Electrical Permit (State Program) in Unincorporated Uinta County, Wyoming

Uinta County does NOT run its own electrical inspection program at the county level. Per the WSFM 'LOCAL AND STATE JURISDICTIONS' chart, Uinta County unincorporated = ELEC INSP/PR: S/S, so electrical wiring permits for private construction in unincorporated Uinta County are issued by the Wyoming State Fire Marshal's Office — Dept. of Fire Prevention & Electrical Safety (Chief Electrical Inspector) under the statewide default program (W.S. § 35-9-119), enforcing the 2026 National Electrical Code (the 2026 NEC became effective statewide July 1, 2026, superseding the prior 2023 edition; confirmed on the WSFM electrical-safety page 2026-07-17).

    Unincorporated Uinta County, Wyoming has adopted: NO countywide building code and NO general building permit for private construction in unincorporated Uinta County. Per the Wyoming State Fire Marshal's Office 'LOCAL AND STATE JURISDICTIONS' chart (updated 7/7/2026, re-verified 2026-07-17), Uinta County at the county (unincorporated) level shows BLDG INSP/PR = S/S and ELEC INSP/PR = S/S — the county has NOT taken general building-permit delegation under W.S. § 35-9-121; the State of Wyoming retains building and electrical jurisdiction over private construction in the unincorporated county.; CONFIRMED against the county's own site: Uinta County's 'Land Use / Building Permits' page (title notwithstanding) describes only a Land Use Certificate/Use Certificate process under the Uinta County Land Use Plan Resolution 23-02 (adopted under W.S. Title 18, Chapter 5, § 18-5-201) — a zoning/land-use approval, NOT an IBC/IRC construction permit with plan review and building inspections.; Uinta County Resolution 24-44 (Nov 2024) repeals the 2006 International Fire Code and adopts the 2024 'ICC-Codes' International Building Code text — but this is done under the county's DELEGATED FIRE-PREVENTION authority (W.S. § 35-9-121, 'Council for Fire Prevention', county acting 'as the delegated authority of the State Fire Marshal/Director') for fire-code enforcement purposes, not a general building-permit-issuing delegation for private construction. This is consistent with the WSFM chart's BLDG INSP/PR = S/S classification for the county.; Electrical work in unincorporated Uinta County is NOT locally regulated — per the WSFM chart (ELEC INSP/PR = S/S) electrical permitting/inspection is performed by the Wyoming State Fire Marshal's Office (Chief Electrical Inspector) under the state's default statewide electrical program (W.S. § 35-9-119).. Local amendments apply — see the Unincorporated Uinta County overview page for the full list.
