Wyoming Climate• The climate of any area in Wyoming is largely
determined by its latitude, altitude, and the elevation. Most is adapted to cool season crops but the southeast corner is adapted to warm season crops.
• Annual precipitation averages 15.45” however most cropland areas range from 7” to 15” so the majority of cropland is irrigated.
• Temperature can vary from below 20oF in the winter to above 90oF in the summer, however the average temperature is 45.6oF for Wyoming.

Wyoming Growing Season Varies
• Wyoming has the second highest mean elevation in the United States at 6,700 feet above sea level. The highest point of elevation is Gannett Peak at 13,804 feet in the west and the lowest point is near Devil’s Tower at 3,125 feet in the east.
• Consequently, the growing season ranges from 140 days in the eastern side of the state to
60 days in the higher elevation or central and western part of the state.

• Vegetated Treatment Area (VTA) (635)
• Waste Storage Facility (313)
• Nutrient Management (590)

TYPICAL WYOMING AG WASTE DESIGN
Sediment basins temporarily retain water and are emptied into a liquid waste storage pond or pumped and land applied. Evaporation exceeds precipitation in Wyoming so many ponds are emptied through evaporation. Other waste storage ponds are pumped down with the liquid waste spread through irrigation systems.
![Page 17: Wyoming State characteristics Conservation practices CNMP Planning and Implementation Partnership EQIP WY DEQ](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649eba5503460f94bc2724/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The runoff from a facility is uniformly spread on to a Vegetated Treatment Area (Practice Code 635)

NRCS EQIP ProgramStatewide funding for Ag Waste ProjectsStatewide funding for CAP – CNMP plans
CAP CNMP-Those with little or no issues will be ranked highest for CNMP-CAP
Ag Waste Projects –Those with greatest water quality needs are ranked highest.

FUTURE CNMP EPA reducing the animal units ie:1000 to 500

FUTURE CNMP: AFOMost Ranches in Wyoming have traditionally placed their working corals on a water source ..
Corrals have surface water source fenced into corral. Animals have direct access to surface water and all runoff goes into surface water

permit writers and inspectors• Public notice of NMP• Revised annual report
- contains all the components of the existing report - provide an outline of nutrient management for the upcoming production year- filing date of April 15th
![Page 31: Wyoming State characteristics Conservation practices CNMP Planning and Implementation Partnership EQIP WY DEQ](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56649eba5503460f94bc2724/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
