Valley City (VCSU) Valley City State University has achieved record spring enrollment according to its official Spring Semester 2016 census figures released Tuesday, February 9, 2016.<\/p>\n

VCSU President Tisa Mason, says,”Our spring enrollment figures are validating.

The numbers also tell us that we\u2019re doing a better job of helping students succeed at VCSU. We had our largest graduating class ever in 2015; that we\u2019re seeing record numbers now on campus indicates that more students who start here are staying here, and that\u2019s good.”<\/p>\n

She adds, “I give credit to our faculty, staff and students. Their work in creating and maintaining a quality teaching and learning environment is what keeps us strong.”<\/p>\n

WASHINGTON\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 \u00a0\u2013 Senator John Hoeven Tuesday announced that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will provide $3.9 million pursuant to a congressional appropriation to upgrade the LaMoure sanitary sewer system. The Corps included the LaMoure project in its Fiscal Year 2016 work plan, which it released today. Hoeven serves on the Energy and Water Appropriations Committee where he worked to include funding for projects like LaMoure.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe City of LaMoure has been working hard to deal with the effects of an aging sanitary sewer system, and I have been working with the Corps to match their work with a federal commitment to upgrade the entire system,\u201d Hoeven said. \u201cI\u2019m pleased that the Corps of Engineers will address the project in 2016. This project will provide a significant infrastructure upgrade that will last for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

The City of LaMoure currently uses a sanitary sewer system that uses clay pipes that date to the 1930s and 1940s. High levels of ground water along the James River often force the city to bypass the system and pump sewage directly into the environment. The year-end appropriations bill for Fiscal Year 2016 included $55 million for sewer systems and other water development infrastructure projects, a $5 million increase over the 2015 budget.\u00a0 As a member of the Energy and Water Appropriations subcommittee, the senator worked to ensure that the Corps allocate some of this money for the LaMoure sanitary sewer system.<\/p>\n

WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) – Voters in the district encompassing rural schools around Williston are deciding the fate of a proposed new facility.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Tuesday’s election is on a proposed K-8 school that would upgrade facilities that are crowded and in some cases don’t even have a gymnasium.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Williston Herald reports that if the bond measure passes, homeowners will pay an additional $103 in property taxes per $100,000 worth of home value. Farmers will pay an additional 43 cents per acre of agricultural land.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Voters in the district last year defeated a proposed K-12 school.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The district encompassing schools in Williston is working on a new high school that’s expected to be finished in the fall.

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Backers of a Red River diversion project around the flood-prone Fargo area say they’re grateful that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is officially backing a plan that would combine public and private resources to build the channel.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The corps on Tuesday included the diversion among six projects slated to begin construction this year. It will receive $5 million that Congress appropriated for 2016, although it’s not clear how that money will be used.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The diversion was previously authorized by Congress, but federal funding needs to be approved each year. Supporters were worried the arrangement could delay the project for years without a public-private partnership.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota Sens. Heidi Heitkamp and John Hoeven say Tuesday’s announcement is important, but the project still needs to satisfy worries of upstream residents.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A lignite industry official says North Dakota’s “continued prosperity” is at stake with new federal rules mandating a significant reduction in carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fueled power plants.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Lignite Energy Council President Jason Bohrer told the Legislature’s Taxation Committee on Tuesday that the state’s $4 billion coal industry is in “mortal danger” because of the new rules. Bohrer says the industry will need help by way of tax incentives and funding for research to meet the new standards.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota has seven electric power plants that are fueled by lignite, an abundant but low grade coal that is mined in the state.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 North Dakota has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency challenging the new rules that the agency says will help to combat climate change.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The University of Mary has hired former Marauders and University of North Dakota head football coach Dale Lennon as its public affairs director.<\/p>\n

Lennon will work on marketing strategies and deal with community relations in his new role, which he will begin Feb. 22.<\/p>\n

Lennon was Mary’s head football coach from 1997-99, before moving on to UND. He left Grand Forks after 2007 to become head coach of Southern Illinois. He was fired after last season.<\/p>\n

Lennon in 2001 led UND to the NCAA Division II championship and was named coach of the year by the American Football Coaches Association.<\/p>\n

\u00a0MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) – Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders are hoping to emerge from New Hampshire’s primary Tuesday with their first wins of the 2016 presidential election. The victories would boost their standing in a highly competitive race. Sanders has held an advantage over Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire for weeks. But after Tuesday, the race moves to more diverse states that are seen as more hospitable to the former secretary of state.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama says some of the federal government’s information technology systems are archaic and that “we need to upgrade them” to get serious about improving security. Obama is seeking to increase spending on cybersecurity by more than 35 percent from last year. Republicans are making clear that many of the president’s budget recommendations won’t pass Congress, but tackling the nation’s cyber vulnerabilities is a bipartisan priority.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – The Pentagon is seeking $200 million in the 2017 budget for counterterrorism operations in Libya and other portions of North and West Africa. This, as the Islamic State threat in that region continues to grow. The new funding provides the first concrete indication of what the U.S. military may do to battle the threat, including expanded drone and surveillance flights, strikes and other operations.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 LOS ANGELES (AP) – A judge is dismissing a defamation claim filed by model Janice Dickinson against a former lawyer for Bill Cosby. She filed the claim after the lawyer denied her allegations that the comedian had drugged and raped her in 1982. But the judge in Los Angeles did not dismiss defamation allegations made against Cosby in the same lawsuit.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 LOS ANGELES (AP) – Music publisher Warner\/Chappell Music will return $14 million in fees to settle a lawsuit that challenges its claim to the song “Happy Birthday.” A federal judge ruled in September that Warner\/Chappell didn’t own the lyrics and had no right to charge for their use. The Los Angeles Times says under a settlement, Warner\/Chappell will give up its claims to the song and reimburse those who paid licensing fees.
