Good morning, Rock Springs.
🎓 Education
Dr. Cole Seppie resigned from his Sweetwater County School District #1 Board of Trustees on October 29th, 2025 — he cited opposition, retaliation and an unhealthy work environment as reasons for his immediate departure and said he will work with the board for a smooth transition.
His resignation comes after serving on the board since November 2024.
🌲 Environment
BLM is proposing to include nearly 20,000 acres from the Golden Triangle in its June 2026 oil & gas lease sale even though the current land-use plan protects this key wildlife habitat.
Conservation groups and former officials say the plan could harm mule deer, pronghorn and sage grouse and call for immediate action to fix the issue.
