AM ~ Case - I think that Washakie has been done, but there
is a Trail of Tears also .
2:11:32 ~
1/11/2006 10:34:39 AM ~ Shober - I'll check into that. Arapaho Bus. Council should be contact.
2:12:19 ~
1/11/2006 10:35:26 AM ~ Jones - Do you do these turnouts and work w/ DOT?
2:12:46 ~
1/11/2006 10:35:53 AM ~ Shober - We do work w/ DOT but there are some that are
stand alone. The stand alones are more
costly. #6 - International develop -
Other states are looking at this also.
#7 - CDS packaged w/ distribution of state highway maps - We have a
litte less than 500K maps each year. We
would like to have some CD's to go with them so they can have some commentary
as they travel.
2:17:50 ~
1/11/2006 10:40:57 AM ~ Jorgensen - There was another map. I don't think that
the CD is the way to go. The Rec. map I
think would be better.
2:19:28 ~
1/11/2006 10:42:35 AM ~ Shober - It is larger than the highway map and it is
more costly to produce. We want to
enhance the visitor's experience.
2:21:19 ~
1/11/2006 10:44:26 AM ~ Jorgensen - do believe in CD's as much
2:21:38 ~
1/11/2006 10:44:45 AM ~ Meuli - Will these be produced in-house?
2:22:56 ~
1/11/2006 10:46:03 AM ~ Shober - We put out an RFD for best cost. #9 - Reel Scout Film data Program -
2:24:30 ~
1/11/2006 10:47:37 AM ~ Case - Why don't we get paid for the WY images that
others want to use.??
2:24:59 ~
1/11/2006 10:48:06 AM ~ Shober - Not way we're going - some are public domain
On #9 - There are some that are being used now.
2:25:58 ~
1/11/2006 10:49:05 AM ~ Case - Even if we don't charge we should have some
credits.
2:26:36 ~
1/11/2006 10:49:43 AM ~ Berger - I would like to support this. Having been involved w/ film
production. This would be a more
effective way to do this.
2:27:51 ~
1/11/2006 10:50:58 AM ~ Meuli - is this one-time funding??
2:28:04 ~
1/11/2006 10:51:11 AM ~ Shober - This is on-going program. $6K for a year #9 - One time request - You authorized us to buy the Grunkemeyer
collection. We are ready to take
position of this now. Only 1 of 2
companies in US that happens to be in Laramie.
We are ready to put these in 2 storage units and the co. in Laramie will
view all of these and tell us what is classified as "viewable
clips". Grunkemeyer has different
types of media and we are going to get the co. in Laramie to digitize it .
2:35:35 ~
1/11/2006 10:58:42 AM ~ Case - Is this co. going to put this in best storage
way??
2:36:14 ~
1/11/2006 10:59:21 AM ~ Shober -This co. will do all of the cataloging,
storage, etc. Heritage museum will have
the originals.
2:37:45 ~
1/11/2006 11:00:52 AM ~ Hines - Are we paying for it and it giving away?
2:38:12 ~
1/11/2006 11:01:19 AM ~ Shober - This co. will catalog, fix breaks in old film,
store it, etc.
2:40:25 ~
1/11/2006 11:03:32 AM ~ Hines - This is giving the co. in Laramie 60% - why?
2:40:53 ~
1/11/2006 11:04:00 AM ~ Shober - Yes, but we get a lot back from them also and
first shot at using the clips, etc. #10
- Capital Facilities Req. - Req. for Welcome Centers at I-90 and South Dakota
and I-25 and the Colorado Border The
I-25 is not going to be built yet so we are not asking for that now. In Michigan when people stopped at welcome
centers they changed their intended behaviors so that we think this will be a
good move for us. We are working to
gain some property access at the SD border.
We are not purusing this until you have given the money.
2:47:47 ~
1/11/2006 11:10:54 AM ~ Hines - Want to thank you because I support these
centers. I was one of the ones that
have pushed along to see what could be available. Thank you for doing this.
2:48:55 ~
1/11/2006 11:12:02 AM ~ Shober - you are welcome and we will hopefully get it
going.
2:49:50 ~
1/11/2006 11:12:57 AM ~ Jorgensen - This is the way to go. It should be first class. I will support this and hopefully get some
others in other parts of the state. It
needs full service. Accessible and
visibility is prime.
2:51:28 ~
1/11/2006 11:14:35 AM ~ Shober - When we first started working w/DOT we had to
tell them if we wanted it to be 24 hrs.
Next year we will be back to ask for some other funds to operate this
facility. Just wanted to let you know.
2:55:01 ~
1/11/2006 11:18:08 AM ~ Simpson - Have you ever thought about buying out the
landowners for the billboards at the entrances to WY.
2:55:59 ~
1/11/2006 11:19:06 AM ~ Shober - That is not in our purview, but I agree w/
you.
2:56:35 ~
1/11/2006 11:19:42 AM ~ Case - What about the operating cost? You are not operating this yet.
2:57:07 ~ 1/11/2006
11:20:14 AM ~ Shober - You're right, but the bldg. maintenance will have to be
funded next yr. No operating costs will
need to be considered now.
3:00:03 ~
1/11/2006 11:23:10 AM ~ Petersen - Have any feel for # of people that stop at
Bear River Center?
3:00:49 ~
1/11/2006 11:23:56 AM ~ Shober - I will get that for you.
3:01:15 ~
1/11/2006 11:24:22 AM ~ Jorgensen - Are there any billboards on I-90 going into

3:58:28 ~
1/11/2006 1:47:07 PM ~ Philp - do part of fees go to monitoring oil & gas?
3:59:27 ~
1/11/2006 1:48:06 PM ~ Olson - fees based on output
4:00:30 ~
1/11/2006 1:49:09 PM ~ Olson - utility industry pays about 70% of fees, all

adequate. Mr. Wagner's group does an
excellent job.
4:15:21 ~
1/11/2006 2:04:00 PM ~ Wagner - Coal Bed Methane now comprises large part of
our work.
4:15:52 ~
1/11/2006 2:04:31 PM ~ Anderson - 2 uranium mines we support in our dist. Large interest in increasing, not all
operators are responsible. How do you
anticipate handling this?
4:17:03 ~
1/11/2006 2:05:42 PM ~ Chancellor, land quality - bonds held on companies, not

1/11/2006 2:09:08 PM ~
4:20:51 ~
1/11/2006 2:09:30 PM ~ Corra - yes, IT process may eliminate need for all
positions, never be fully staffed, so we can use some of these vacant positions
to pay clerical staff.
4:21:59 ~
1/11/2006 2:10:37 PM ~ Nicholas - what if we add a position but don't change
standard budget?
4:22:22 ~
1/11/2006 2:11:01 PM ~ Corra - could overspend budget, goal is to be fully
staffed, may need staff in other areas.
4:23:22 ~

4:28:10 ~
1/11/2006 2:16:49 PM ~ Corra - quantiy of water is more, quality is worse,
evaporation, MT Board of Environmental Review could change how to regulate
& permit agency. Surface topography
is changing, so large storage reservoir sites are fewer, different forces
coming to bear. G&F concerned about
fish.
4:29:58 ~
1/11/2006 2:18:37 PM ~ Simpson - where does that leave you to deal with those
issues.
4:30:24 ~
1/11/2006 2:19:03 PM ~ Wagner - referenced charts on p. 12 of handout. Asking for water/wastewater engineers

4:33:34 ~
1/11/2006 2:22:13 PM ~ Wagner - will use cheapest pilot plants. More sophisticated plants are expensive.
4:34:04 ~
1/11/2006 2:22:43 PM ~ Case - way to produce methane without
4:34:22 ~
1/11/2006 2:23:01 PM ~ Wagner - Senator Jennings suggested system not having to
pump water. If it works that is great.
4:35:34 ~

4:39:25 ~
1/11/2006 2:28:04 PM ~ Corra - amt. of FF stays pretty constant, but costs to
run program rise. Shift funds to cover.
4:40:01 ~
1/11/2006 2:28:40 PM ~ Simpson - Industrial Siting of large industrial
facilities. We don't use same analysis,
must be better way to determine impact.
Expand to impacts in cities and counties. Appropriate function to DEQ.
4:41:36 ~
1/11/2006 2:30:15 PM ~ Corra - would be good function. Currently do not. Currently $150m threshhold, so large power plants always fall
within this. Small projects are having
a significant impact on communities, but they do not fall within scope. We would be happy if Legislature expands.
4:43:41 ~
1/11/2006 2:32:20 PM ~ Corra - p. 75 SHWD Solid & Hazardous Waste - good

to recruit from states with less $.
Trying to recruit across agency.
4:49:17 ~
1/11/2006 2:37:56 PM ~ Case - last year bill for landfills, newly resurrected
with changes, how effect?
4:49:53 ~
1/11/2006 2:38:32 PM ~ Finley - bill was withdrawn, whole banana to clean up
leaking landfills. Joint Minerals

1/11/2006 3:24:32 PM ~ Resume
5:20:21 ~
1/11/2006 3:24:37 PM ~ Corra- You instructed us to get as far as possible to
become a paperless agency. You gave us
money for the planning. The cost of
implementing is coming in much higher than we estimated. We thought that we would have only 55
processes that would need to be implemented , but there are 230. We have many in agency who have developed
their own data base to use. It has
become a much larger project that we thought.
In design phase we have found some efficiencies. Three alternative - Last one is what we are
suggesting. We want to finish by end of
this year and then we want to come back next yr and ask for about 4.5 - 5 mil
to get started. We want to run a pilot,
etc. Thought that we would have answer
