(b) With the approval of the council the director may:

  • (i) Expend forfeited funds to remedy and abate the circumstances with respect to which any financial assurance was provided; and
  • (ii) Expend funds from the trust and agency account under W.S. W.S. W.S. 35-11-504(a) to remedy and abate any immediate danger to human health, safety and welfare.

W.S. 35-11-504(a) or in any case where the director has expended trust and agency account monies, the attorney general shall bring suit to recover the cost of performing the activities where recovery is deemed possible.
