The stateWater Management Boardmade thedecisionafter a contested-case hearing Wednesday. Landowner Kirk Aughenbaugh said the fi ve-building operation is proposed about 10 miles southeast of Miller in Pearl Township and would have 18 employees managed as part of thePipestonesystem.

  • 2020 Statewide Ballot Measures
    2020 Statewide Ballot Measures Constitutional Amendment A Title: An amendment to the South Dakota Constitution to legalize, regulate, and tax marijuana; and to require the Legislature to pass laws regarding hemp as well as laws ensuring access to marijuana for medical use. Attorney General Explanation: This constitutional amendment legalizes the possession, use, transport, and distribution of marijuana and marijuana paraphernalia by people age 21 and older. Individuals may possess or distribute one ounce or less of marijuana. Marijuana plants and marijuana produced from those plants may also be possessed under certain conditions. The amendment authorizes the State Department of Revenue (“Department”) to issue marijuana – related licenses for commercial cultivators and manufacturers, testing facilities, wholesalers, and retailers. Local governments may regulate or ban the establishment of licensees within their jurisdictions. The Department must enact rules to implement and enforce this amendment. The amendment requires the Legislature to pass laws regarding medical use of marijuana. The amendment does not legalize hemp; it requires the Legislature to pass laws regulating the cultivation, processing, and sale of hemp. The amendment imposes a 15% tax on marijuana sales. The tax revenue will be used for the Department’s costs incurred in implementing this amendment, with remaining revenue equally divided between the support of public schools and the State general fund. Judicial clarification of the amendment may be necessary. The amendment legalizes some substances that are considered felony controlled substances under current State law. Marijuana remains illegal under Federal law. Fiscal Note: Legalizing cannabis would provide revenues from licensing fees, sales tax, and a 15% excise tax.
