Sand Hill River Watershed District flood hazard mitigation project funding provided, bonds issued, and money appropriated.

HF 3569 appropriates $1.5 million from state bond proceeds to fund a flood hazard mitigation project for the Sand Hill River Watershed District. The funds will replace water-pumping equipment used to manage water levels between two lakes in the district. The bill authorizes the state to issue bonds up to $1.5 million to cover this grant, following standard bond procedures under Minnesota law. This legislation directly supports the watershed district's infrastructure to reduce flood risks in the Sand Hill River area.
