HB 151 Wyoming House · 2026 Regular Session

Open records act-limitation on copy and production fees.

HB 151 limits fees charged by Wyoming government entities when providing public records to requesters. It sets specific caps: $0 for electronic records delivered via email or download links, $20 for records on government-supplied storage devices, and $0.15 per page for paper copies (with a 666-page maximum at that rate). The bill also prohibits charging for labor costs like locating, reviewing, or redacting records, and increases penalties for violations to up to $2,000. This directly affects citizens, journalists, and researchers seeking public records by making access more affordable and predictable.
