South Dakota is allocating $2.5 million from its general fund to cover emergency and disaster costs across the state. The money goes into a special fund that the Department of Public Safety can use to pay for response efforts when emergencies or disasters occur, and the bill declares an emergency so the money can be used immediately rather than waiting for the normal budget process.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
