South Dakota will spend $2.17 million from its general fund and $4.56 million in other available funds to replace the state's emergency alert system and related technology through the Bureau of Information and Telecommunications. The bill declares this spending an emergency so the funds can be used immediately without waiting for the normal budget process. Any money not actually spent or committed will be returned according to state accounting procedures.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
