Bismarck, ND (KCSi-T.V. News) — The National Weather Service in Bismarck, has issued the latest Flood and Water Resources Outlook.<\/p>\n
The report was issued on Thursday Jul 26, 2012.<\/p>\n
The outlook for the James River basin is for the period, of late July-late October 2012.<\/p>\n
It says, the main risk of flooding is generally associated with heavy rain events, that would add significant flow to the river.<\/p>\n
It says the over all risk tends to be normal to slightly below normal, with the base flow normal to below normal.<\/p>\n
The report says, the risk of flooding on is largely determined by thunderstorms, producing heavy rainfall, which can cause flash flooding.<\/p>\n
As of last Thursday, there were no river locations on the James River above flood, stage and the reservoir levels are generally within their normal operating ranges.<\/p>\n
The Weather Service says, that high releases from the dams are only a remote possibility and not anticipated over the next 90-days.<\/p>\n
\u00a0The Weather Outlook Summary, calls for warm summer conditions continuing over the next couple of weeks, with continued chances for scattered showers and thunderstorms with possible locally heavy rainfall.<\/p>\n
The Climate Prediction Center suggests all of North Dakota has a 50% chance of above normal temperatures for August, and an equal chance of above normal, normal, or below normal precipitation.<\/p>\n
\u00a0The three month outlook, August through October 2012 has the southeast corner of North Dakota with a greater than normal probability of above normal temperatures, with the rest of the state being in the equal chance category for above normal, normal, or below normal Temperatures.<\/p>\n
All of North Dakota is in the equal chance category for above normal, normal, or below normal precipitation for the same time.<\/p>\n
The report says rivers, streams, and soil moisture have taken a dramatic turn over the past several weeks with numerous locations showing river stages below their long-term median values.<\/p>\n
With that, it\u2019s expected there will be a below normal risk of widespread flooding.<\/p>\n
The U.S. Drought Monitor reflects a worsening drought over the past month. About 22% of North Dakota is not designated as being in a drought, while 16% of the state is considered as in a moderate to severe drought.<\/p>\n
The next forecasts will be issued on August 23, 2012.<\/p>\n

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Three teenagers may face charges after a North Dakota Highway Patrol trooper clocked their cars at 145 mph on Interstate 29.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Patrol Capt. Bryan Niewind (NEE’-wind) says the cars were spotted just before midnight Thursday going north on the highway through Fargo. They got off on the 12th Avenue North exit and took off to the east, going about 90 mph.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Niewind says the trooper stopped pursuing the cars near the North Dakota State University campus for safety reasons.<\/p>\n
But he was able to identify the vehicles, and the cars and their drivers were later found in Fargo and Moorhead, Minn.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The drivers were 15, 16 and 17 years old.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Niewind says the youths could face charges of fleeing, reckless driving and reckless endangerment.

\u00a0GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s Supreme Court upheld the
\ndismissal of a Grand Forks technology education teacher for
\nincidents in which he reportedly demeaned a number of students.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The school district fired Cornell Kilber in November 2010 for
\nunprofessional conduct.<\/p>\n
On Thursday the Supreme Court refused to overturn the action.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Kilber taught in Grand Forks schools for almost 20 years before
\nhe was dismissed.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Court records say he called one black student “the chocolate
\none,” said all Muslims are terrorists and referred to a special
\nneeds student as “stupid.”
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 On one occasion, Kilber allegedly stormed out of his classroom
\nwhile saying to his students, “To hell with all of you.”<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Court filings say the teacher’s questionable behavior continued
\nafter he got several warnings that he needed to improve.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – State and federal regulators are in North
\nDakota’s oil patch as part of a routine inspection.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota environmental health chief Dave Glatt (glaht) says
\nofficials from the state and the federal Environmental Protection
\nAgency are inspecting wells and drilling operations. They also are
\nmonitoring air quality.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Glatt says the inspectors have been in the field for the past
\nfew days, and their work could be completed Friday. He doesn’t know
\nyet if any problems were found.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Glatt and EPA spokesman Richard Mylott say similar inspections
\nhave been done over the past few years with the increased activity
\nin western North Dakota’s oil-producing region.<\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota farmers and ranchers soon will
\nbe able to cut hay and graze cattle on land that’s been set aside
\nfor conservation.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota federal Farm Service Agency director Aaron Krauter
\nsays emergency haying and grazing has been approved on all
\nConservation Reserve Program land.<\/p>\n
It can begin on Aug. 2, after the primary nesting season ends.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Krauter says both haying and grazing won’t be allowed on the
\nsame land.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Conservation Reserve Program pays farmers to set aside
\nenvironmentally sensitive land and plant grass on it as a way to
\ncut down soil erosion and provide habitat for wildlife.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Krauter says there are about 1.6 million acres of CRP land
\navailable in North Dakota for haying or grazing.

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A North Dakota advisory board says the
\nstate’s energy policy should include money for roads, research,
\nhousing and regulation – as well as support for renewable energy.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota Commerce Department director Al Anderson says the
\nrecommendations will be presented to the Legislature next year.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 They’re the product of the EmPower North Dakota Commission,
\nwhich includes energy industry representatives. Anderson says they
\nrepresent an update of existing policy.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Dickinson Press reports Anderson spoke Thursday to a North
\nDakota legislative committee that’s studying energy issues.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The commission’s agenda says local governments affected by oil
\ndevelopment should get a larger share of state oil tax collections.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The panel suggests expanding a state housing incentive fund and
\nearmarking more money to research ways to use natural gas to make
\nother products.<\/p>\n
