Teton commissioners OK $27,500 well-design change order for South Park RV station
On March 3, Teton County commissioners approved a $27,500 amendment with Y2 Consultants to design/permit and oversee drilling/testing of a public potable-water well for the planned seasonal South Park RV dump station on BLM Parcel 26.
Teton County’s Board of County Commissioners voted March 3 to approve a $27,500 “work change order” with Y2 Consultants to add public water-supply well design, Wyoming DEQ permitting, and drilling/testing oversight to the planned seasonal South Park RV dump station on BLM Parcel 26 (South Park Landing West Park). The change order is intended to fill a technical gap the county identified after reviewing 60% design plans in a Jan. 26 workshop, staff said. (Y2 Consultants Work Change Order Meeting Packet)
The RV dump station project is expected to include a sewer connection to the nearby Munger Mountain sewer main, a self-pay kiosk and security features, plus staging/parking and landscaping/screening. Staff told commissioners the facility is an “immediate need” identified in the county’s 2024 Water Quality Management Plan. (Y2 Consultants Work Change Order Meeting Packet)
Funding is slated to come from the county’s remaining $605,609 in American Rescue Plan Act State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, which must be expended by Dec. 31, 2026. Commissioners previously obligated that remaining ARPA balance to the RV dump station project via an internal memorandum of understanding approved Dec. 30, 2024.

County staff also flagged an unresolved timing issue: if the county does not take ownership of Parcel 26 on a schedule that supports the project, staff said they may need to pivot around April 1 and pursue permits through the Bureau of Land Management under current federal ownership.
