The contract will expand treatment services for adults with a severe methamphetamine use disorder who require more intensive treat- ment and support due to the imminent risk for relapse. “Meth is a serious issue in South Dakota that not only devastates individuals, but tears apart families,” said Governor Kristi Noem. “As we work to expand addiction prevention across the state, I’m thrilled to partner with the Rosebud Sioux Tribe in prioritizing treatment services. This partnership will have a tremendous impact on increasing access to services for people struggling with addiction and helping them along the road to recovery.” The contract with Rosebud Sioux Tribe increases the number of providers for Intensive Methamphetamine Treatment to six across the state. This will be the only Intensive Methamphetamine Treatment program operated by a tribal treatment program. These providers utilize best practices shown to be effective in the treat- ment of methamphetamine use disorder. “This contract will go a long way toward helping people beat their meth addiction and return to their jobs and families,” said Department of Social Services Secretary Laurie Gill. “Individuals seeking treatment for a methamphetamine use disorder may be treated at any treatment agency, and the majority may be treated on an outpatient basis in their home community. Individuals with a severe disorder may require long-term treatment to allow for recovery of cognitive capacity and ongoing case management, in addition to treatment, to aid and support recovery.” This contract is a result of a request for proposal to provide methamphetamine treatment services in South Dakota. Earlier this year, Noem allocated state dollars for meth education and awareness, added four additional meth troopers to South Dakota’s Highway Patrol ranks, and added two Drug and Criminal Investigation agents in order to increase drug enforcement. This fall, Noem will launch a targeted meth awareness campaign to expose South Dakotans to the danger of meth use. Additional Public Land Available For Use In The Black Hills National Forest Additional acreage is now available for public use and enjoyment on the Black Hills National Forest. The USDA Forest Service recently purchased approximately 350 acres of land from the Trust for Public Land, utilizing funding from the Land and Water Conservation Fund. The land was owned by Myrle G. Case Trust c/o Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. There are nine parcels included in the purchase located approximately 5 miles north of the City of Custer and adjacent to Crazy Horse Mountain, along US Highway 385. The purpose of the purchase is for preservation of wildlife habitat, protection of at-risk watersheds and impaired streams, and to provide recreational opportunities for the public. The parcels are located within an impaired watershed area called Spring Creek. “The Forest has the opportunity to address the impaired stream (Tenderfoot Creek) of which approximately 3.6 miles flow within the parcels,” said Meagan Buehler, Realty Specialist, Black Hills National Forest. Local municipal, state and federal agencies have been working collaboratively to bring Spring Creek into compliance with state water quality standards. The purchase is also in line with the Revised 1997 Black Hills National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan, Phase II Amendment, which states, "In cooperation with other landowners, strive for improved landownership and access that benefit both public and private landowners."
