SB 558 - This act reorganizes the Soil and Water Conservation Commission by expanding the number of farmer members from five to six with the three ex-officio members remaining the same. Three of the farmer members shall reside north of the Missouri River and three shall reside south. No senatorial district may have more than one farmer member.

Four farmer members must be present in order to determine an action by the Commission. The chairman may vote only in the event of a tie.

This act is similar to SB 30 (1999).
