Drug trade investigation results in two arrests
BY RYAN FITZMAURICE
Two residents of Cow—
ley have been arrested for
conspiracy to deliver con—
trolled substances.
Lynette Frost, 53, and
Steven Anthony Frost, 67,
have both been charged
with two counts of unlaw—
ful delivery and two counts
of conspiracy to deliv-
er controlled substances.
All four counts are felony
charges.
Lovell Police Chief Dan
Laffin said the two are
known in the department
as being involved in the 10—
cal drug trade and also al-
leged the two are well—
known in the community
for the same.
The arrests are the re—
sult of a long-term multiple
agency investigation, ac—
cordin to Laffin.
“I ave had people in
my office who I’ve talked
to who I’ve known to be in
the drug business. Every
time, I’ve given them three
options,” Laffin said. “The
first is quit the lifestyle.
The second is get out of my
jurisdiction and the third is
or I’ll bury you in jail.”
Laffin said, regret—
tably, some continue in
the drug trade until held
responsible.
“They get comfortable
because the investigations
take a while,” Laffin said.
“But the bear trap will close
in on them.”
Signs not allowed in highway rights-of-way
The Wyoming Depart-
ment of Transportation
issued a reminder July 6
that advertising signs can-
not be placed in the state
frights'4of-way. ' "
" “With the upcom—
ing elections, we’ve seen
an increase in the num—
ber of signs our mainte-
nance crews are having
to remove from the right—
ofvway fence or from the
right—of—way itself,” said
WYDOT area maintenance
supervisor Brian Pittman
of Basin. “Wyoming law and
WYDOT policy prohibit
placement of signs in those
areas, so when our mainte-
nance crews come through
an area, they pick them up
and take them to the area
maintenance office. Who—
10—104
ever owns the sign has two
weeks to claim the sign,
and then we dispose of
the sign if it is not claimed.”
Wyomin Statute ,24— ,
fist-ates that-outdoor
advertising must meet cer-
tain conditions for place—
ment. Fines and even jail
time can be inflicted on
those who don’t comply
with the law.
“This applies to political
candidates, real estate rep—
resentatives and residents
advertising garage sales.
Posting these signs along
roadways is illegal with—
in the right—of—way of ru—
ral highways and inter—
states,’ Pittman said.
“The signs can become a
real problem for motor-
ists, both by restricting
line of sight and creating a
potential collision hazard.
We understand signs are
placed to help business-
es, but rights—of—way must
Stay clear of signs fetisafE~
ty reasons.” "
Business people and
citizens who believe
their signs may have been
removed by WYDOT crews
may contact the nearest
WYDOT maintenance of—
fice to make arrangements
to pick up the signs.
“Our concern is always
for the safety of the travel—
ing public,” Pittman said.

Enzi cosponsors bill to increase g0vernment efficiency
Washington, DC. —
US. Senator Mike Enzi,
R—Wyo., signed on to leg—
islation that aims to cre—
ate more efficienc by
modifying, consoli ating
or repealing outdated, du-
plicative or unnecessary
agency regulations.
“Congress should al—
ways be looking to stream—
line the federal govern—
ment so it is more efficient
and accountable to hard-
working taxpayers,” Enzi
said. “Wasting taxpay—
er dollars is unacceptable
and our nation’s spending
crisis makes it even more
important to reduce need-
less and duplicative gov—
ernment programs.”
The Unnecessary
Agency Regulations Re-
duction Act would create a
process to eliminate mul—
tiple regulations originat—
ing from any and all agen-
cies in a joint resolution. It
would require the Admin—
istrator of the Office of In—
formation and Regulatory
Affairs, on an annual basis,
to submit a list of outdat-
ed, duplicative or burden—
some agency regulations
to modify, consolidate or
repeal.
The list of recom—
mended regulations for
consolidation, modifica—
tion or repeal would be in—
cluded in the President’s
Unified Agenda. The list
would then be transmit—
ted to the relevant con—
gressional committees to
review, and the final list of
recommendations would
'be introduced as a joint
resolution, which would be
eligible for expedited con—
sideration in Congress.
The legislation is
led by US. Senator Rick
Scott, R—Fla., and also co-
sponsored by US Sena—
tors Tom Cotton, R-Ark.,
Steve Daines, R—Mont.,
Josh Hawley, R—Miss., Kelly
Loeffler, R—Ga., David Per-
due, R—Ga., and Thom Til—
lis, R—N.C.
