It has been a fairly quiet summer on South Dakota lakes that had been closed earlier in the year.
Senator Jason Frerichs of Wilmot, says the bill passed in a June special session has done what was expected
The lakes were closed to public access after a state Supreme Court decision. Frerichs says he hasn’t heard many complaints at this point
Frerichs says this year’s bill could be a framework for a more permanent fix
The bill has a sunset date of next June first, so the 2018 legislature will have to take further action.
