City Of Omaha Ne

The latest on flooding: June 23

FEMA questioned: U.S. senators from Nebraska, Iowa and South Dakota questioned Federal Emergency Management Agency boss Craig Fugate on Wednesday about the federal disaster reimbursement process for costs of the Missouri River flood.

Sens. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, Ben Nelson, D-Neb., Mike Johanns, R-Neb., John Thune, R-S.D., and a representative of Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, attended the meeting. The senators told Fugate that communities along the river have spent millions on flood protection and asked whether and when federal aid might be available.

Disaster declaration requests, when submitted by governors and approved by the president, can unlock federal aid to state and local governments. Nebraska's request was approved Saturday. “The City of Omaha and other communities have spent a lot on flood prevention and could see some federal aid to ease the cost to their budgets,” Nelson said.

No effect on nuclear plants: Increased releases from Gavins Point Dam this week will not require increased flood protections at Nebraska's two nuclear plants, spokesmen said.

Mark Becker of Nebraska Public Power District and Mike Jones of the Omaha Public Power District said sufficient protections remain in place to account for the rise.

On Tuesday, the Army Corps of Engineers announced that releases from Gavins Point would increase another 7 percent to 160,000 cubic feet per second.

That will add about 4 to 5 inches in the river's level at Fort Calhoun and Cooper Nuclear Stations, according to information from the corps and the National Weather Service.

Also on Wednesday, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission issued a statement saying that it was monitoring the flooding at both plants.

“We are closely following events at both plants,” said Elmo Collins, the NRC regional administrator said. “Both plants have activated their flood response plans and taken appropriate steps to protect vital structures, systems and components from rising floodwaters and maintain their plants in a safe condition.”

The NRC has added two inspectors and a branch chief to the permanent two-person inspection crew at Fort Calhoun station, said Lara Uselding, spokeswoman. They are providing around-the-clock oversight there. Cooper continues to have its normal two-person crew of federal inspectors.

The floodwater was about 2.4 feet up the 8-foot temporary levee at Fort Calhoun.
