Valley City\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 Valley City officials met Monday morning (Oct 28, 2019) for discussions on the river watch in the city.<\/p>\n

City Administrator David Schelkoph says, discussion items included:<\/p>\n

On the topic of opening Viking Drive, the city will look at the river flood stage Tuesday, but if the river is below 13.9 feet the Public Works will schedule the removal of the flood wall on Viking Drive, this week.\u00a0 Maybe as early as Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The Corps reduced the flow from the river starting late Sunday.\u00a0 The river will be at 13.5 starting Monday and will stay there for some time.\u00a0 City storm sewer pumps are still in place and monitored by crews 24\/7.\u00a0 This will continue until the river gets below 12 feet above flood stage.<\/p>\n

Schelkoph says it looks \u00a0like at least a week of 13+ feet above flood stage.\u00a0 Water levels in upper watershed is still high but constant.\u00a0 Baldhill Creek is still coming down 807 cfs.<\/p>\n

On the water pumps throughout the city,\u00a0 he says, at 13+ feet the city needs to monitor the 20+ pumps.\u00a0 The City will monitor the river gauge over the next two weeks and start to remove the temporary pumps when the openings into the river begin to clear.\u00a0 This could take as long as 2-3 weeks.<\/p>\n

If significant rains happens the city could easily reverse the current status.<\/p>\n

Schelkoph recommends before those actions take place, to:<\/p>\n

Make sure the lake level is back to normal and he river level is under 12 feet above flood stage.<\/p>\n

When these two things happen he recommends to the City Commission \u00a0inform Barnes County and North Dakota to know the city is \u00a0no longer facing an emergency.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Jamestown\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 The City of Jamestown is notifying residents that a public information meeting will be held at the Jamestown Civic Center, in the Exchequer Room, 212 3rd<\/sup> Ave NE, Jamestown, ND, on Tuesday, October 29, 2019, at 5:30 PM, <\/strong>concerning water releases \u00a0from Jamestown and Pipestem Dams.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Valley City\u00a0 (VCSU)\u00a0 Valley City State University is partnering with the Valley City High School junior class to collect donations for \u201cOperation; End Hunger,\u201d Oct. 29 – Nov. 14.<\/p>\n

This annual event is organized by Valley City Public Schools and each year grades 7-12 compete to fill a truck with nonperishable and monetary donations, which are then donated to the Barnes County Food Pantry.<\/p>\n

VCSU students, staff, and faculty are invited to donate items at designated drop-off locations around campus. Students will also be asked to bring a donation item for admission to the Halloween Dance this week.<\/p>\n

The junior class goal is 1,500 items with an overall school goal of 4,000 items to be donated to the food pantry.<\/p>\n

Jamestown\u00a0 (uj.edu)\u00a0 University of Jamestown students will be going door to door in Jamestown Tuesday evening between 6-p.m., and 9-p.m., collecting non-perishable food donations, with the annual University of Jamestown Trick-or-Can.<\/p>\n

A friendly competition is between \u00a0student groups to see which one collects the most food donations for \u00a0local food pantries.<\/p>\n

Donations can also be left outside at the door.<\/p>\n

Jamestown\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 The All Vets Club in Jamestown will host a Veterans and Family PTSD Information Fair on Monday November 4 from 2-p.m., to 6-p.m.<\/p>\n

Bismarck\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 The State Water Commission has announced the upcoming release of its online flood map data viewer, North Dakota Risk Assessment Mapservice (NDRAM).<\/p>\n

NDRAM, a tool designed by the Water Commission and located on the agency\u2019s MapServices, provides a user-friendly format that combines new federal data along with the agency\u2019s existing IT and GIS capabilities.<\/p>\n

NDRAM is a collaborative effort with FEMA that utilizes the Water Commission\u2019s existing robust technology and infrastructure. In 2018, FEMA completed a Base Level Engineering (BLE) effort for every county in North Dakota \u2013 the first state to do so. The BLE dataset is a quality flood risk assessment that can be enhanced to create engineering models and other flood hazard data.<\/p>\n

NDRAM allows users to zoom in and visually display current flood risks, both approximate floodplains from BLE and effective regulatory floodplains from FEMA\u2019s NFIP.\u00a0 This new tool also provides users water surface elevations, flood depths, and the ability to download engineering model data and print customized maps.\u00a0 Another exciting feature of the tool includes real-time weather warning displays across the state, making it especially useful for planning, mitigation, and disaster recovery actions.<\/p>\n

State Engineer Garland Erbele, says, \u201cThis innovative map viewer is an incredible asset for residents, emergency managers, and community leaders seeking flood risk information. Adding, \u201cNDRAM offers an invaluable service that will help generate informed decisions regarding flood preparedness and will increase public awareness.\u201d<\/p>\n

Demonstrations of the viewer will be provided by Water Commission staff at the agency\u2019s booth on Wednesday, October 30 at the Main Street Initiative Summit at the Bismarck Event Center.<\/p>\n

Please follow the link for more information and to access the viewer: https:\/\/ndram.swc.nd.gov<\/a>.<\/p>\n

WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Police say a Williston woman accused of trying to exact revenge by setting a fire to a mobile home targeted the wrong house.<\/p>\n

Authorities say 26-year-old Kassandra Cote thought she was setting fire to the home of someone who had stolen items from a storage unit. Cote’s accused of placing a two-liter bottle of gas outside the home and igniting it Sept. 21.<\/p>\n

KFYR-TV reports the fire damaged skirting and plastic trim. The couple who live in the home with their child were not injured.<\/p>\n

Cote is charged with endangering by fire and arson. She’s being held on $50,000 bond.<\/p>\n

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) \u2014 Flooding along the Missouri River has stretched on for seven months in places and could endure through the winter, leaving some Upper Midwest farmland and possibly some homes encased in ice.<\/p>\n

There are several reasons for the flooding, including high levels along the river, saturated ground and broken levees. And with forecasters predicting a wetter-than-normal winter, it’s possible flooding could continue in some places all the way until spring, when the normal flood season begins.<\/p>\n

“There’s no end in sight. None at all,” said Tom Bullock, who hasn’t been able to live in his northwestern Missouri home since March because floodwaters cut off access to it.<\/p>\n

In Missouri’s Holt County, where Bullock serves as emergency management director, roughly 30,000 acres (12,140 hectares) of the 95,000 acres (38,445 hectares) that flooded last spring remain underwater, and at least some of that floodwater is likely to freeze in place this winter.<\/p>\n

Similar conditions exist in places along the lower Missouri River, where broken levees will likely take several years to repair.<\/p>\n

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) \u2014 Authorities say a 36-year-old northern Minnesota man died when he ran into his burning house to get his dogs<\/p>\n

The Star Tribune reports authorities were called to the home in the small town of Shevlin early Thursday night.<\/p>\n

They found the body of Michael William Norgaard inside the burning home.<\/p>\n

A preliminary investigation indicated that Norgaard arrived home to find the house full of smoke and called his sister, whom he asked to call 911, saying he was running inside to get his dogs out.<\/p>\n

No foul play is suspected, but authorities say the state fire marshal will investigate and a University of North Dakota forensic pathologist will conduct an autopsy.<\/p>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

GREENVILLE, Texas (AP) \u2014 Authorities are releasing the identities of the two men who were killed when a gunman opened fire at an off-campus college party in Texas.<\/p>\n

The Hunt County Sheriff’s Office said Monday that the two men killed were 23-year-old Kevin Berry Jr. of Dallas and 23-year-old Byron Craven Jr. of Arlington.<\/p>\n

The suspected gunman, who hasn’t been identified, remains on the loose after the shooting around midnight Saturday. Authorities believe the shooter may have been targeting just one person at the party of about 750 people outside Greenville, 15 miles (24 kilometers) southwest of a satellite campus of the Texas A&M University System.<\/p>\n

Authorities said the gathering was a Halloween and homecoming party for Texas A&M University-Commerce, though officials said it was not a school-sanctioned event.<\/p>\n

Authorities said that of the 12 people injured, six were shot and six were trampled or hurt by glass.<\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 A crowd of protesters numbering well into the thousands has gathered outside Trump Hotel and Tower in Chicago.<\/p>\n

Kept across the Chicago River by police, they shouted slogans like “lock him up” and “Trump must go.”<\/p>\n

One after another they said they came to the protest – some from hours away – because they are feeling a fear for the country they have never felt before.<\/p>\n

“It will take decades to put things back in place,” said Caroline Mooney, a 61-year-old marketing analyst from the Chicago suburb of Tinley Park.<\/p>\n

Her friend, Steve Schaibley said, “If something doesn’t happen next November, we may not recover.” They drove over two hours from Livingston county.<\/p>\n

The gathering was, by and large peaceful, perhaps because there were very few trump supporters to argue with of shout at. But two people were taken into custody after apparently attacking a man waiving a Trump flag. The man was bloody but did not appear to be seriously injured.<\/p>\n

Update…<\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff says President Donald Trump’s administration is “building a powerful case” for impeachment as a former White House national security adviser defied a subpoena on Monday.<\/p>\n

Charles Kupperman failed to show up for a scheduled deposition Monday after asking a federal court in Washington for guidance on whether he was legally required to do so.<\/p>\n

Schiff, who is leading the impeachment probe, says Kupperman’s suit has “no basis in law” and speculated that the White House didn’t want him to testify because his testimony could be incriminating. Democrats are investigating Trump’s overtures to the Ukrainian government to pursue politically motivated investigations.<\/p>\n

Schiff says the three committees leading the inquiry will “move forward” even if witnesses don’t appear.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

SANTA ROSA, California (AP) \u2014 Pacific Gas & Electric says it failed to notify 23,000 customers, including 500 with medical conditions, before shutting off their power to prevent wildfires earlier this month.<\/p>\n

In a report filed with regulators Monday, California’s largest utility didn’t say where the affected customers live or if there were any reported medical complications.<\/p>\n

PG&E says some customers had no contact information on file. Others were incorrectly thought to be getting electricity from power lines that weren’t turned off.<\/p>\n

The outages Oct. 9-12 affected 636,000 homes, 81,000 businesses and 11,000 other customers in the first of a series of mass outages to prevent wildfires caused by electrical equipment.<\/p>\n

Millions faced blackouts this weekend while fires are raging on both ends of California, and more shutoffs are expected in the coming days.<\/p>\n

PG&E didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment Monday.<\/p>\n
