Fish kill reported in Crawford County

Ag/Outdoor, News

September 20th, 2013 by Ric Hanson

The Iowa Department of Natural Resources says DNR Conservation Officer Dan Pauley reported a fish kill in a creek near Westside in Crawford County to the DNR Environmental Services Field Office in Atlantic on Thursday, Sept. 19th.

Holly Vandemark responded Thursday afternoon and observed dead chubs and minnows and a few larger fish in the East Boyer River for a mile downstream, possibly originating between the FAC Farmers Co-op Elevator and the city wastewater lagoon. The fish appeared to have been dead for some time.

Water samples from the kill area and downstream revealed only the slightest elevation in ammonia, nitrate and dissolved oxygen. Live fish and aquatic wildlife were observed in the sampling areas. There may be several contributing factors to the fish kill and the DNR will continue to investigate.

Report fish kills and spills to the state’s 24-hour spill line at 515-281-8694.

Sen. Grassley says he’ll seek re-election in 2016

News

September 20th, 2013 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley says he’ll seek a seventh term in 2016.  Speaking Friday during a taping of the public television program “Iowa Press,” Grassley said in response to a question that he’s planning to seek re-election.  After the taping, Grassley told The Des Moines Register he decided a couple months ago to run for re-election after longtime Democratic Sen. Tom Harkin opted to retire.

Grassley, a Republican from New Hartford, says if both senators retired, Iowa would be hurt by a lack of seniority. Grassley was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 1980. He’d previously served three terms in the U.S. House. He was first elected to the Iowa Legislature in 1958.

Grassley celebrated his 80th birthday Tuesday.
