Our state’s story adds chapters
North Dakota now has a memoir from George Sinner, the state’s 29th governor. Publishing and film projects in recent years have added greatly to capturing the state’s history in ways that people, now and in the future, can use and enjoy. It adds to our understanding events that define North Dakota’s character and image.

Help takes many forms in facing flooding
Everyone wants to help. But not everyone can, or is comfortable, filling sandbags. Each of us must find ways to make a difference, and many have. Some people are boarding pets for others evacuated from their homes. People offered to make and deliver meals for volunteers. Still others were providing child care for parents who needed to fill sandbags. Restaurants furnished food for sandbagging operations. Other businesses could give their workers time off to fill sandbags and help provide flood protection.

Searching for the right level of angst
With the increased level of the Missouri River pushing Bismarck-Mandan into the unknown, the community struggles to know whether to carry on with events like the big McQuade softball tournament or the Mandan Fourth of July events. After all, whole neighborhoods remain at risk of flooding.

Drop the ‘Fighting Sioux’ name, logo
Robert Kelley, University of North Dakota president, said recently it’s time for the school to drop the Fighting Sioux nickname and logo. He is right.

Other views: N.D. should benefit from EPA study on fracking
Well-drilling and natural gas production in Pennsylvania isn’t the same as operations in the North Dakota oil patch. Wells drilled here are significantly deeper. One of the fears has been that a proposed U.S. Environmental Protection Agency study of fracking would focus on lower-depth wells in Pennsylvania, and the result would be rules and regulations that do not take North Dakota well depth into consideration.

Other views: Officials need to be ready for when river is ‘normal’
When the Missouri River returns to “normal,” it will be well into the second half of the construction season and people with flood damage will have a new challenge. They will no longer be racing to build flood protection before the river crests, but they will be pushed by winter’s too-quick approach.

Other views: Keep the public in the loop with information
Information, and lots of it, helped Bismarck-Mandan with the unruly Missouri River this spring. There were regular televised flood updates, intense Facebook traffic, constant tweets, Web links, broadcasts and heavy newspaper coverage all matching the releases from Garrison Dam at every foot-per-second increase in flow. Record river levels created record flows of information. People wanted — needed — to know.

Other views: Oil-in-water response is necessary in N.D.
North Dakota has been successfully dodging bullets when it comes to the risk of pipeline ruptures and oil spills in, or near, its lakes and rivers. There have been spills, as there always will be, but none of them have been major or caused significant environmental damage in the waters of the Little Missouri or Missouri rivers or Lake Sakakawea.

The buck stops with the corps
The leadership of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers refuses to take responsibility for the agency’s actions, or inactions, related to massive flooding on the Missouri River in May, June and now July. The corps, rather, puts responsibility on a “perfect storm” of natural events that converged to upend life in communities up and down the river.

Let’s not forget Buffalo Commons
Whatever happened to the Buffalo Commons? North Dakotans obsessed about it for two decades. It symbolized the movement of people from rural areas to the state’s larger communities and the state’s declining population. And then the phrase disappeared from coffee shop and bar talk. They quit having symposiums about it.

Beautiful and brutal in the Badlands
Highway 22 climbs out of the Little Missouri River valley at a steep grade and hugs the shoulders of a serious Badlands formation made up of sand, seams of lignite and, most importantly, clay. In a few short miles, the highway winds its way upward on typical Badlands geological formations until it reaches the rolling prairie above. It’s scenic. It’s a nasty road in bad weather.

N.D. needs to ask itself some tough questions
North Dakotans are caught between understanding the need to reduce federal spending and being on the receiving end of help from Washington for flood protection, farm payments and special projects. State taxpayer discomfort accepting federal help peaks as we acknowledge state government, before the Legislature met earlier this year, was floating on a $1 billion surplus.

Bakken continues to build momentum
North Dakota will set a crude oil production record in 2011, if the present trend holds. This is after a rough winter and a tough spring, in which worse-than-normal weather conditions hampered work on rigs and restricted traffic on roads in the oil patch. The state’s workers and economy have benefited mightily from the oil production.
