S.D. Admin. R. 68:02:01:37
The applicant shall provide an equity contribution of a minimum of 10 percent of the total project costs as determined by the board. The requirement may be waived by the affirmative vote of two-thirds vote of the members of the board present and voting if the equity contribution is not necessary to secure the interests of the board. In-kind contributions and completed work may be applied toward the equity contribution and total project costs if, in the judgment of the board, such in-kind contributions and completed work contribute substantially to the project. Costs associated with the preliminary design stage may not be considered as equity contribution except for board-approved intellectual property and innovative technology research and development expenses. The applicant shall provide proof of the existence or availability of the equity contribution.
