Bismarck (CSi) The North Dakota Aeronautics Commission recently completed a research project to estimate the annual economic impacts that all facets of aviation have on North Dakota\u2019s economy. The Commission\u2019s research concludes that the annual economic impact from the State\u2019s 89 Public-Use Airports has increased 47 Percent Since 2010. This project was funded in part by a grant from the Federal Aviation Administration.<\/p>\n

The study shows in 2015 Jamestown Regional Airport had annual commercial visitors of 3,542. The total of visitors spending is $1.40 million. Spending per trip is $400.<\/p>\n

North Dakota\u2019s public-use airport system consists of eight commercial service airports and 81 general aviation airports. The study measured jobs, annual payroll, and annual output. Output represents the purchase of goods and services within North Dakota. These economic impacts were measured for activities associated with airport management, on-airport aviation related businesses, capital investment, and spending by visitors to North Dakota who utilize the public-use airports.<\/p>\n

State Aeronautics Commission, Executive Director, Kyle Wanner says, “Since the economic benefits of the public-use airports were last measured in 2010, these benefits have grown significantly. The total number of jobs that the airports support has risen from 8,872 to 12,217; annual payroll for these jobs has grown from $366 million to over $505 million; and estimated annual output has increased from $1.06 billion to almost $1.6 billion. The numbers from this study clearly show that our public airports have proven that they are valuable assets and act as important economic engines for our communities.”<\/p>\n

The Commission\u2019s research also considered the economic impacts from other facets of aviation in North Dakota. This included the annual economic impacts associated with Air Force Bases in Minot and Grand Forks; North Dakota businesses that are engaged in producing aviation and aerospace products; and benefits that employers throughout the state gain from using commercial airline, general aviation, or air cargo services. These other aviation and aerospace related activities provide an additional $2.1 billion in annual economic output and support approximately 20,000 additional jobs that have an annual payroll estimated at $931 million.<\/p>\n

When the almost $1.6 billion in annual output from the public-use airports is combined with the output from other aviation and aerospace related activities, all airport, aviation, and aerospace related activities have a total estimated annual economic output of $3.66 billion. This output represents approximately eight percent of North Dakota\u2019s Real Gross State Product. Airports and aviation are major drivers and contributors to North Dakota\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n

The North Dakota Aeronautics Commission is responsible for overseeing the state\u2019s public-use airport system. Funding from the Commission helps to insure that North Dakota communities are served by a diversified and well developed airport system. Information from the Commission\u2019s research project helps to determine economic return from their investment. More information on the study is available from the Aeronautics Commission website at\u00a0 www.aero.nd.gov<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jamestown (CSi) The Jamestown City Planning Commission has unanimously approved an amendment to the city’s ordinance to require a traffic study for any development that would increase vehicle traffic in the area by more than 1,000 cars per day.<\/p>\n

The regulations would apply within Jamestown and its 1-mile extraterritorial jurisdiction around the city.<\/p>\n

The amendment now moves to the Jamestown City Council for consideration.<\/p>\n

The need for a traffic study would be determined by the size and type of development.<\/p>\n

The documents with the proposed ordinance included about 20 different types of property developments and the estimated number of vehicle trips each would generate.<\/p>\n

The information from the traffic study would be used to determine if additional traffic signals or street lanes would be needed. The amendment does not address how transportation improvements would be financed<\/p>\n

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Authorities have charged a man accused in the shooting death of an Enderlin man.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Court documents filed Monday accuse 28-year-old Paul Miller of felony murder and reckless endangerment in the death of Billy Holladay. The shooting happened early Sunday in Enderlin.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Fargo Deputy Police Chief Joe Anderson says Miller eventually turned himself into relatives. He was taken into custody by agents from state Bureau of Criminal Investigation and booked into the Cass County Jail.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities say Holladay was found dead when first responders arrived at around 2:30 a.m. Sunday. Ransom County Sheriff Darren Benneweis says he believes anywhere from three to seven shots were fired.<\/p>\n

Sheriff Darren Benneweis reports that the suspect vehicle and a weapon were recovered at a rural Barnes County Resience with assistance from the Barns County Sheriff\u2019s Office and NDBCI.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Miller’s first court appearance is scheduled Wednesday afternoon. His attorney, Cash Aaland, declined to comment.<\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Fire caused an estimated $100,000 in damage to a commercial kitchen in Fargo.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Firefighters responded to Square One Kitchens about 10:45 p.m. Monday. Battalion Chief Dane Carley says no one was in the building at the time, and no one was hurt.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The fire was quickly put out, but there was heavy smoke in the building.
\n\u00a0

KILLDEER, N.D. (AP) – An explosion and fire at an oil and gas facility north of Killdeer over the weekend sent one person to the hospital.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Dunn County Emergency Manager Denise Brew\u00a0 says a welder was working on a tank that had not been properly cleaned out, and fumes exploded.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The welder was not seriously hurt in the Sunday incident at the Environmental Driven Solutions and Renewable Resources facility. The site recycles used oil and treats contaminated soil so it can be used again.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 West Dunn Fire Rescue Chief Jamie Reis says 20 firefighters responded and dumped about 30,000 gallons of water on the fire.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A man shot by Bismarck police allegedly tried to escape from his hospital room.<\/p>\n

Travis Clark is in custody on outstanding warrants while he’s hospitalized recovering from gunshot wounds he suffered Jan. 31 after allegedly disobeying orders from an officer and reaching for what officers believed was a weapon.<\/p>\n

Police say Clark was unshackled on Sunday so he could use the bathroom, and he allegedly assaulted a 63-year-old private security officer, bit through his IV tube and ran from the hospital and into a vehicle. He later left the vehicle without incident and was returned to custody.<\/p>\n

Clark has not been charged in either the police shooting or the alleged hospital escape attempt. Court documents don’t list an attorney for him on the outstanding warrants.<\/p>\n

\u00a0MINOT, N.D. (AP) – A 45-year-old Minot man plans to go to trial on accusations he punched a woman in the face and threatened her with a gun last September.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Minot Daily News reports (bit.ly\/1X8bLRn) that Paul Alan Petersen is charged with terrorizing, a Class C felony that carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison. He has pleaded not guilty.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The woman told police the altercation occurred after Petersen locked her out of a Minot residence. Petersen allegedly brandished a handgun after the woman called 911.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 No trial date has yet been set.<\/p>\n

MINOT, N.D. (AP) – A judge has set bond at $250,000 for a Dunseith man accused of breaking into a Minot home and robbing two elderly women at knifepoint.<\/p>\n

\u00a032-year-old Collin Decoteau made his initial court appearance Monday. He spoke little and didn’t enter a plea.<\/p>\n

Decoteau is accused of forcing his way into a home Friday, tying up an 83-year-old woman and her 62-year-old daughter and threatening them, and stealing jewelry and cash. The women got loose after he left and called for help. Decoteau was later arrested in the Surrey area.<\/p>\n

Decoteau faces several charges including terrorizing and could face nearly 40 years if he’s convicted on all counts. Court documents do not list an attorney for him. He’s due back in court March 17.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Ballot language has been approved for a referendum that would block a new law that relaxes North Dakota’s Depression-era ban against corporate farming.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Secretary of State Al Jaeger announced Monday that the ballot language was drafted and approved.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The North Dakota Farmers Union is leading the campaign to overturn the Legislature’s decision last year to exempt pork and dairy operations from the state’s anti-corporate farming law.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Supporters say the legislation is intended to revitalize dairy and swine farms after years of decline, and help fuel other agriculture business such as feed and fertilizer.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Jaeger says it is the only statewide measure that will appear on the ballot in the June 14 election.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The North Dakota Department of Transportation says law enforcement officers in the state issued 764 citations for seat belt and child restraint violations in January.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The extra traffic safety patrols were part of a Click It Or Ticket seat belt enforcement effort during the month that included more than 40 local agencies and the North Dakota Highway Patrol.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Officers issued nearly 2,100 citations, with 727 for failure to use a proper safety restraint, 37 for child restraint violations and 722 for speeding.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The traffic stops also resulted in five felony violations, 18 drug arrests, four DUIs and four citations for distracted driving.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Funding for the additional traffic safety enforcement was provided by federal grant money distributed through the DOT.<\/p>\n

GRAND FORKS\u00a0 (AP)\u00a0 The University of North Dakota’s Energy and Environmental Research Center is part of an $80 million federal Energy Department project to determine if deep crystalline rock is suitable for nuclear waste disposal.<\/p>\n

UND researchers say the project wouldn’t involve actual nuclear waste, and that test holes planned near Rugby eventually would be plugged.<\/p>\n

The Pierce County Commission has placed a moratorium on deep bore hole drilling in the county and scheduled a Feb. 16 public meeting to discuss the project. Project opponents in the meantime are collecting petition signatures.<\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – The U.S. Department of Agriculture will be sending surveys to some 3,200 farmers in North Dakota to determine their plans for the upcoming growing season. The USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service conducts its March Agricultural Survey to provide the first survey-based estimates of North Dakota producers’ planting intentions for the year.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A program aimed at helping North Dakota communities deal with the effects of rapid energy development will have far less money than originally forecast due to slumping oil activity. New data show the funding expected to come in to the Oil and Gas Impact Grant Fund for the two-year budget cycle is $28.6 million. The North Dakota Department of Trust Lands estimated $65.6 million would be available.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Wildlife officials are using poison to kill all the fish at the Raleigh Reservoir to remove an overabundance of northern pike.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The state Game and Fish Department says the “chemical renovation” will begin Wednesday at the reservoir in Grant County.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Officials say northern pike have taken over the reservoir since they were first discovered there in 2009.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Officials say the poison should dissipate by the time ice on the lake has melted. The lake will then be stocked with yellow perch, bluegill, walleye and largemouth bass.<\/p>\n

SUPERBOWL FOLLOWUP…<\/p>\n

\u00a0NEW YORK (AP) -Sunday’s Super Bowl drew an average of 111.9 million viewers for Denver’s victory over Carolina.\u00a0 That was lower than the past two years.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The rating makes Sunday’s game the third most-watched event in U.S. television history, according to the Nielsen company. Last year’s down-to-the-wire contest between New England and Seattle keeps the record with 114.4 million viewers.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In other Super Bowl nuggets:
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 – Twitter said that there were 16.9 million tweets about the game, sharply down from last year’s 25.1 million. Facebook reported that there were 200 million posts, comments or “likes,” down from 265 million last year.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 – Meanwhile in Nevada, Super Bowl fans bet a record $132.5 million at Nevada sportsbooks on the 50th version of the game. The Nevada Gaming Control Board says its preliminary estimate that Nevada’s 194 sports books kept about 10.1 percent of the wagers, for a total win of $13.3 million.
\n\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0And in case you were wondering: No, Anheuser-Busch didn’t pay Peyton Manning to say he’d be drinking a lot of Budweiser after winning the Super Bowl. The company’s verified Twitter account said, “We didn’t know the shout-out was coming either, but we’re glad it did.”<\/p>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

\u00a0 MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) – The first few voters cast ballots just after midnight today in the New Hampshire primary with polls already starting to open in the rest of the state. Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Bernie Sanders, who began as somewhat unexpected candidates but emerged to front runner status, hope to emerge as winners in the first 2016 presidential primary. Analysts say victories would lend to their viability.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 BAD AIBLING, Germany (AP) – Officials in southern Germany say some of the people injured in a head-on train collision had to be cut out of the wreckage and transported across a river to waiting ambulances. The two commuter trains crashed this morning in a remote area, killing at least nine people and injuring some 150. Officials say investigations will begin when the final body is removed.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 LEMITAR, N.M. (AP) – A roll-over crash in central New Mexico has killed a young mother and her toddler in addition to two other people. State Police say the crash happened yesterday afternoon on a frontage road along Interstate 25 near Lemitar, which is 75 miles south of Albuquerque. Police say the vehicle was carrying seven people and traveling “at a high rate of speed” when it went out of control.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 LONDOND (AP) – British lawmakers responsible for the country’s intelligence agencies are turning thumbs down on the current draft of a bill to strengthen the government’s powers to spy on the Internet. Parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee says the Investigatory Powers Bill does not contain enough privacy safeguards and takes a “piecemeal” approach, treating privacy like an add-on.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 NEW ORLEANS (AP) – It’s a busy Tuesday what with winter weather, the New Hampshire primary and President Barack Obama’s final budget submission to Congress. But to a lot of people, the real deal is in New Orleans today where the Fat Tuesday party has drawn thousands of people. The culmination of the Mardi Gras season just ahead of lent includes elaborate floats, eccentric costumes, marching bands, beads and booze.
