flag South Dakota passed a bill limiting eminent domain to non-invasive inspections without consent, protecting property rights after pipeline disputes.

flag A South Dakota bill named after landowner Jared Bossly, which limits developers' use of eminent domain to only minimal, non-invasive inspections without landowner consent, has passed the Senate Commerce and Energy Committee unanimously. flag Sponsored by Senator Mark Lapka, the legislation responds to opposition against the Summit Carbon Pipeline and aligns with a 2024 state Supreme Court ruling that barred the pipeline company from using eminent domain. flag The bill, now moving to the full Senate, aims to protect property rights and prevent future disputes, following claims of trespass, property damage, and privacy violations during unauthorized surveys.
