怀俄明州与联邦许可委员会签备忘录：大型项目州级审查与联邦审查同步推进
怀俄明州州长 Mark Gordon 10月26日在州府 Cheyenne 与联邦许可委员会签署谅解备忘录，目标是让怀俄明州的大型项目许可办理更高效、更及时。联邦许可委员会执行主任 Emily Domenech 与 Gordon 共同签署了协议。
协议将州级与联邦的许可时间线对齐：州级许可动作可以与联邦许可一同列入联邦许可仪表盘（Federal Permitting Dashboard），提高透明度，避免关键基础设施项目因州、联邦两边轮流等待而延误。Gordon 表示，他一直期待这一机会，确保州与联邦政府之间更好的协调与合作；自即日起，所有新的 FAST-41 项目都适用这份协议。
Domenech 表示，怀俄明州是第10个与许可委员会合作、让联邦与州级审查在同一条时间线上运行的州；过往各州常常要等联邦审查结束才启动自己的审查，项目因此闲置，这类协议终结了这种互相等待。怀俄明州环境质量厅代理厅长 Nancy Vehr 表示，这一框架在保持严格环境标准的同时简化了许可流程。

Wyoming Signs MOU With Federal Permitting Council to Run State and Federal Reviews on the Same Timeline
Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon on October 26 signed a memorandum of understanding with the Federal Permitting Council in Cheyenne to get large projects in Wyoming permitted in a more efficient and timely manner. Permitting Council Executive Director Emily Domenech co-signed the agreement.
The agreement aligns state and federal permitting timelines: state permitting actions can be added to the Federal Permitting Dashboard alongside federal permits, creating greater transparency and avoiding delays on critical infrastructure projects. Gordon said he had been looking forward to the opportunity to ensure better coordination and collaboration with the federal government, and that all new FAST-41 projects from this day forward will be subject to the agreement.
Domenech said Wyoming is now the 10th state to partner with the Permitting Council to run federal and state reviews on the same timeline, ending the pattern in which states wait for the federal government to finish its review before starting their own while projects sit idle. Nancy Vehr, interim director of the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality, said the framework streamlines permitting while maintaining rigorous environmental standards.
The announcement was released by the Office of the Governor of Wyoming. FAST-41 is the federal accelerated-permitting framework for major infrastructure projects created under Title 41 of the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act.
