Funding to replace Richmond Lake dam

South Dakota transfers $8.212497 million from its unclaimed-property trust fund to its general fund. The law assigns that money to the Office of the Commissioner of School and Public Lands for replacing Richmond Lake’s dam and spillway. The commissioner approves payment requests, and the state auditor issues payment orders. Money not legally spent or committed returns under state budget procedures in chapter 4-8. An emergency clause makes the law effective immediately upon passage and approval.
