Bill > HF919

This bill appropriates $10 million from the state's general fund in fiscal year 2026 to the Public Facilities Authority, specifically designated as a grant to the First District Association, a dairy cooperative located in Litchfield, Minnesota. The purpose of this funding is to support the design, engineering, construction, equipping, and furnishing of a new wastewater industrial pretreatment facility in the city of Litchfield. An industrial pretreatment facility is a specialized infrastructure that helps industrial facilities like dairy cooperatives treat their wastewater before it enters the municipal sewage system, ensuring that the wastewater meets environmental and regulatory standards. This appropriation is additional to a previous appropriation made in Laws 2023, chapter 71, article 1, section 15, subdivision 7, and is intended for the same purpose. The bill specifies that it will become effective the day after it receives final enactment, which means the funding will be available immediately after the bill is signed into law.
