Résumé

This chapter of the Wyoming Statutes concerns the Interstate Streams Commission. It provides that the attorney general shall be the legal advisor to the commission and it shall be his duty to defend any suit or suits that may be instituted against the state of Wyoming, or against the water users and appropriators from this state, by the United States government, or by any other state, involving the question of priorities and rights of interstate streams; or if advisable to prosecute any suit necessary to properly safeguard the interests of the state or its citizens, in such interstate streams. The governor of the state of Wyoming shall appoint any commissioners necessary to represent Wyoming on any joint commission to be composed of commissioners from Wyoming and one (1) or more adjoining states and an authorized representative of the United States for the purpose of negotiating compacts or agreements between those states, or between those states and the United States, respecting the equitable division, use and distribution of the waters of any interstate stream and its tributaries flowing from or into Wyoming.
