John Thune (R-S.D.) and Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) and U.S. Rep. Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.) today reintroduced the Gilt Edge Mine Conveyance Act, legislation that would authorize the state of South Dakota to purchase approximately 266 acres of U.S. Forest Service land in Lawrence County. The land transfer authorized by this legislation would allow the state to conduct a clean-up effort within the boundary of the Gilt Edge Mine superfund site once the Environmental Protection Agency completes its clean-up actions. "This legislation would make certain that the state of South Dakota is able to manage an efficient clean-up at the mine," said Thune, Rounds, and Johnson. "We have been working effectively with the state on this project, and we ask Congress to swiftly pass this legislation in order to fully complete this effort." "We appreciate the federal delegation assisting the state with the clean-up of this site," said Ryan Brunner, state commissioner of school and public lands. "The state is responsible for managing the entire superfund site but we cannot manage or control federal property making this legislation necessary." ###	1	2026-03-30T01:40:41Z	2026-04-06T19:33:37Z
