Water Board Considers Documentary

DEVILS LAKE, N.D. (AP) - A water board in the Devils Lake region
is considering a video documentary about the flooding problems.
Devils Lake Basin Joint Water Resource Board manager Jeff Frith
says a documentary might help make the case to a larger audience
that a solution to the flooding needs to be found.
Frith says the project would cost about $35,000. He says that's
too much for the board to afford, and he'll be surveying the
community to find out how much support there is for helping with
the financing.
Devils Lake has risen about 27 feet and tripled in size since
1993 because of a series of wet years, causing hundreds of millions
of dollars in damage.
