This concurrent resolution expresses South Dakota's support for federal funding and congressional approval of four major regional water supply projects designed to serve rural areas across the state: the Dakota Mainstem, Western Dakota, Lewis and Clark, and Water Investment in Northern South Dakota systems. The resolution does not change state law itself, but instead urges Congress and federal agencies to authorize and fund these projects to address long-term water supply challenges in various regions of South Dakota.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
The amendment corrects hyphenation in two compound adjectives ("large-scale" and "long-term") and adds enrollment signatures and dates, reflecting the resolution's passage through both chambers.
