South Dakota is allocating $10 million for water infrastructure and environmental projects: $2 million for water, wastewater, and storm water projects that must be approved by the Board of Water and Natural Resources and included in the state water plan, and $8 million for riparian buffer initiatives statewide. The bill declares an emergency so the funding takes effect immediately rather than waiting for the normal legislative process.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
The amendment replaced detailed grant eligibility criteria based on population-served tiers with a simpler allocation splitting $10,000,000 between water/wastewater/storm water projects ($2,000,000) and riparian buffer initiatives ($8,000,000).
The bill transitioned from engrossed to enrolled status, changing the codification number from 26.982.14 to 26.982.15 and removing legislative markup while adding official signature pages and filing blocks required for final enactment.
