BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Gov. Doug Burgum is asking for some federal help in dealing with $57 million in public infrastructure damage caused by severe spring storms and flooding in North Dakota. Burgum has requested a presidential disaster declaration that would provide federal aid to help repair roads, bridges and railways. The request involves 40 of the state’s 53 counties. Historic spring snowstorms in western North Dakota and extensive flooding in the east broke precipitation records and knocked out power to more than 10,000 residents. The snowy and cold weather in April set more than two dozen records in the state, including nearly 10 in Bismarck, which experienced its snowiest April on record.
