Jamestown (CSi) High radon levels are common in homes in Stutsman County, according to an inspector with First Choice Home Inspections.<\/p>\n

Darcy Herman,has tested has a radon level that is above what is considered a health risk. The high radon levels are found either in the basement or another part of the house.<\/p>\n

He found one home in Jamestown that tested below 4 picocuries.<\/p>\n

The average outdoor radon level is 0.4 picocuries per liter of air (pCi\/L), according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. An indoor level of 2 pCi\/L is a health risk and anything 4 pCi\/L or higher is a health hazard.<\/p>\n

North Dakota is considered a Zone 1 state, with all counties having a predicted average indoor radon level greater than 4 pCi\/L, according to the EPA. The odorless, radioactive gas comes from decaying uranium that seeps out of the ground and is a health risk as a carcinogen when it accumulates inside buildings.<\/p>\n

He adds, that Radon abatement can be as simple as a polyethylene sheet<\/p>\n

Free radon tests are available to pick up at Central Valley Health Distric in Jamestown.<\/p>\n

Free radon kits are also available from the Department of Health. Do-it-yourself radon mitigation videos can be seen at ndhealth.gov under radon.<\/p>\n

(CSi) Foster County has declared a fire emergency and burn ban effective immediately.<\/p>\n

A release from Foster County Emergency Manager Jess Earle states that the lack of snow and rain combined with warm temperatures and high winds have caused excessive dry down of fuels. This increases the chance of disastrous wild fires that could potentially overwhelm the local Fire Departments resources and cause inordinate equipment wear and damage.<\/p>\n

The Foster County Commissioners declared the Burn Ban and Fire Emergency including all of its incorporated cities with the exception for the City of Carrington. The burn restrictions will be in effect until further notice whenever the Fire Danger Rating is “Extreme” or a Red Flag Warning has been issued.<\/p>\n

Individuals who violate the burn ban will be guilty of a Class B Misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of up to $1,500 and 30 days in jail.<\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – An appeals court has upheld the conviction and sentence of a North Dakota farmer who was found guilty of intentionally destroying potatoes to collect federal farm insurance payments.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A jury in December 2014 found Aaron Johnson, who lived near Cooperstown, guilty of conspiring to receive illegal payments and making false statements. He was sentenced to four years in prison.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities say Johnson added chemicals used in septic systems to the spuds to speed up deterioration.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Johnson argued in his appeal that the government’s key witness was not credible. A three-judge panel of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said in an opinion released Wednesday that there was sufficient evidence to support the outcome.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Aaron Johnson’s brother, Derek, was convicted in the case and sentence to 1 1\/2 years in prison.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Gov. Jack Dalrymple is asking agency directors to include 10 percent spending reductions in their proposed budgets for the next two years.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Republican governor’s directive on Wednesday reflects a downturn in tax revenues due to slumping oil prices and activity. The blueprint is the biggest proposed budget decrease for state agencies since Democratic Gov. George Sinner suggested 10 percent reductions in 1992.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota Budget Director Pam Sharp says Dalrymple’s budget plan is “appropriate and is needed” due to less-than-forecast tax collections.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Dalrymple’s directive marks the beginning of the lengthy job of writing his spending recommendations for the 2017 Legislature. Lawmakers will get Dalrymple’s blueprint in December.<\/p>\n

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A Fargo man has been arrested for allegedly having a pipe bomb in his vehicle.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Highway Patrol <\/a>says a trooper stopped a speeding vehicle on Interstate 29 in Fargo about 9 a.m. Wednesday, and discovered a homemade pipe bomb in the glove box.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Red River Valley Bomb Squad responded to the scene and took the explosive to a secure site.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The 26-year-old driver was arrested on several charges, including felony possession of an explosive.<\/p>\n

THOMPSON, N.D. (AP) – A proposed school expansion and renovation project in Thompson appears to have failed for the third time in four years.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0Unofficial results show that an $11 million proposal received the support of 59 percent of voters in Tuesday’s election, but 60 percent approval was needed.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Proposals in 2012 and 2013 also received majority support, but not the required 60 percent supermajority.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The most recent proposal was for new classrooms, a new technical education wing and other improvements. It would have cost the owner of a $200,000 home an additional $600 in property taxes annually for the next two decades<\/p>\n

\u00a0MEDORA, N.D. (AP) – Billings County leaders want more information before deciding whether to approve a proposed oil refinery that would be about 3 miles from Theodore Roosevelt National Park.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The county’s planning and zoning board last month recommended approval of the plant, but the County Commission on Tuesday tabled taking action. Chairman Jim Arthaud says Houston-based Meridian Energy Group Inc. needs to first firm up plans for things like infrastructure work and emergency planning.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Project manager Dan Hedrington said Meridian is comfortable with the request, and will be back before the commission in June.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Meridian plans a 55,000-barrel-per-day, $850 million refinery between Fryburg and Belfield. The state Health Department has said the plant will have to meet more stringent air quality standards because of its proximity to the park.<\/p>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

\u00a0COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) – Donald Trump says he thinks John Kasich (KAY’-sihk) is “doing the right thing.” His comments to CNN followed word from officials in the Kasich campaign that the Ohio governor will end his presidential bid Wednesday, leaving Trump with no remaining Republican rivals for the nomination. Ted Cruz announced\u00a0Tuesday night that he was suspending his campaign, after losing the Indiana primary to Trump.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – A federal judge says he may order Hillary Clinton to testify under oath about whether she used a private email server as secretary of state to evade public records disclosures. The judge Wednesday signed an order granting a request from the conservative legal advocacy group Judicial Watch to question six current and former State Department staffers. The list includes some of Clinton’s closest aides from her tenure as the nation’s top diplomat. Based on what might be gleaned in those interviews, the judge says a sworn deposition from Clinton “may be necessary.”
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – Even though she lost the Indiana primary to Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton is now 93 percent of the way to clinching the Democratic nomination. She split enough of the delegates with Sanders Tuesday to move closer to the 2,383 delegates needed to win. Counting superdelegates, she’s just 178 delegates short, and is on track to clinch the nomination by early June.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) – Investigators have found that a small airplane hit a bald eagle before it crashed just north of Anchorage, Alaska, last month, killing all four people on board.

The pilot, co-pilot and two passengers died when the plane went down April 20 near a small airport about 20 miles north of Anchorage.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) – A committee of state lawmakers in Oklahoma has given preliminary approval to legislation that would allow people to openly carry guns without a license, training or background checks. The sponsor says he needs signatures from seven lawmakers in order to schedule a hearing. The bill would allow adults over 21 and without a felony conviction to openly carry firearms without a license, training or background checks. Several business, government and education groups, including the NBA’s Oklahoma City Thunder, oppose the measure.
