Protecting critical infrastructure from foreign adversaries.
SF 76 requires Wyoming property transfers involving "prohibited foreign parties" near critical infrastructure to undergo review and approval by the Office of Homeland Security. It directly affects foreign entities seeking to buy or sell real estate within designated critical infrastructure zones, mandating detailed applications about property use, ownership, and proximity. The bill establishes a 180-day review process (extendable to 270 days) during which officials assess security risks, proximity to infrastructure, and potential impacts on state security. Exceptions apply for resident aliens, and approved transactions require a formal approval letter, while denied applications must be documented in writing.
