Browns Valley, Minn., starting work on floodway

A small town along the South Dakota-Minnesota border is embarking on a flood-control plan that’s some 80 years in the making. Flood waters last hit Browns Valley, Minn., in March 2007, when melting snow and ice jams caused the Little Minnesota River to overflow its banks and water swept through the town of about 800 people.
