The Seminoe Pumped Storage Project threatens the entire North Platte system, the fishing, hunting, wildlife, public access, and wild country that make this place worth protecting.

On May 27, Friends of the North Platte and partners are hosting a pint night at Bull Horn Brewery in Casper to share information about the proposed project and its potential impacts on the Seminoe area and the North Platte River downstream.

Come learn the facts, hear from experts, ask questions, and decide for yourself what’s at stake. No commitment required —just show up.

📍Tuesday, May 27 | 6:00 PM (Comments begin at 6:20 PM)
Bull Horn Brewery
355 W Yellowstone Hwy, Casper, WY

For those interested in making their voice heard, the Wyoming Legislature’s Travel, Recreation, and Wildlife Committee will hear public testimony on the project the following morning, and we can help you prepare.

See you there.

Public Meeting Notice (Hosted by Wyoming DEQ)

The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality will host a public meeting related to water quality considerations for the Seminoe Pumped Storage Project, a project led by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

⚠️ Please note: This is not a Bureau of Land Management public meeting, and it is not being hosted by BLM. The meeting is being conducted by Wyoming DEQ as part of its Section 401 Water Quality Certification process under the Clean Water Act.

📍 Public Meeting Details

🗓 Jan. 21, 2026
⏰ 5:30–8:30 p.m. (local time)
📌 Gateway Center Room (GW225), Casper College
125 College Drive, Casper, Wyoming

The purpose of the meeting is to provide information and accept public comment specifically related to water quality issues associated with the project. Wyoming DEQ will present its findings before accepting comments. Written comments may also be submitted at the meeting. For more info visit:

🚨 IMPORTANT PROJECT UPDATE – 1/5/26 🚨

The developer has filed for a Clean Water Act Section 401 water quality certification, one of the most critical approvals in the entire process.

Without this state approval, the project cannot move forward. Wyoming must certify that it will not degrade water quality in Seminoe, Kortes, or the Miracle Mile, which is protected as an Outstanding Resource Water. Even small temperature changes matter.

A separate public comment period is now open, focused only on water quality. This is a major decision point for the project.

More details soon. Please stay engaged and share.

🚨 Important Update on the Seminoe Pumped Storage Project

The project developer filed new documents today with FERC — and buried in those filings is a major admission.

The company admits that if they follow Wyoming Game & Fish seasonal protections for bighorn sheep, construction would be limited to only about two months per year in some areas. They go on to say this would double construction time, add $1.62 BILLION to the project cost, and ultimately make the project “infeasible.”

Let that sink in.

That means this project cannot be built as proposed unless wildlife protections are weakened or waived — protections that exist to safeguard crucial winter range and lambing habitat when bighorn sheep are most vulnerable.

Instead of redesigning the project to fit the land, the developer is asking regulators to bend the rules to fit the project.

Cost overruns are not a reason to sacrifice Wyoming wildlife or public lands. If a project only works by ignoring long-standing environmental protections, then it’s the wrong project in the wrong place.

This is not speculation. It’s the developer’s own admission, now part of the public record.

The decision now sits with FERC — and public comments matter more than ever!

🗓️ Public comment deadline is January 2nd.
✍️ Every comment counts.

If you care about Seminoe Reservoir, the Miracle Mile, and Wyoming wildlife, now is the time to speak up!
