(a) The Natural Resource Protection Act is enacted under the authority of the tenth amendment to the United States constitution and Wyoming's agreement with the United States that the state adopted when it joined the union under the United States constitution's system of dual sovereignty. (b) The legislature finds and declares: (i) The federal government shall comply with federal law when administering federal lands; (ii) The federal government arbitrarily restricting significant amounts of federal lands from public use is contrary to managing federal land under principles of multiple use and sustained yield; (iii) Any failure by the federal government to abide by the law undermines the rule of law that is vital to our system of government.
