(Riverton, WY) – Ahead of the January 15th Airport board meeting, County 10 caught up with Kyle Butterfield, the City of Rivertonâs Public Works Director on how all changes made to the airport name have been updated thus far.
The airport is considered a primary commercial service airport (more than 10,000 enplanements a year), according to the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems. Central Wyoming Airport however only flies to a single lone destinations to date which is Denver, Colorado. All signage for the airport will be up to date very shortly, in the coming months according to Butterfield.

The McIntosh Pit is a former uranium mine site that has undergone a multi-phase reclamation near Jeffrey City, Wyoming.
The former boomtown of Jeffrey City in Freemont County is located on Highway 287 about 90 miles west of Casper, Wyoming. The community experienced rapid population and economic growth in conjunction with the previously profitable and high-demand uranium mining industry during the Cold War era.
