N.D. Cent. Code § 61-04.1-27
When a weather modification authority is about to expire, the board of county commissioners of any such county may by resolution authorize the creation of such weather modification authority and all its powers, including the power to certify a tax levy as provided by section 61-04.1-26, for additional five-year periods; provided, the resolution authorizing the creation of such weather modification authority is adopted by the board of county commissioners before the expiration date prescribed in the preceding resolution for its termination. Upon passing such resolution for the creation of the authority, the board of county commissioners shall appoint five weather modification authority commissioners to five-year terms of office, subsequently filling vacancies in the manner prescribed by section 61-04.1-23. The board of county commissioners may remove any weather modification commissioner from office whenever it appears, by competent evidence and after hearing, that the commissioner has been guilty of misconduct, malfeasance, crime in office, neglect of duty in office, or of habitual drunkenness or gross incompetency.
