From Interstate Engineering

Jamestown, ND (KCSi-T.V. News Jun 26, 2013) — Interstate Engineering, Inc. is providing design and construction engineering services for the City of Jamestown’s sanitary sewer system due to existing sewage collection deficiencies that exist in the northwest and southwest portions of the city.

In order to correct system deficiencies in the sanitary sewer system as well as provide the appropriate capacity to handle peak flows generated during flooding and wet weather events, the project will have two phases.

The first phase will include inflow and infiltration defect repairs to the collection and conveyance system. Phase two will include capacity upgrades for major lift stations and force mains to convey peak flows during flood and wet weather events.

Included in the work will be improvements to the sanitary sewer; work on lift stations #8, #9, and #10; and improvements to the associated force main serving the northwest and southwest areas of Jamestown.

Construction on Jamestown’s sanitary sewer system is scheduled to begin in early July. The Jamestown sanitary sewer project includes improvements to the sanitary sewer and work on three lift stations. Work on the project is expected to take place starting July 8 in the area of 5th St and 3rd Ave NW in Jamestown. Motorists are asked to slow down in construction areas, use caution and watch for workers and equipment.

Reminder: an open house will be held for the Jamestown sanitary sewer project from 5 to 7 p.m. on July 2 at Jamestown City Hall.

 MINTO, N.D. (AP) – The latest search has turned up no sign of a Minto man presumed drowned during flooding in northeastern North Dakota two months ago.
 
     Fifty-five-year-old Guy Miller was driving a pickup truck that was washed off a Walsh County road April 29.

About 140 friends and family members turned out Tuesday in the latest efort to find his body but had no success.
 
     Sheriff Lauren Wild says there are no current plans for additional searches.

 

 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Bismarck police say an 18-year-old man missing since mid-May is now believed to have been killed.
 
     Authorities have not found the body of John Swain, but they’ve charged a man with murdering him. Twenty-five-year-old Theo Crowe, of Trenton, is in custody in Williams County on an unrelated matter.
 
     Crowe’s attorney in that case says he isn’t representing him on the murder charge. Court documents don’t list an attorney for Crowe in Burleigh County.
 
     Police say Swain had moved to Bismarck recently from Sioux Falls, S.D., for work reasons. His roommate reported him missing on May 14. Authorities recently recovered evidence in the case that led them to charge Crowe.
 
     Police are urging people to be on the lookout for signs of fresh digging, where a body might have been buried.

 

STANLEY, N.D. (AP) – Authorities have identified one of the three victims of a fiery crash in the western North Dakota oil patch last Friday.
 
     The Highway Patrol says 23-year-old Tyler Fischer, of Minot, was a passenger in a pickup truck involved in the wreck on U.S. Highway 2 about 3 miles east of Stanley. A tanker trailer loaded with crude oil and four other vehicles also were involved. The tanker exploded and all of the other vehicles burned.
 
     The two others who died have been identified only as a 26-year-old man from Wahpeton who was driving the vehicle Fischer was in, and a 41-year-old man from Minot who was driving a different pickup.
 
     The patrol says fog that reduced visibility was a major contributor to the crash, which also injured three other people.

 

 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – An abortion-rights group that’s filed a lawsuit for North Dakota’s sole abortion clinic also is representing groups in several states across the country.
 
     The New York-based Center for Reproductive Rights is representing the Red River Women’s Clinic in Fargo in the lawsuit filed Tuesday. It seeks to block a measure that would ban abortions as early as six weeks into a pregnancy, when a fetal heartbeat can first be detected. The lawsuit also is challenging another law that would prohibit women from having an abortion because a fetus has a genetic defect. 
 
     Attorney Janet Crepps says the so-called fetal heartbeat measure “absolutely is the most extreme in the nation.”
 
     The group says it also has lawsuits pending in Alaska, Arkansas, Arizona, Maryland, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, New York and Minnesota.

 

 FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A gay couple from Fargo planning to get married in Minnesota this summer is celebrating a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that should provide federal benefits for legally married same-sex couples.
 
     But they and others who are on both sides of the issue don’t expect the decision to change North Dakota’s stance against gay marriage.
 
     Fargo’s Lenny Tweeden, who plans to marry Wayne Rosell in August, calls the ruling a victory, but says he’s “not expecting a difference” in attitudes among most state residents.
 
     Seventy-three percent of North Dakota voters in 2004 approved a law against same-sex marriage.
 
     Christopher Dodson, a spokesman for the North Dakota Catholic Conference, says the ruling is part of a “trend we’re concerned about,” but says the state law is on solid legal footing.

 

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A worker at a Taco Bell fast food restaurant in Fargo is accused of groping two female customers who ordered food in the drive-thru.
 
     Twenty-year-old Austin Brady is charged with felony breaking into a vehicle and misdemeanor sexual assault. Court documents do not list an attorney for him.
 
     The incidents allegedly occurred in March and April. Brady denied to police that he assaulted the women and said that in the April incident the women in the vehicle demanded he give them free food.
 
     The restaurant manager denied comment to The Forum newspaper.

 

In world and national news…

WASHINGTON (AP) – Although supporters of gay marriage are celebrating two rulings Wednesday from the Supreme Court, others say they’re disappointed with the court action. House Speaker John Boehner (BAY’-nur) says he’s sorry to see the court strike down part of the Defense of Marriage Act — a provision that denied federal tax, health and pension benefits from same-sex couples who are legally married. Boehner says he hopes states will continue to define marriage as the union of a man and a woman.

 
     SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – Wednesday’s Supreme Court ruling that cleared the way for same-sex marriages to resume in California has been greeted with applause by a crowd that gathered at San Francisco’s City Hall. But at the same time, the reaction was shaded by the fact that the court had sidestepped the larger question of whether banning gay marriage is unconstitutional. The justices let stand a trial court ruling that overturned California’s voter-approved ban on gay marriage. The court held that the coalition of religious groups that put Proposition 8 on the ballot didn’t have the authority to defend it after state officials refused to do so.
 
     ATTLEBORO, Mass. (AP) – Police in Massachusetts have charged New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez with murder and weapons counts in connection with the slaying of a semi-pro football player whose body was found in an industrial park about a mile from Hernandez’s home. The charge was revealed Wednesday in Attleboro District Court after Hernandez was arrested at his sprawling North Attleborough home. Less than two hours after his arrest, the Patriots cut Hernandez from the team.
 
     SANFORD, Fla. (AP) – A friend of Trayvon Martin who was on the phone with him moments before he was fatally shot by George Zimmerman has taken the stand in Zimmerman’s murder trial. She described how Martin complained to her that the neighborhood watch volunteer was watching him as he walked home from a convenience store. Rachel Jeantel is considered one of the prosecution’s most important witnesses. She says Martin described Zimmerman as “creepy.”
 
     NEW YORK (AP) – Stocks were holding onto their gains from earlier in the day, Wednesday,  despite word that the U.S. economy has slowed down. The Dow has been more than 150 points higher in afternoon trading. This, even though the government reported that the economy’s growth was just 1.8 percent, at an annual rate, in the first three months of the year, down from an earlier estimate of 2.4 percent.
