Volunteers still helping Iowa town recover

News

July 15th, 2011 by Ric Hanson

MAPLETON, Iowa (AP) – More than three months after a tornado leveled much of Mapleton in western Iowa, volunteers are still coming to the rescue.

Sioux City television station KTIV reports that vans full of people are still pulling in to town to clean, build or paint buildings and other property damaged by the twister. No deaths were reported. The tornado was among at least 18 twisters in Iowa on April 9.

Pastor Katie Newman says her church has been working hard on recruiting and has lined up almost 200 volunteers over the next six weeks. Some are coming from across the country, including Devon Anderson. He came from Massachusetts to lend a hand.

Anderson says he’s “just helping with the tornado ’cause I felt bad and I thought we could help.”

Officials to discuss Neb. nuclear plant’s recovery

News

July 15th, 2011 by Ric Hanson

BLAIR, Neb. (AP) – Officials are starting to think about what it will take to clean up the flood damage around Fort Calhoun nuclear power plant and get it running again once the Missouri River recedes.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has scheduled a July 27 meeting with Omaha Public Power District officials to talk about Fort Calhoun’s recovery.

Much of the nuclear plant about 20 miles north of Omaha remains surrounded by floodwaters, but the plant itself remains dry inside. And Fort Calhoun will stay shut down until after the flooding eases sometime in the fall.

Regulators will meet with utility officials at Omaha’s downtown Doubletree Inn.

Council Bluffs flood fighting price tag: $5.6M and climbing daily

News

July 15th, 2011 by Ric Hanson

The water level along the flooding Missouri River in Council Bluffs is holding steady, for now, which the town’s mayor says is good news in that the fast-moving, muddy water isn’t doing any more damage. Mayor Tom Hanafan says it remains an around-the-clock battle against the high water.

 

Hanafan says, “It’s a constant 24-hour-a-day operation but with no rain right now, it’s really helped us get through some tough times and get some things done.” He says he’s overwhelmed with the response from volunteers who continue to come daily to fill sandbags, which has helped the city save a little money.

“We fill (sandbags) every day,” Hanafan says. “We count every bag, every day, because as we fill them, crews are taking them out and using them for different operations.” He says Council Bluffs has spent about five-point-six million dollars fighting flooding — after about 46 days so far. The mayor says that figure covers personnel, equipment and outside resources. Levee monitoring is ongoing and small leaks are being quickly repaired to prevent a major breach and more evacuations.
