Jamestown, ND (KCSi-T.V. News Mar 19, 2013) — Stutsman County will implement new maximum load limits for trucks when spring road restrictions lift this summer.<\/p>\n

Townships will also be able to adopt the same restrictions, if they choose that option.<\/p>\n

The policy is geared to reduce damage to roads, distributing loads on multiple axles.<\/p>\n

It will allow trucks to carry larger loads, possibly reducing truck traffic.<\/p>\n

The load limits will go into effect, possibly in June 2013, when spring road restrictions are eased, and will pertain to all county roads, unless previously restricted.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Grand Forks says the Red River Valley\u00a0area is expected to be in for a “significant flood” this spring.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Greg Gust\u00a0says \u00a0flooding this year could match levels seen in 2010 and 2011. He says it shouldn’t be as bad as in 2009.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In 2010, the Red River crested at 36.99 feet. In 2011, it hit 38.75 feet, the fourth highest on record. The 2009 flood crested at 40.84 feet.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Gust says slow melting and record to near record cold temperatures are increasing the likelihood of a major flood.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 An official updated flood forecast will be released today.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Governor Jack Dalrymple (DAHL’-rimp-ul) yesterday hosted a conference call with officials in North Dakota and Saskatchewan, Canada, to discuss conditions for Souris (SUR’-ihs) River spring runoff. Canadian officials say recent snowfall has led them to increase water releases from the Boundary and Rafferty dams to maintain adequate reservoir capacity during spring runoff. The Souris is one of the few U.S. rivers that flows south to north into Canada.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A New Salem man accused of mistreating horses and mules has pleaded not guilty to four misdemeanor charges in Burleigh County.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 William Kiefer earlier this month pleaded not guilty to similar charges in neighboring Morton County.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities seized more than 150 animals from Kiefer’s properties in the two counties in January after finding nearly 100 dead animals.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Most of the seized animals have been adopted.<\/p>\n

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – The North Dakota Board of Higher Education has called a special meeting to talk about its support of the university system chancellor.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The board’s lawyer last week unveiled a more than 200-page document detailing an investigation into complaints that Chancellor Hamid Shirvani and the board broke the state’s open meetings laws and violated board policy.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Claire Holloway’s investigation found no intentional violations by Shirvani, but it pointed out omissions with the minutes and agenda of one meeting. Holloway blamed the board for the mistakes and recommended that members review open meetings requirements.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Shirvani, who took over on July 1, has come under fire from some legislators, students and others for his management style. Board members have said they stand behind the chancellor.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The meeting is scheduled\u00a0this \u00a0afternoon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s House has voted down a pair resolutions aimed at sharing the state’s wealth with individuals.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The resolutions would have required an amendment to North Dakota’s Constitution to allow for direct payments to residents.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Backers of the measures say they were patterned after the Alaska Permanent Fund, which is that state’s oil savings account. Each year, all men, women and children who have lived in Alaska for at least a year get a share of the fund.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota has its own tax fund that has more than $850 million in assets.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Legacy Fund gets 30 percent of the state’s oil tax collections. None of the money can be spent until 2017, and even then it takes a two-thirds vote of the Legislature to dip into it.\u00a0\u00a0
\n\u00a0GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – The commander of the 319th Air Base Wind at the Grand Forks Air Force Base has been forced from his post after he failed to meet physical fitness standards.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The\u00a0 Base announced Wednesday that Col. Tim Bush was relieved of command of the wing. Vice Commander Col. Christopher Mann will replace Bush as an interim commander until a replacement assumes the command full-time.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A spokesman for the Air Force’s Air Mobility Command at Scott Air Force Base in Illinois says Bush has requested to retire.<\/p>\n

\u3000BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota is getting about $102,000 in a multistate settlement with Google.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Google Is paying a $7 million fine to settle an investigation into a snoopy software program. It enabled the Internet search leader to intercept emails, passwords and other sensitive information sent several years ago over unprotected wireless networks in neighborhoods across the world.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Google blamed the intrusion on a rogue engineer. The company does not admit any wrongdoing.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The agreement covers 38 states and the District of Columbia.<\/p>\n

\u3000FARGO, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota leads the nation in the production of honey for a ninth consecutive year.

\u00a0\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The person who won a $1 million Powerball prize in North Dakota has claimed the money, and wishes to remain anonymous.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The winning ticket in the March 13 drawing was sold in Wahpeton, and state lottery officials say the winner is a resident of that city. Officials say the winner has no immediate plans for the money.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Powerball is played in 42 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The jackpot for the Wednesday night drawing was at $260 million.<\/p>\n

\u3000HELENA, Mont. (AP) – A proposal to allow people to salvage roadkill for food is in the fast lane to the Montana governor’s office after the state Senate gave its initial backing.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The measure calls for law-enforcement officers to issue permits to remove the carcasses of elk, deer, antelope and moose off the state’s roadways.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 An earlier version would have allowed fur-bearing animals, upland game birds and migratory game birds to be scraped up, too.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Supporters say the measure would stop good game meat from going to waste.<\/p>\n

CHICAGO (AP) – It’s going to seem strange to watch the Chicago Bears this season and not see Brian Urlacher in the middle of the defense.\u00a0 The eight-time Pro Bowl linebacker could not come to terms on a new contract with the team, and the two sides decided to part ways after 13 seasons, according to general manager Phil Emery.\u00a0<\/p>\n

NFL-MEETINGS…

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 PHOENIX (AP) – NFL owners have passed a player safety rule barring ball carriers from using the crown of their helmets to make contact with a defender in the open field.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The owners have also voted to eliminate the tuck rule, which was one of the most criticized rules in pro football. Now, if a quarterback loses control of the ball before he has fully protected it after opting not to throw, it is a fumble.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Video review now will be allowed on plays when a coach challenges even though he is not allowed to. But the coach will be penalized or lose a timeout, depending on when he threw the challenge flag.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Current rules allow goalie pads to go 55 percent of the way between your knee and your pelvis. Mathieu Schneider, a special assistant to NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr, said players should rely on their own talents rather than equipment.

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) – While the coordinated cyberattack on South Korean banks and media companies has been traced to an IP address in China, officials say it does not fit the mold of previous Chinese attacks, which tend to be aimed at collecting intelligence and intellectual property. Many in South Korea continue to suspect North Korea, but officials say it’s too soon to point fingers.

Obama is in day two of his visit to the region and is not pushing any new plans to re-launch talks. He’ll speak later to Israeli students.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 VIENNA (AP) – Concern is growing that Iran is trying to add plutonium production to its nuclear capabilities. International diplomacy has focused on trying to prevent Iran from using enriched uranium to produce nuclear arms. Tehran hopes to have a plutonium-producing reactor up and running next year, but insists its program is peaceful.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 PARIS (AP) – Inflation may be bad for an economy but it still fits a key theory of the universe. New results from a look into the split second after the Big Bang indicate the universe is a bit older than previously thought but the core concepts seem to be on the right track. The findings bolster a key theory called inflation, which says the universe burst from subatomic size to its now-observable expanse in a fraction of a second.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
