The DEQ Water Quality Division accepts comments on all permits authorized under a general permit for a period of 30 days, as provided for in W.S. 35-11-801(d).

Interested persons may mail or fax comments to the main Cheyenne office. The ‘Date’ column in the table below indicates the date the authorization was posted to the website. Comments must be received before 5:00 pm on the 30th day after the authorization was posted to the website.

You may sort the table by posting date or search for the type of general permit, the county where the permit was issued, the permit number, or the name of the person or company to whom the permit was issued.

Some rules revisions are important to ensure that the State of Wyoming retains primacy in regulating sources of pollution as required by the Clean Water Act and Safe Drinking Water Act.

Water Quality Rules revision proposals are located in the “Current Proposed Rules and Regulations” tab.

Water Quality Rules that are currently in effect are available online at
