Plain-language change summary

The amendment to Senate Bill 252 changes the reporting requirement for Ashland County regarding its flood risk reduction projects. Instead of providing a comprehensive report summarizing all results by June 30, 2021, the county is now required to submit a progress report by the same date. This adjustment is important because it allows the county to focus on ongoing findings rather than waiting until all projects are complete, fostering quicker insights and adaptations if necessary.

a flood risk reduction pilot project and making an appropriation.

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau This bill appropriates $150,000 of general purpose revenue and requires the Department of Natural Resources to allocate that money in the 2019-21 fiscal biennium to Ashland County to design, implement, and evaluate not more than three demonstration projects that test natural flood risk reduction practices in that county.

The bill provides that allocated money may be used for engineering and design, materials, construction, pre-construction and post-construction monitoring, and project management.

Under the bill, DNR must require Ashland County to submit a report no later than June 30, 2021 summarizing the results of its demonstration projects, and DNR must submit to the legislature and to the Division of Emergency Management in the Department of Military Affairs a report summarizing the results of the demonstration projects and recommendations for how existing state policies or funding streams could be adapted to create incentives to protect and restore natural infrastructure and reduce floods.
