Bill > SB956

This bill appropriates $10 million from the Oregon General Fund to the Oregon Department of Administrative Services (DAS) during the 2025-2027 biennium, specifically to provide a grant to Heard Farms for expanding wastewater treatment infrastructure. The term "appropriates" means the bill allocates or sets aside a specific amount of money for a particular purpose, and "biennium" refers to a two-year period. The funding is additional to any other existing appropriations, meaning it does not replace or reduce other potential funding sources. The bill also includes a standard legislative effective date provision, specifying that the act will take effect 91 days after the adjournment sine die (Latin for "without a day" - meaning the final adjournment) of the 2025 regular session of the Eighty-third Legislative Assembly. This grant appears designed to support infrastructure improvements for wastewater treatment at Heard Farms, though the specific details of the infrastructure expansion are not provided in the bill text.
