Jamestown, (CSi)\u00a0 Today\u00a0 (Monday, May 12,\u00a0 2014) releases from the Jamestown and Pipestem dams will\u00a0be adjusted due to recent rainfall amounts in the James River Basin.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pipestem Dam Manager Bob Martin,\u00a0with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, says the release from Pipestem Dam will be\u00a0cut to 5\u00a0cfs, and\u00a0releases from Jamestown Dam will increase to 445 cfs, for a combined release of 450 cfs.<\/p>\n

Before Monday,\u00a0releases from Pipestem Dam are at 50 cfs with 400 cfs from Jamestown Dam.<\/p>\n

Martin said officials are attempting to have Jamestown Dam at its conservation pool, or normal level, of 1,431 feet mean sea level by June 1, 2014.<\/p>\n

The water level atJamestown Dam was at 1,433.7 feet msl as of 1 p.m. Friday.<\/p>\n

The water level\u00a0at Pipestem Dam\u00a0was at 1,457.7 feet and is rising about 4 inches per day.<\/p>\n

The releases at Jamestown Dam have remained steady for much of the past week with outflows roughly matching inflows.<\/p>\n

When\u00a0Jamestown Dam reaches conservation pool, releases will decrease\u00a0there and increase at Pipestem Dam.<\/p>\n

Martin says release plans are based on average rainfall.<\/p>\n

Any heavy rainfall may require increased releases to reach the target reservoir levels.<\/p>\n

(CSi) The Bloom Township Board of Supervisors has denied a zoning permit needed by the city of Jamestown for landfill expansion. The planned expansion is adjacent to the current location.<\/p>\n

Bloom Township Chairman Roy Werner, voted in favor of the zoning permit while Township Supervisors Duane Haskin and Jim Bredahl voted in opposition.<\/p>\n

Those voting against awarding the permit wanted more information on the road used to bring garbage from the garbage bailer to the landfill.<\/p>\n

Residents near the road said traffic to and from the current landfill caused excessive dust.<\/p>\n

If the township approves the zoning permit, the city of Jamestown would then need to seek approval from the North Dakota Health Department for a landfill permit<\/p>\n

\u00a0DETROIT (AP) – Eduardo Nunez hit a tiebreaking single in the eighth inning as the Minnesota Twins rallied for a 4-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers yesterday. The Twins took advantage of poor defense by the Tigers in the late innings. Minnesota scored three runs in the eighth to spoil another fine start by Detroit rookie Robbie Ray.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Minnesota Twins manager Ron Gardenhire was ejected from yesterday’s game against the Detroit Tigers for arguing a call near second base. Detroit’s Andrew Romine hit a grounder toward the shortstop that looked like a potential double play. But the ball hit Austin Jackson. Umpires called Jackson out, made Victor Martinez stay on third and awarded Romine first. Gardenhire apparently wanted the umpires to award a double play.
