This bill appropriates funds for capital improvements to the Saint Paul Regional Water Services, specifically targeting the Fridley pump station and the replacement of lead drinking water service lines. It allocates $3,500,000 from the bond proceeds fund to the Public Facilities Authority for a grant aimed at rehabilitating and replacing aging infrastructure at the Fridley pump station. The improvements include repairs to electrical, mechanical, and piping systems, as well as upgrades to water pumps and motors. Additionally, the bill authorizes the sale and issuance of state bonds to finance these appropriations, in accordance with existing Minnesota statutes and constitutional provisions.

Furthermore, the bill includes a provision for an additional appropriation from the bond proceeds fund for the removal and replacement of lead drinking water service lines, although the specific amount for this appropriation is not detailed in the text. Similar to the Fridley pump station funding, the commissioner of management and budget is tasked with selling and issuing bonds to cover this expense as well. Both sections of the bill will take effect the day following final enactment.
