/(AGRI: Farm Accountability and Resilience Measures Program) (A) Of the funds appropriated to the Department of Agriculture for the Farm Accountability and Resilience Measures Program, $30 million shall be allocated for staple row crop assistance and $5,000,000 shall be allocated for specialty crop assistance. The department is authorized to reallocate any unexpended or unobligated funds between these categories as necessary to maximize distribution to eligible producers; however, the agency shall prioritize full utilization within each category before reallocating funds. The program shall be administered in coordination with the United States Department of Agriculture Farm Service Agency (USDA FSA). The department shall utilize existing federal data and frameworks to the maximum extent practicable to ensure efficient and timely distribution of funds.

 (B) To be eligible for assistance under this proviso, a producer must: (1) be actively engaged in farming in South Carolina; (2) intend to farm in the next calendar year and can sign an affidavit to that effect; (3) have planted acres or production data certified with USDA FSA or other verifiable records acceptable to the administering agency; (4) assume financial risk in the production of an eligible agricultural commodity; and (5) comply with conservation and eligibility requirements consistent with USDA FSA program standards.

 (C) Payments shall be made on a per-acre basis using FSA-certified planted acreage data. The program shall utilize a flat statewide per-acre payment rate across eligible row crop commodities, modeled on the federal Farm Bridge Assistance Program. Double crop acres, including all initial and subsequently planted crops, are eligible. Prevent plant acres are not eligible. The per-acre rate shall reflect approximately fifty percent of documented economic losses, subject to available funding and legislative proration.

 (D) A portion of the funds shall be allocated to establish a Specialty Crop Assistance component to provide payments to producers of fruits, vegetables, and other specialty crops grown in South Carolina. Payments for specialty crops shall be structured to mirror the federal Assistance for Specialty Crop Farmers framework, utilizing either a per-acre payment rate or a production-based or sales-based payment methodology, as determined by the administering agencies based on available and verifiable data. Where USDA FSA acreage data is not available, the agencies may rely on other verifiable records, including crop insurance data, state or federal program participation records, or certified producer documentation.

 (E) If total eligible requests exceed available funds, payments shall be prorated proportionally across all eligible applicants.

 (F) Total payments to any individual or legal entity shall not exceed one hundred thirty-five thousand dollars. Payment attribution, entity structuring, and actively engaged determinations shall be consistent with USDA FSA payment limitation rules.

 (G) Eligible commodities shall include, but are not limited to, row crops, such as corn, cotton, soybeans, wheat, and peanuts; and specialty crops, including fruits and vegetables, as defined by the department consistent with federal program definitions.

 (H) Acreage, production, or revenue data shall be verified using USDA FSA records or other reliable data sources to minimize administrative burden and reduce fraud. The department may enter into data-sharing agreements as necessary to implement this proviso.

 (I) Administrative costs shall be minimized by leveraging existing state and federal resources.

 (J) The department shall provide a report to the Chairmen of the Senate Finance Committee and House Ways and Means Committee no later than March 1, 2027, detailing total funds distributed; the number of recipients; distribution by commodity type, including specialty crops; the geographic distribution of funds; and any recommendations for future agricultural risk mitigation programs.

 (K) If the department determines that a person who received assistance provided inaccurate information, then the person shall refund the entire amount of the assistance. If the person does not refund the appropriate amount, the Department of Revenue shall utilize the provisions of the Setoff Debt Collection Act to collect the money from the person./

 (B) The review shall address: (1) the accuracy of the $150 million figure and the risk of further cost growth;(2) whether the acquisition and development costs associated with the Scout Motors Site in Blythewood were greater than they would have been had the Department of Commerce selected a tract that is flatter and more open and whether such a tract was available; (3) the adequacy of the Department of Commerce's original environmental due diligence and consultant qualifications; (4) when the Department of Commerce or its agents received notice that the original mitigation package was inadequate, and what action was taken; (5) the prudence of commencing upland construction before the federal wetlands permit issued, including the decision to retain rather than demobilize heavy equipment during the five-month permit suspension; (6) the itemized basis for the road overruns, distinguishing scheduling disruption from estimation error;(7) all phases of construction, subcontracts, Gantt charts, pay applications, change orders and payments; (8) whether the incentive contract or any professional liability remedy provides a basis to recover overrun costs from responsible parties; and (9) what systemic reforms to the Department of Commerce's project management, environmental due diligence, and legislative reporting practices are needed to prevent recurrence.

 (C) The LAC shall also determine: (1) a complete payment schedule identifying each payee, the legal basis, amount, and deadline for each remaining obligation; (2) the amount owed to South Carolina Department of Transportation and whether that interagency obligation warrants the same urgency as payments to private parties; (3) the amount attributable to future environmental remediation, its projected payment schedule, and whether a phased appropriation would satisfy all contractual remaining obligations; (4) whether any portion of the $150 million reflects contingent or unincurred costs; and (5) whether any remaining obligations are in default or at imminent risk of default and the amount required to cure or prevent that default.

 (D) All state agencies shall cooperate fully and produce requested records within fifteen days. The LAC shall have access to all contracts, invoices, correspondence, consultant reports, and permitting and communications records related to the project.
