Hey RiverBill,
Today (Saturday) we took this picture. Can you make it out? You can see the base. Where is she? Is it just the snow? Or maybe... like the rest of us, she's so sick of the cold and snow she may now be know as Our Lady of the Ocean somewhere in Florida?
A tan might look good on her! Maybe she'll return with warmer weather. SOON we hope!

The Missouri River Is Underutilized........
According to the North Dakota State Water Commission, over 54 billion gallons of water was drawn form the Missouri River, and Lake Sakakawea during 2013. The majority of the usage permits were for drinking water, generating power, and manufacturing.
There is some concern that too much water is already drawn from the Missouri River. Terry Fleck, of the Burleigh County Water Resource District Board, believes that the Missouri River is an underutilized resource.
Fleck says that more water evaporates from Lake Sakakawea during the summer than is used for fracking for oil and gas. He added that the Missouri River is the greatest resource North Dakota has, and that people are now aware how little water the state uses........

Shippers Concerned About Ice On The Lakes........
The Great Lakes shipping industry is concerned with the possibility of the ice cover causing another challenging spring. Glen Nekvasil, vice president of the Lake Carriers' Association, says that this winter has been very harsh, and if it continues, resuming navigation in March will be a challenge.
The heavy ice that halted shipping on the Great Lakes last winter ended up costing the economy over $700 million and almost 4,000 jobs. As a result, the Lake Carriers' Association has called for the construction of another heavy icebreaker to assist the U.S. Coast Guard's Mackinaw in keeping the shipping lanes open.
Last winter was so harsh, that U.S. flagged shipments between December 1, 2013 and May 30, 2014 decreased close to 7 million tons, as compared to the same time period in 2012 - 2013. Last winter, two steelmakers had to cut production, and there were power plants that were very low on coal........

Bi-Partisan Bill Introduced To Repeal Ethanol Mandate........
On Thursday, U.S. Senators Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif and Pat Toomey, R-Pa, and Jeff Flake, R-Ariz introduced a bill intended to remove the corn ethanol mandate within the Renewable Fuel Standard.
Approximately 40% of the corn grown in the U.S. is used to make ethanol. The senators are concerned about the Renewable Fuel Standard's effect on food prices.
Feinstein said that a considerable amount of corn is being used for fuel, and if the RFS mandate makes it to full implementation, corn prices will increase. The Congressional Budget Office asserts that this will result in up to a $3.5 billion increase in food costs annually........

Des Plaines River Near Joliet, Illinois
Legislation Introduced To Stop Invasive Species........
On Thursday, Michigan legislators, U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow, D-Lansing and Representative Candice Miller, R-Harrison Township introduced a bill, the Defending Our Great Lakes Act, which mandates federal agencies take immediate action to prevent the spread of invasive aquatic species from the Mississippi River Basin to the Great Lakes.
The bill specifically targets an 82 year old 'strategic choke point", the Brandon Road Lock and Dam on the Des Plaines River in Joliet, Illinois. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has been considering redesigning this lock and dam for some time. The Corps is mulling the installation of a lock that will "flush" invasive species prior to a boat passing through the system.
The legislation would oblige the Corps to head up the federal efforts to prevent the spread of invasive species, in conjunction with state, local and regional officials, with the input of the environmental and business communities........

Mississippi River At Cottage Grove, Minnesota
Cottage Grove Obtaining Mississippi River Island........
The city of Cottage Grove, Minnesota is looking into acquiring an island in the Mississippi River for use as a primitive recreation spot for outdoors aficionados.
In 2009, the island had been tax forfeited, and is currently owned by Washington County. In 2014, it was classified as conservation land. Due to the conservancy status, special legislation is required before the property can be transferred to Cottage Grove.
The city of Cottage Grove will preserve the island for recreational use. Ryan Schroeder, Cottage Grove's City Administrator says that the island's waterfront would be a nice place for paddlers to take a break and enjoy their surroundings........

Fewer Eagles Around Due To Ice Cover........
In early January, field biologist Kelly McKay found fewer eagles in the Quad Cities region during the North American Mid-Winter Eagle Survey. He said that there were only 1,525 eagles in the region, compared to 4,958 eagles during January 2014.
McKay said that during this year's count period, there was a severe arctic blast, creating significant ice cover. As a result, the eagles headed further downstream.
Even considering the ice, the total number of eagles present was still higher than the 548 tallied in 2010. More significant is the number of immature eagles present was a healthy 34.3%........
