Flood fears rise along rivers in eastern Nebraska

COLUMBUS -- Impending rain and melting snow have raised yearly fears of flooding in much of eastern Nebraska.


Engineers: Ice dusting doing its job on Platte

PLATTSMOUTH -- Engineers say ice dusting along the Platte River in eastern Nebraska appears to be working, although there's still some concerns about ice jams.

Last month, pilots hired by the Nebraska Emergency Management Agency spread 77 tons of coal ash over nine sites along the Platte. On Friday, engineers conducted an aerial inspection of the river.

Marlin Petermann of the Papio natural resources district says the coal ash appears to be doing its job. But, he says, the ice remains intact north of the confluence of the Platte and Elkhorn rivers.

The coal ash is intended to thaw ice slowly to prevent flooding caused by ice jams.

Without the dusting, a rapid thaw could occur, causing large chunks of ice to form dams that force water onto land, causing flooding.
