Bill > HB986

This bill appropriates $5 million from the State General Fund to the Humphreys County Board of Supervisors specifically for purchasing land and developing a new sewer lagoon system in the community of Midnight, Mississippi, for the fiscal year running from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026. The funds will be disbursed by the State Treasurer through warrants issued by the State Fiscal Officer upon proper requisition, following standard legal procedures for state funding allocation. A sewer lagoon is a type of wastewater treatment system typically used in rural areas, where waste is collected in large, lined ponds and naturally treated through biological processes. The bill specifies that the appropriation will become effective on July 1, 2025, and the funding is intended to help the local community improve its wastewater infrastructure by creating a new treatment facility.
