As of the date of the publication of the 2009 Wyoming statutes no such certification had been made. (a) Any person who possesses ammonium nitrate or regulated ammonium nitrate materials shall be registered with the department. The registration application shall be on a form approved by the director in consultation with and upon the recommendation of the director of the department of homeland security. The director shall charge an annual registration fee not to exceed fifty dollars ($50.00). Nothing in this section shall require the registration of any person who produces, sells or purchases ammonium nitrate exclusively for use in the production of an explosive under a license or permit issued under chapter 40 of title 18, U.S.C. (b) Ammonium nitrate and regulated ammonium nitrate materials shall be secured to provide reasonable protection against vandalism, theft or other unauthorized use. Reasonable protection may include, but not be limited to, ensuring that storage facilities are fenced and locked when unattended, and inspected daily for signs of attempted entry or vandalism to any storage facility. The director in consultation with or upon the recommendation of the director of the department of homeland security, may recommend other security measures. The director shall work in consultation with or upon the recommendation of the director of the department of homeland security to provide information to ammonium nitrate users on appropriate security measures. (c) A distributor shall record the date of sale and quantity sold, the valid state or federal driver's license number, the current physical address and telephone number for the purchaser of ammonium nitrate or regulated ammonium nitrate materials. If the purchaser obtains physical possession of ammonium nitrate or regulated ammonium nitrate material, the distributor shall obtain the registrant’s registration number as a condition of completing the sale. A registrant, if not a distributor, shall record the date of application. All sale and application records shall be retained by each registrant for a period of not less than two (2) years. (d) Registrants shall comply with all federal and state requirements regarding the dissemination of any information, providing the director and the director of the department of homeland security access to the records. (e) For the purposes of this section: (i) "Ammonium nitrate" means chiefly the ammonium salt of nitric acid. Ammonium nitrate shall not contain less than thirty-three percent (33%) nitrogen, one-half (1/2) of which is the ammonium form and one-half (1/2) of which is the nitrate form; (ii) "Regulated ammonium nitrate materials" means regulated ammonium nitrate material fertilizer products which have been determined by the director in consultation with and upon the recommendation of the director of the department of homeland security to warrant regulation based on the potential explosive capacity of the fertilizer material determined by the ammonium nitrate content.
