South Dakota's One-Call Notification Board—which operates a service letting people request the marking of underground utilities before digging—is clarified to function as an independent state agency that manages its own personnel, finances, and operations, even though it's attached to the Public Utilities Commission only for budgeting purposes. The bill confirms that interest earned on the board's fund automatically goes back into that fund and that money is continuously available to run the system without needing separate legislative approval each year.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
