This bill allows South Dakota and its local governments to bill individuals for search and rescue services provided in national parks, national forests, or state parks, up to a maximum of $1,000 per person rescued. Previously, there was no legal authorization for agencies to collect these costs from the people they rescued.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
