Wind River lands segregation hinges on state promises
The Wind River ceded lands dispute hinges on the Wyoming State Land Board fulfilling Interior Secretary promises. A written Morton relinquishment and water-right handover backed by a board resolution are needed, with lands to return to the government if no buyer emerges within a year. Governor Marey and land commissioner helped secure a Washington deal, though no purchaser is yet named. Meanwhile a Lander family faces hardship as a father missing work leaves four children in Cheyenne and Casper, with the four year old contracting scarlet fever.
