The bill appropriates $3,300,000 from the general fund for fiscal year 2026 to support the construction of wastewater infrastructure on the Red Lake Reservation, specifically for the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians. The funds will be allocated to the Public Facilities Authority for the development of a wastewater stabilization pond and the necessary water and sewer line infrastructure in the Little Rock District. This appropriation is designated as a one-time funding source and will remain available until the project is either completed or abandoned, in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, section 16A.642.
Additionally, the bill includes a provision stating that the effective date of this section will be the day following its final enactment. This ensures that the funding can be accessed promptly to address the wastewater infrastructure needs of the Red Lake Reservation.
