S.D. Codified Laws § 46A-1-29

Upon presentation of a request to authorize the construction of a water facility of the state water resources management system by the Board of Water and Natural Resources in accordance with § 46A-1-11 , the board shall provide a plan for financing the construction of the project to the Legislature, including, in the case of a project to be financed under § 46A-1-49 , a general description of the anticipated financing agreement with the participating persons or public entities. If the board deems it necessary to request authorization for the issuance of bonds by the district, the Legislature shall determine whether such authorization shall be given in the same act as it authorizes the inclusion of construction of the project as part of the state water resources management system. If the Legislature authorizes the issuance of bonds for the construction of the facilities, it shall specify the amount of bonds that may be issued by the district for construction of the project, including any amount of bonds issued to fund a debt service reserve for the bonds or for capitalized interest during construction of the project. Pursuant to authorization by the Legislature, the district may issue bonds to acquire or construct or arrange for construction of, or to enter into a financing agreement with persons or public entities for, any one project, or more than one, or to refund bonds heretofore or hereafter issued for each project or facility or to fund a debt service reserve for the bonds or for capitalized interest during construction of the project and to provide for the security and payment of the bonds and for the rights of the holders of the bonds. The board may issue bonds in the amount of up to thirty percent greater than the specific amount authorized by the Legislature for financing any specific project if increases in construction costs, changes in engineering designs, or minor changes in the area or number of persons served by a project require such an increase to complete the project, and if the amount of funds obtained from the district through its bonding power does not exceed the authorization of the Legislature by more than thirty percent for any specific project.
