Bill > SF254

This bill appropriates $3,500,000 from state bond proceeds to fund a food waste separation system project in Olmsted County. Specifically, the funding will be used to design, construct, and equip a system at an organic materials management facility that prepares food waste for recycling purposes. The Minnesota commissioner of management and budget is authorized to sell and issue state bonds up to $3,500,000 to provide the funding, following standard state bonding procedures outlined in Minnesota Statutes and the state constitution. The bill provides for the grant to be administered through the Pollution Control Agency, which will provide the funds directly to Olmsted County. The legislation becomes effective immediately after it is enacted, enabling the county to proceed with the materials recovery facility improvements aimed at enhancing food waste recycling infrastructure.
