\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Warm Pacific air blanketing the Dakotas continues to set records in the two states, with temperatures reaching into the 50s, 60s and even 70s.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 National Weather Service reports show that record-high temperatures for the date were set Tuesday in Bismarck, Dickinson and Williston in western North Dakota, and in Rapid City in western South Dakota. It reached 73 degrees at the Rapid City airport.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Rapid City and Bismarck also set record high overnight lows on Tuesday.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Forecasters say the jet stream moved to the north and allowed the warm Pacific air to flow in early this week. A lack of snow cover also is contributing to the warmth.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 But colder weather is on the way. Overnight lows this weekend could be as cold as 15 degrees below zero in northeastern North Dakota.<\/p>\n

Jamestown (CSi) Stutsman County Emergency Manager, Jerry Bergquist says, a number of changes are occurring at the Stutsman County Law Enforcement Center that the public needs to be aware of.<\/p>\n

The Jamestown Police Department has moved its downstairs Shift Commanders office upstairs to greatly improve internal work efficiencies by being closer to its overall police operation. Individuals with law enforcement business may go to the main floor lobby of the LEC Monday thru Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5 p.m. and speak to a representative of the Jamestown Police Department, Stutsman County Sheriff\u2019s Office or the ND Highway Patrol.<\/p>\n

In addition, the lower level of the LEC will be open Monday thru Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5 p.m. for individuals to access the Stutsman County Veteran\u2019s Service and Emergency Management offices. Lower level access will be limited to those offices and the meeting rooms.<\/p>\n

Because there will no longer be a law enforcement presence downstairs, beginning February 2, 2015 the lower level will be locked after regular business hours, weekends and holidays. During the “off hour” times, individuals with law enforcement business can call the Stutsman County Communications Center at 701-252-1000. A courtesy phone located at the entrance of the LEC is available to make the call. Once notified, the Dispatcher will arrange for an officer to contact the individual. As always, in an emergency, call 9-1-1.<\/p>\n

Jail operations will remain the same with normal business hours being Monday thru Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. A “call box” located in the main floor lobby will continue to be available to speak to a Correction Officer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Jamestown (CSi) A westbound semi and trailer with a load height of 17 feet 2 inches was unable to clear the 16 feet 1 inch high overpass at I-94, exit 257, at Jamestown, about 4:30-p.m., Monday.<\/p>\n

No damages reported, as the driver stopped the rig when he realized the trailer load, a large spool of wire, wouldn\u2019t clear the structure.<\/p>\n

Jamestown Police, the Stutsman County Sheriff\u2019s Office, and North Dakota Highway Patrol, assisted at the scene, while the driver back the unit to the interchange with Highway 281, and then was directed to 17th<\/sup> Street Southwest, to return to I-94.<\/p>\n

The situation delayed traffic of I-94 for about 30 minutes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Jamestown (CSi) Senate Bill 2260 sponsored by District 29 State Senator, Terry Wanzek, would appropriate $20 million to be used by the North Dakota Department of Commerce to provide grants to political subdivisions that incur high costs related to economic development projects that do not receive funds from oil impact funds.<\/p>\n

The bill outlines that political subdivisions could include schools, fire districts, counties, cities or any other government agency that levies taxes.<\/p>\n

Wanzek said the bill provides the state Department of Commerce with flexibility in how the funds are used.<\/p>\n

Wanzek says the bill stems from when, during the Legislature\u2019s interim session, Stutsman County Sheriff Chad Kaiser and Jamestown Police Chief Scott Edinger applied for grants but were denied.<\/p>\n

Cosponsors of the bill are Sen. Gary Lee, R-Casselton, Sen. Larry Robinson, D-Valley City, Rep. Mike Brandenburg, R-Edgeley, Rep. Craig Headland, R-Montpelier, and Rep. Chet Pollert, R-Carrington.<\/p>\n

The Senate Political Subdivision Committee will hold a hearing at 10 a.m. Friday in the State Capitol.<\/p>\n

Bismarck (CSi) The North Dakota Highway Patrol\u2019s Annual Report says, last year proved to be another busy year on North Dakota roadways.<\/p>\n

Troopers made 1,677 DUI arrests and 1,049 drug-related arrests. Lack of seat belt use continued to contribute to injuries and deaths. Fifty-five percent of fatal crash victims were unrestrained. Preliminary numbers show 136 people died on roadways throughout the state in 122 fatal crashes compared to 148 victims and 133 fatal crashes in 2013.<\/p>\n

Troopers issued 9,320 seat belt citations throughout the year. More than 15,000 overtime hours were worked to enhance traffic safety. Focused on education efforts, troopers gave 341 safety presentations around the state.<\/p>\n

More than 262,000 commercial motor vehicle permits were issued in 2014.<\/p>\n

Motor carrier troopers and inspectors participated in speed, right-of-way, seat belt and vehicle size and weight enforcement blitzes to enhance commercial motor vehicle safety. More than 12,500 driver-vehicle examinations were administered to identify truck drivers and vehicles that posed safety risks. Committed to protecting infrastructure, troopers assessed approximately $1.25 million in overload violation fees.<\/p>\n

In fiscal year 2014, New Entrant Program coordinators completed 263 safety audits with 27 failing. This program assesses companies that apply for USDOT numbers, with the goal of enhancing the transportation industry\u2019s safety.<\/p>\n

Motorists are encouraged to make safe, responsible driving decisions. Wearing seat belts, slowing down, choosing designated drivers, and overtaking with caution are common sense measures that will help keep North Dakota roads safe.<\/p>\n

WAHPETON, N.D. (AP) – A truck driver died when his semitrailer veered off Interstate 29 south of Wahpeton.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Highway Patrol says the semi went through a ditch, into a field and then vaulted over a drainage ditch about 12:45 p.m. Tuesday.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The 71-year-old driver from Ayr was taken to a hospital in Breckenridge, Minnesota, where he was pronounced dead. Authorities did not immediately identify him.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A 33-year-old Beulah (BYOO’-lah) woman has been charged with felony child abuse or neglect after authorities say her 3-year-old daughter was found outside by herself.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Lisa Furr is accused of leaving her child home alone on Jan. 16. Police say the girl wasn’t wearing a jacket or shoes when they found her running around outside.
\n\u00a0
\nFurr also was arrested and charged with a DUI on the same day.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 An email seeking comment was sent to her attorney early Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Federal authorities are encouraging people in North Dakota and South Dakota to watch out for quickly changing ice conditions on all reservoirs in the states.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation says winter snowpack that’s melting due to warmer than normal temperatures has increased water inflows enough to cause rapid shifts in ice conditions.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Dakotas Area Office manager David Rosenkrance says the changing water elevations and increased runoff create thin ice that makes rivers and lakes unsafe. He says the elevations change the ice conditions with no warning.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A bill is headed to Gov. Jack Dalrymple that would require North Dakota high school students to take the same test that immigrants must pass to become a U.S. citizen.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota’s Senate approved the measure Tuesday by a 43-4 vote. The proposal also sailed through the House earlier this month by an 85-1 vote.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The legislation requires students to correctly answer 60 percent of the 100 questions on the U.S. citizenship test to graduate high school or earn a GED diploma starting in the 2016-2017 school year. Students must achieve a 70-percent passing grade in subsequent years.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 First lady Betsy Dalrymple has been a big supporter of the bill and co-chaired a committee to make it state law.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota lawmakers are considering legislation that would allow concealed-carry permit holders to pack guns at schools, if officials allow it.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Education officials told the House Education Committee Tuesday that they are opposed to the measure. They say teachers should not take on the role of law enforcement.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The proposal would require someone who wants to carry a gun in school to undergo training with local law enforcement.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A similar measure that would allow teachers and other school officials to carry guns at school failed two years ago in the Legislature.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Republican Rep. Dwight Kiefert of Valley City<\/strong> says the bill is especially aimed at rural schools where it may take law enforcement a long time to respond. He says just passing the law also would serve as a deterrent.
\n\u00a0<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The North Dakota Legislature is considering more measures than two years ago.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Data show 852 bills have been filed. The House filed 474 bills and 378 were filed by the Senate.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Senate’s deadline to file bills was Monday. The House’s deadline was earlier this month.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Lawmakers considered 842 bills two years ago during the 63rd legislative session.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A Minnesota man accused of running an illegal gambling operation in North Dakota has pleaded guilty. Sixty-nine-year-old Gerald Greenfield, of Bloomington, Minnesota, pleaded guilty to interstate transmittal of wagering information and conspiracy to commit money laundering. Federal prosecutors say Greenfield took approximately $10 million each year in wagers and discussed receiving “several million dollars” from gamblers in Fargo. Greenfield allegedly ran the gambling operation for four years and made an annual profit of between $500,000 and $600,000.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A federal judge says a lawsuit against a major oil company doing business in the North Dakota oil patch can move forward.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Judge Ralph Erickson’s ruling grants conditional class action status to the suit filed by a former employee of Schlumberger (schlum-ber-ZHAY’), which provides technology and other support services for the oil and gas industry.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The suit alleges that employees worked more than eight hours a day and 40 hours a week, and that the company used a fluctuating work week to avoid paying overtime.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Erickson says the class should be limited to employees working at the Williston site. It’s not clear how many workers would be covered in the suit.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Attorneys for the two sides did not immediately respond to request for comment.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Hess Corp. plans to reduce its spending in the Bakken oil patch by 18 percent this year over last.<\/p>\n

President and CEO Greg Hill says the company plans to spend $1.8 billion in the Bakken, down from $2.2 billion in 2014. He says Hess also will have fewer drilling rigs and will complete fewer operating wells.<\/p>\n

Hess spokesman John Roper says steep drops in oil prices are playing a big role in the decision. But he says new technology is another reason. Hess expects to drill almost as many wells as it did last year while running only half of the drilling rigs.<\/p>\n

Hill says Hess feels confident its leases in the Bakken can be profitable this year. And he says as oil prices recover, activity and production will increase.<\/p>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

\u00a0BOSTON (AP) – The airplanes are beginning to fly, mass transit is beginning to move and travel bans are lifted across the Northeast a day after a blizzard slammed the area with heavy snow and hurricane force winds. Bitter cold remains a complicating factor in efforts to clear clogged streets and restore power to thousands of customers. But some areas were spared, despite the dire predictions, leaving forecasters apologizing and politicians defending a near-total shutdown on travel.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – The Federal Reserve ends its latest policy meeting today and the statement is expected to be a continuing message of patience about when to raise interest rates from record lows. The U.S. economy has steadily improved. Yet inflation has dipped further below the Fed’s target rate. So most economists foresee no rate hike until June at the earliest.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 AMMAN, Jordan (AP) – There’s no mention of a Japanese hostage in a statement from Jordan today on the country’s willingness to swap an Iraqi woman sentenced to death for terrorism for a Jordanian pilot captured in December by the Islamic State group. A purported message Tuesday from the extremists threatened to kill both the Japanese hostage and the pilot within 24 hours.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) – The attack on a Tripoli luxury hotel that killed 10 people, including an American and four Europeans, is revenge for the death of a militant leader, according to the Libyan affiliate of the Islamic State group claiming responsibility. The group says it was avenging the death of Abu Anas al-Libi, who was snatched from a Tripoli street and died in U.S. custody.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 VATICAN CITY (AP) – Pope Francis has a message for fathers today: Be strong and spend time with the kids. Francis warns today that many problems adolescents run into can be traced to “absentee fathers” who are physically at home but don’t take time to actually be with their kids. The pope says the absence of a paternal figure can essentially render young people “orphans at home.”
