MANAGEMENT AGENCY
Proposed Flood Hazard Determi-
nations for Ward County, North
Dakota and Incorporated Areas
The Department of Homeland
Security’s Federal Emergency
Management Agency has issued a
preliminary Flood Insurance Rate
Map (FIRM), and where applicable,
Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report,
reflecting proposed flood hazard
determinations within Ward County,
North Dakota and Incorporated
Areas. These flood hazard determi-
nations may include the addition or
modification of Base Flood Eleva-
tions, base flood depths, Special
Flood Hazard Area boundaries or
zone designations, or the regulatory
floodway. Technical information or
comments are solicited on the pro-
posed flood hazard determinations
shown on the preliminary FIRM
and/or FIS report for Ward County,
North Dakota and Incorporated
Areas. These flood hazard determi-
nations are the basis for the flood-
plain management measures that
your community is required to either
adopt or show evidence of being al-
ready in effect in order to qualify or
remain qualified for participation in
the National Flood Insurance Pro-
gram. However, before these deter-
minations are effective for floodplain
management purposes, you will be
provided an opportunity to appeal
the proposed information. For infor-
mation on the statutory 90-day
period provided for appeals, as well
as a complete listing of the com-
munities affected and the locations
where copies of the FIRM are avail-
able for review, please visit FEMA’s

MINOT CITY COUNCIL
SPECIAL MEETING
JULY 17, 2020 AT 12:00 P.M.
Members Present: Evans, Jantzer,
Olson (phone), Pitner, Podrygula,
Ross, Sipma
Members Absent: None
Mayor Sipma presiding and led the
City Council in the Pledge of Allegi-
ance. Sipma apologized for the short
notice calling the meeting but said
he recently received the request
from the WDEA and the amicus brief
needs to be filed before the dead-
line. Acting City Manager Lakefield
explained, he was contacted by Ge-
off Simon, Executive Director of
WDEA, who is asking political sub-
divisions particularly in western
North Dakota to sign on as affected
parties in an amicus brief in support
of the Dakota Access Pipeline. The
brief is outlining additional economic
impacts and social impacts that may
be a result of shutting down the
pipeline that may not have been
considered in the Court’s decision. It
is not taking a position on the under-
lying issue of the pipeline but just
whether or not the pipeline should
be allowed to operate while the deci-
sion is taking place. Minot is im-
pacted in many ways through reve-
nues in oil production in the state,
through Hub City funding received
through oil tax revenues, funding for
many water projects and flood pro-
tection projects. In addition, there
are secondary impacts including
loss of jobs and prolonged furlough-
ing in the delay of recovery in the
energy sector and impacts from de-
creased sales tax revenues. The de-
cision before the Council is whether
they want the City of Minot to be list-
ed in this amicus brief or if they want
to stay on the sidelines. Mayor Sip-
ma referenced the refiguring of Hub
City allocations which are calculated
on the premise of oil prices at
$52-$54 per barrel. The formula
would provide Minot with an addi-
tional $3 million annually and $6 mil-
lion for the biennium to be used to-
ward oil impacted infrastructure. He
said, they need to discuss and de-
cide whether to sign on in support of
WDEA or not. Tawny Trottier Cale
approached the Council with a
greeting in a Native language. She
then said she heard there would be
a Council meeting to discuss wheth-
er or not to support the Dakota Ac-
cess Pipeline. She questioned
whether the City feels this is some-
thing they should spend time on.
She said she doesn’t think they can
separate the issues of economic and
social impacts from the pipeline it-
self. The pipeline is interwoven with
many social movements right now.
What it boils down to is the ability to
recognize the indigenous
sovereignty of the Oceti äakowi?
people, the Seven Council Fires or
the great Sioux Nation. If the
Federal Government had taken time
to recognize their sovereignty, they
would not be having this discussion.
She said, she hopes the Council
votes to show their support to Stand-
ing Rock. Mayor Sipma ack-
nowledged the emails sent to Coun-
cil in opposition and support. Evans
moved the City Council decline sup-
port of the amicus brief and remain
neutral on the issue. Motion second-
ed by Podrygula. Podrygula said,
although he agrees that pipelines
are the safest way to transport
petroleum products, he believes this
is a technical issue for the court and
is not something the City should be
involved in. He said, they have not
signed onto briefs in the past and
believes there is nothing Minot can
add to the amicus brief that has not
already been covered. Sipma rem-
inded, the amicus brief was present-
ed to them regarding whether or not
there is an impact to Minot and other
cities in western North Dakota. He
said he believes there is an impact
to Minot which is why he called the
special meeting. Minot receives Hub
City funding, there would be impacts
to sales tax revenue, and will impact
day to day as we work on revenue
projections. Jantzer also reminded
the Council to focus on what they
are being asked, which is, if the
pipeline were to shut down, would it
impact Minot? He said the answer
is, yes. Oil revenue provides funding
for water projects including flood
control. They would not be out of
line to let the court know that Minot
would be impacted by the pipeline’s
closure. Geoff Simon, Executive
Director of WDEA, elaborated on the
request. He said, other cities includ-
ing Dickinson, Williston, and Watford
City have signed on as parties to the
brief. There would be no further obli-
gation on behalf of the City of Minot.
They want to make sure the court
understands that the potential shut-
down goes far beyond the com-
panies who use it to ship crude oil.
The oil extraction and production tax
distribution formulas support the
communities through Hub City fund-
ing, the Common Schools Trust
Fund, and the Resources Trust
Fund to name a few. The concern is
that if the pipeline shuts down, so
does the restart of the industry and
there could be long term ramifica-
tions for Minot and the entire state.
Putting this crude on rail would be
far less safe and much more expen-
sive. He said a shut down would be
devastating to the state and all the
communities that depend on the in-
dustry. He then explained that the
amicus brief is being filed in support
of the motion made by the Dept of
Justice on behalf of the Corps of En-
gineers. They maintain that they did
everything properly and the environ-
mental assessment of the pipeline
and the integrity of the crossing was
quite thorough. They argue that it is
beyond the authority of the court to
shut down a project that has been
operating safely for three years. He
said, they are supporting that motion
in their brief. The stay has been
granted based upon the motion filed
by Energy Transfer, Dakota Access
but it is only there until the court de-
cides if the decision to shut down
the pipeline was warranted. After
that they will determine if an en-
vironmental impact statement is jus-
tified under the National Environ-
mental Policy Act. He said, the pri-
mary purpose of this is for the court
to understand the ripple effects that
a shut down would have. Pitner
asked if there have been any com-
munities who have not signed on or
have chosen to remain neutral in the
matter. Mr. Simon said, everyone
they have asked has agreed to sign
on including Dunn, Billings, Willi-
ams, McKenzie and Emmons coun-
ties as well as Williston, Dickinson,
Watford City. Mountrail and Morton
County’s Commission meet Mon-
day. Evans stated it is unorthodox
for a city to sign onto an amicus brief
they have not seen. She suggested
they delay approval until they have
an opportunity to review it. Mr.
Simon stated, the deadline for sub-
mission is Monday so there isn’t
much time. He said, Mr. Lakefield
has a news release from WDEA is-
suing a plea to the judge to reverse
his decision and consider the
economic ramifications of the im-
mediate and the potentially
long-term shutdown. The news
release encapsulates what will be in-
cluded in the brief. They won’t go
beyond economic and safety issues.
One element addresses what would
happen if the crude oil was tran-
sported by rail and how it would af-
fect the agricultural community
which depends on the railroad to
move commodities. There could be
harvest delays that would affect the
prices of commodities. Mr. Simon
explained, they are working with a
firm in D.C. and he has been prom-
ised a first draft no later than Mon-
day morning. The absolute deadline
however, is close of business Mon-
day afternoon. He assured there
would not be any further obligation,
legal or otherwise. The purpose of
asking Minot to join the brief is to
add weight to the points they are try-
ing to make. They have concerns
about the ramifications of a shut-
down and they want to demonstrate
that they have the Hub Cities and
the largest oil-producing counties on
board as well as support from the
counties in which the pipeline
crosses. Mr. Lakefield asked Mr.
Simon to comment on their previous
conversations regarding cost and
contributions. Mr. Simon said, the
cost to develop the brief is $30,000
and the WDEA will pay for at least
half. They have requested partici-
pants contribute the other half which
equates to an amount not to exceed
$2,500. He said, when you consider
the shutdown would have a
multi-million effect on the state’s
economy, $2,500 is not a lot. Po-
drygula said he supports pipelines
and understands the impacts but
raised concerns about getting the
City of Minot involved. He said the
brief is very persuasive without in-
cluding Minot and he doesn’t believe
the City should be dragged into this.
He said, oil is important for the state
and for the country but he is not
comfortable signing Minot’s name to
it and feels pressured and rushed
into a decision. Mr. Simon stated,
Minot is not being dragged into any-
thing but they are already involved.
This will affect everyone in the state
and they are trying to make sure the
local impact is considered in the de-
cision. The State and Petroleum
Council prepared marvelous briefs
but looking back a few weeks, the
State submitted other amicus briefs
in support of a decision to keep the
pipeline in operation. They were also
done well but were ignored by the
judge. He said, if the Minot Council
is not comfortable making a financial
contribution, it is not a requirement
but they would like to put Minot in
the amicus brief in support of their
argument. Pitner said, from his per-
spective, they have no legal obliga-
tion, there is no financial contribution
required, they are simply being
asked does the shutdown effect
Minot economically, and it does.
Evans withdrew her motion. Po-
drygula withdrew the second. Evans
moved Podrygula seconded to post-
pone the issue until Monday morn-
ing when they have had an oppor-
tunity to read the amicus brief. After
brief discussion, a vote was taken
and carried by the following roll call
vote: Evans, Jantzer, Olson, Po-
drygula; nays: Pitner, Ross, Sipma.
Podrygula asked if a letter of support
could satisfy their request without
signing onto an amicus brief. Evans
responded by saying, a letter of sup-
port would not be added into the
record. It would have to be included
in the amicus brief along with all oth-
er secondary information. The Coun-
cil discussed a time for the Monday
meeting and decided to hold a spe-
cial Council meeting Monday at
10:00 am. There being no further
business, Evans moved Pitner
seconded and was carried to ad-
journ the meeting at 12:40 pm

MINOT CITY COUNCIL
SPECIAL MEETING
JULY 20, 2020 AT 10:00 A.M.
Members Present: Evans, Jantzer,
Olson, Pitner, Podrygula, Ross, Sip-
ma
Members Absent: None
Mayor Sipma presiding and led the
City Council in the Pledge of Allegi-
ance.
Ross moved Jantzer seconded to
approve the request from Geoff
Simon, Executive Director of the
WDEA, to include the City of Minot
as a supporter to the amicus brief
being submitted in response to the
shutdown of the Dakota Access
Pipeline. Mr. Simon provided addi-
tional information to the Council. He
said, a draft of the amicus brief was
emailed to the Council the previous
night. He reiterated the impacts of
increasing production costs if using
rail to transport oil. He said, the
WDEA wants to ensure the court ful-
ly appreciates the devastation it
would cause, on top of the economic
losses experienced due to the drop
in oil prices and the demand des-
truction caused by the pandemic. He
clarified, they are not taking sides in
the argument made by the Standing
Rock Tribes that the environmental
review was inadequate. They are
just asking the court not to shut
down the pipeline while additional
environmental reviews are conduct-
ed because there would be irrepar-
able damage to the economy. He
then stated, there would be no future
obligation on behalf of the City of
Minot, they are just putting their con-
cerns on record. He mentioned the
financial contribution that was dis-
cussed previously but said MADC
has offered to make the contribution
if requested. The Mayor then asked
for comments from Shane Goettle,
the City’s Special Counsel on Leg-
islative Lobbying. Mr. Goettle said
he is concerned about the appear-
ance of Minot compared to other
Hub Cities like Williston and Dickin-
son who have already sign off on the
amicus brief. How the City of Minot
reacts to this could affect Minot’s
standing within the Association and
could impact how we work with Hub
Cities. He reminded the Council,
they have come a long way since
Minot was designated a Hub City
and have worked to build a more ob-
jective formula-based approach for
Hub City funding. His concern would
be in what it looks like to the associ-
ation and how it transfers to the
legislators in those communities.
Minot receives funding from gross
production tax, as well as the state’s
share of flood control funding from
the Natural Resources Trust Fund
through the excise tax. If there is a
reduced amount of oil being pro-
duced in North Dakota, then there is
a subsequent reduction for available
funding. It also affects the case for
the Legacy Fund and long-term
financing for the local share of flood
protection. Tom Rafferty, represent-
ing the Minot Area Chamber of
Commerce, spoke in favor of sup-
porting the amicus brief. He pointed
out the Minot logo which exempli-
fies, Provide, Power, Protect,
through agriculture, energy and the
Air Force. Businesses are con-
cerned especially during the COVID
pandemic and they would like to get
the economy back to normal as
soon as possible. This shut down
would devastate Minot even worse
than it already is. Brekka Kramer,
representing MADC, also spoke in
support of signing on to the amicus
brief. She said, the mission of the
MADC is to facilitate business at-
traction, expansion, retention, and
advocacy to diversify and strengthen
the Minot area. One of their posi-
tions is that we are the gateway to
the Bakken and oil and gas is critical
to our area. She said they are there
to strongly urge the Council be a
part of the amicus brief. They provid-
ed resolutions of support from the
Board of Directors of the MADC and
Chamber of Commerce. She stated,
as Mr. Simon had mentioned, the
MADC would contribute financially
to this cause in the amount of
$2,500 if requested. She then said,
there is no point in shutting down the
pipeline since it is extremely unlikely
that an environmental statement will
compel owners to change any as-
pect of pipeline operations. Tawny
Trottier Cale, representing the ND
Human Rights Coalition, spoke in
opposition to the request. She
thanked the Mayor for calling the
meeting and holding an open dis-
cussion as she was unable to find
similar opportunities afforded to the
citizens of Watford City, Williston or
Dickinson regarding this issue. She
referenced the Alderman’s previous
comments stating they are being
pressured into supporting the brief.
She said, Minot is currently in a neu-
tral position but agreeing to add
Minot’s name decides which side of
a high-profile, globally recognized,
social issue they are taking. She
questioned if the citizens of Minot
are ready for the social and econom-
ic ramifications of that stance. She
quoted the WDEA’s recent
newsletter that included a statement
by Lynn Helms, the Director of the
Department of Mineral Resources,
which said it is too optimistic to be-
lieve crude oil demand would return
to pre-virus levels by this time next
year and the pandemic would likely
have a permanent impact on
demand. She stated, this is a
for-profit company expecting local
organizations and municipalities to
pay a portion of their legal fees to ar-
gue against a pipeline that has been
determined by the federal govern-
ment as unlawful. She asked the
Council to uphold the Mayor’s previ-
ous statement that Minot handles it-
self differently than most places
around the country, and to deny the
request. Chris Brown, a Minot
resident, said, the economic impact
relating to the Dakota Access Pipe-
line is not a neutral term. Agreeing
to the economic impact shows tacit
support for all aspects of the
pipeline’s contested development
and current operation. When the
Council and WDEA speaks about
community, the voices and lives of
Indigenous People are absent from
the conversation. People throughout
North Dakota fought to oppose the
Dakota Access Pipeline’s develop-
ment and their concerns were ig-
nored. He said Minot should stand
on the side of Indigenous commun-
ities and not on the side of oil and
gas corporations. The U.S. District
Judge has ordered a full environ-
mental review by the USACE citing
“serious gaps in crucial parts of the
Corps analysis.” He shared statistics
about leaks and historical data from
the Pipeline and Hazardous Material
Safety Administration. Annette Men-
num, a Minot resident and enrolled
member of the Turtle Mountain
Band of Chippewa, spoke against
the motion. She said, it was not long
ago, the reservation signed a no
fracking resolution because they
knew that one day the aquifers
would be more valuable than oil.
They make decisions in the best in-
terest od future generations. She
told the Council, if this is not their
fight, they should be prepared for
which side they choose. Olson ack-
nowledged the emails they received
over the weekend but said it seemed
like the Council is perceived to have
a lot more authority than they truly
do. They are not the judge and jury
and are just being asked if oil in-
come impacts our community, which
she said, it does. She stated, they
fought hard to achieve the status of
a Hub City because they believe
there is an impact on Minot. Losing
that income would have a negative
impact on the citizens of Minot and
would likely have an impact on
taxes. She clarified, she is not taking
sides, but is saying this will have a
negative impact on the City of Minot
so she encouraged the other Coun-
cil members to vote in favor of the
motion. Ross asked about the in-
come received through Hub Cities,
to which the Finance Director stated,
Minot received $4.8 million in 2019,
year-to-date for 2020 Minot has re-
ceived about $2 million and they are
forecasting about $4 million by the
end of the year. He stated, more im-
portantly, the money the City re-
ceives from the State Water Com-
mission supports the flood control
project. In the 2019-2021 biennium
the funding is about $186 million. It
comes from the Natural Resources
Trust Fund, funded by oil tax reve-
nue. Evans shared excerpts from
some of the emails received over
the weekend. Podrygula said, they
were asked for information and need
to focus on the economic impact the
shutdown would have on Minot. He
said, after reading the briefs, he no-
ticed that the State spoke on behalf
of the State but no one had men-
tioned the interests of local com-
munities and counties. The needs of
some local governments have not
been adequately recognized and it
should be brought to the attention of
the court. There is no acknowledge-
ment of other potential harms in-
cluding environmental and the rights
of local Tribal governments. He does
not see this as a global endorse-
ment or opposition but rather a very
technical legal issue in which they
are providing information. He shared
his disappointment that the issue
hasn’t been settled sooner. He said
he has strong feelings on the issue
but has to put the needs of the com-
munity before his own. He then
pointed out the difference between
signing on as a party to the brief and
providing information and they are
being asked to provide information.
He shared that he was impressed by
Ms. Cale, who spoke her Native
language to the Council. Because of
the changes in what they are being
asked to do he is willing to vote in
favor of accepting the brief. Pitner
listed the economic impact oil reve-
nue has had on numerous City pro-
jects. Those projects total about
26.5 mils of property tax the citizens
of Minot didn’t have to pay. There is
clearly a negative economic impact
to Minot if it is shutdown. Sipma
said, they have consistently support-
ed their partners and Minot is a
member of the WDEA as well as
other organizations such as MADC.
He then thanked MADC and their
Board for stepping forward and look-
ing at the economic development
component. He said, it is clear Minot
is a Hub City judging by the growth
in the community when oil took off.
He said, they also support other
partners, including Minot Air Force
Base, when they spoke on their
behalf during the legislative session.
He said he supports the motion be-
cause it has a significant impact on
the safety of the community through
flood control. Ross agreed, as
members of the WDEA they believe
in their mission. They belong to the
Association because there is
strength in numbers and this is an
opportunity for Minot to stand with
their partners. By voting against this
would send a message that the City
is not standing with them and sends
a message to legislators that could
be detrimental for years. They are
providing information to the court to
make an intelligent reasonable deci-
sion. A vote was taken on the above
motion and carried unanimously.
There being no further business,
Pitner moved Ross seconded and
was carried to adjourn the meeting
at 10:46 am.
