It's to allow the temporary storage of HLW from nuclear power plants based in Wyoming.
But there are no operating Wyoming nuclear plants.
If someone is planning on building a plant in Wyoming, this is putting the cart before the horse.
Maybe the real motivation is to get it passed for Wyoming only, wait a few years, and then modify to allow acceptance of out-of-state wastes. Nuke plants could get rid of their on-site wastes (good for them), Wyoming could charge a tax (good for them), and the company would make $ (good for them).
Time will tell.
