Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Board of Water and Natural Resources (“Board”), acting as the South Dakota Conservancy District (“District”) is seeking proposals from qualified firms to provide investment banking, underwriting and additional services, such as remarketing, related to negotiated issuances for a period of three years. Additional bonds are to be issued pursuant to the Fifth Amended and Restated Master Trust Indenture dated as of September 1, 2010 (the “Master Indenture”) to fund projects within the State of South Dakota’s (“State”) Clean Water State Revolving Fund Program (“CW SRF Program”) and Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Program (“DW SRF Program”) (collectively, “SRF Programs”). The District currently anticipates issuing State Revolving Fund Program Bonds, Series 2018 (the “2018 Bonds”). Proceeds of the 2018 Bonds will be used to provide additional leverage proceeds of approximately $100 million. The leveraged proceeds will be issued on a tax-exempt basis with a final maturity of 20 years. As needed or prudent, the District may issue additional series to leverage the SRF Programs, provide additional state match for capitalization grants or refinance outstanding bonds in the future.
