Gov. Kristi Noem has signed an executive order extending the time frame during which hay haulers may move hay through February 2022. Under the order, hay haulers may move hay from two hours before sunrise to two hours after sunset.
Under statute, hay haulers are typically only allowed to move hay a halfhour before sunrise through a half-hour after sunset. The order applies to oversize hay haulers who have a permit. Those haulers must be properly equipped with warning lights and cannot run overweight.
