require the use of fuel that is thirty percent ethanol by volume by the state motor vehicle pool in certain circumstances.

South Dakota's Department of Transportation must stock 30% ethanol fuel at all state fueling stations and make it available to state vehicles that can use it. State agencies must identify which vehicles in their fleets are compatible with this higher ethanol blend and inform employees to use it when refueling at state stations, or at public stations if it costs less than other fuel options.

authorize other fuel taxes to be included in the state’s International Fuel Tax Agreement collections.

This bill expands South Dakota's International Fuel Tax Agreement to include taxes on alternative fuels like ethanol, methanol, biodiesel, and natural gas—not just traditional motor fuel. The change allows the state to collect taxes on these alternative fuels through the same interstate agreement system that currently handles regular gasoline and diesel, making it easier for multi-state trucking operations to report and pay fuel taxes in one place.

make an appropriation to support the South Dakota Small Business Development Center and the South Dakota Procurement Technical Assistance Center, and to declare an emergency.

HB 1118 provides state funding to support the South Dakota Small Business Development Center and the South Dakota Procurement Technical Assistance Center, which help small businesses grow and compete for government contracts. The bill declares an emergency, meaning the funding takes effect immediately rather than waiting for the standard July 1st budget implementation date.
