BISMARCK - The North
Dakota Public Service Commission
(PSC) will hold three public hear-
ings regarding a ~proposal for the
Dakota Access Pipeline. Hearings
will be held in Mandan, Killdeer
and Williston.
Dakota Access L.L.C has filed
an application for the pipeline. The
entire pipeline would run approxi-
mately 1,150 miles beginning froria
the Bakken/Three Forks play in
North Dakota through portions of
South Dakota and Iowa and ending
in Patoka, Ill. The North Dakota
portion consists of approximately
358 miles of crude oil pipeline that
increases in diameter incrementally
from 12 inches to 20, 24 and ulti-
mately 30 inches.
It is estimated that the pipeline
will initially transport approxi- .
mately 450,000 barrels of crude oil
per day, with a :maximuna capacity
of 570,000 barrels per day or
greater depending on demand. Six
tank terminals are planned along the
route: at the starting point near
Stanley, south of Tioga, near Ep-
ping, near Trenton, near Watford
City, and at Johnson's Corner. Esti-
mated cost of the entire project is
$3.78 billion, with nearly $1.41 bil-
lion estimated for the North Dakota
portion.

Agency: Beware of potential for hantavirus infection
BISMARCK - With spring clean-
ing in mind, many people will be
cleaning cabins, sheds and other
buildings thathave been closed for
the winter. The North Dakota De-
partment of Health (NDDoH) re-
minds residents to protect themselves
against hantavirus, a viral infection
associated with exposure to areas
where rodents have been present.
"Hantavirus exposure can lead to
hantavirus pulmonary syndrome
(HPS), which is a viral infection that
causes severe hmg disease. Infected
rodents, primarily deer mice, spread
the virus in their urine,droppings and ~,
saliva. The virus is transmitted to
people when they breathe in air con-
taminated by the virus, and on rare
occasions it can be transmitted
through an infected rodent bite," ac-
cording to Michelle Feist, Epidemi-
ology and Surveillance Program "~
manager with the Department of -I~
Health's Division of Disease Control.
If you will be cleaning areas that -t~
may have contained rodents.
NDDoH recommends the following .~
steps to avoid hantavirus infection: ,~
Ventilate the space by opening
the doors and windows for 30 min-
utes before cleaning
Do not stir up dust by sweeping
or vacuuming up droppings, urine or
nesting materials
Wear gloves and use disinfectant
when cleaning up dead rodents or
their urine, droppings and nests
Saturate material with disinfec-
tant for five minutes before removal
Mop floors and clean counter-
tops, cabinets and drawers with dis-
infectant
Use a commercial disinfectant or
a bleach solution made with one part
bleach and nine parts water
Symptoms of HPS usually begin
two to three weeks after infection.
Early symptoms commonly include
fever, muscle and body aches, t'a-
tigue, headache, dizziness, chills, percent resulting in death. About 75
