This proactive legislative package:

  • 1. Spreads the risk and extraordinary

cost of law enforcement for pipeline projects among: the State, counties, federal government, pipeline companies and rioters (SB 190)

  • 2. Creates a fund and legal remedies to

pursue out-of-state money funding the riots (SB 189)

State Perspective

  • 1. Financial controls
  • 2. Law enforcement expertise
  • 3. Need for county coordination
  • 4. Presently: some risk of extraordinary costs
  • 5. Protect constitutional rights
  • 6. Financial: sales and use tax; jobs during

construction and increase county property tax base

slide-11
SLIDE 11

County Perspective

  • 1. No significant cash reserves
  • 2. Not designed to manage a multi-county project
  • 3. Present law: most risk of extraordinary costs
  • 4. Long term gain in real estate tax base
  • 5. Challenge: no short term revenue sources

“I support an all-of-the-above energy policy and that includes the ability to safely move energy resources to where they are needed but this national priority could become a flashpoint in my state. This next-generation pipeline funding model was developed to directly address issues caused by

  • ut-of-state rioters funded by out-of-state

interests that have attacked nearby projects. The current model for developing major energy infrastructure projects clearly needed an update,” continued Noem.

Next Generation Plan Principles

  • 1. Proactive and transparent
  • 2. Coordinated response
  • 3. Protect rights: property, free speech

and peaceful assembly

  • 4. Protect taxpayers from extraordinary

law enforcement costs

  • 5. Recognize differences of opinion

AND the rule of law

  • 6. Rights end when violence

begins: rioters do not control economic development

  • 7. Shared cost and risk: state,

counties, federal government, pipeline companies and rioters

  • 8. Not to do: no new boards,

commissions or taxes

Top Two Concerns:

Timing of introduction. Why week 9?

  • 1. New administration: week 9
  • 2. First in nation - new approach
  • 3. National discussion
  • 4. Take the time to do it right
  • 5. Months of collaboration and research

Limit on Free Speech? No. State v. Bad Heart Bull, 257 N.W.2d 715 (S.D. 1977): “...the crime of riot in South Dakota is violence or the immediate threat

  • thereof. As such, it relates to and prohibits

certain defined conduct rather than forms of expression. Laws of this nature are needed and necessary to preserve good order and to protect all persons and all property from the violence of a few. They do not violate the constitutional rights of free expression and assembly as those rights end when violence begins.”

Safeguards: SB 189 and SB 190

As to third parties: 1. Riot litigation: proceeds to State of SD 2. Riot litigation: name of State only 3. Bond by pipeline company 4. Additions to bond 5. Cease and desist order by DPS Secretary 6. Communication within EMS 7. Appeal 8. Circuit Court action 9. Discretion granted to Secretary (section 16)

  • 10. Riot litigation: optional

Statutory Legislative Oversight: 1. SB 189: informational budget (p 3, line 13) 2. SB 190: informational budget (p 4, line 12) 3. Executive Board: release bond (p 11, line 5)
