The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality will hold a public meeting at the Yoder Community Center on Monday, Nov. 16, at 5:30 p.m., Mayor Bob Oaks told the Yoder Town Council during its monthly meeting Monday.
Oaks said DEQ staff will come to town to update residents on what the agency is doing. He said the town has repeatedly asked DEQ to put air monitors in more places around Yoder. DEQ initially indicated it would add monitors, he said, but additional sensors now don't appear to be happening. Oaks said a local district had also offered to buy sensors and provide them. The council plans to raise the issue with DEQ at the meeting. DEQ staff were not at Monday's council meeting, and the Telegram will ask the agency about the sensor request at the Nov. 16 meeting, which it will cover.
