TEACHERS APPROVE CONTRACT
The Glasgow Education Association last week voted to approve a new contract
between the teachers union and the Glasgow School District.
Glasgow Education Association President Jim Stone stated that the teachers approved
the contract by a vote of 59-18. This was the third time the Glasgow teachers
have voted on a contract. The previous two times the teachers rejected the contract
negotiated by the teacher's executive board and the school board. The two sides
had met last Wednesday and made minor changes in language that would make the
contract more agreeable to the teachers. This new two-year has yet to be ratified
by the Glasgow School Board and they will vote on the pact at their October 13th
board meeting. The contract will be retroactive and will go into affect immediately
after the school board approves the contract.
The teachers and school board have been negotiating on a new contract since this
summer and the main changes in the contract involved leaves and incentives that
would allow Glasgow teachers to retire early. Glasgow teachers also did not receive
a raise for the first year of the contract and just a small increase in pay in
the second year of the contract for teachers with the most experience and education.

WATER BILL PASSES COMMITTEE (9/22)
According to a press release from Senator Conrad Burns, the Senate Energy and
Natural Resources Committee, of which Burns is a member, has approved his bill
authorizing construction and operation of a rural water system on and around the
Fort Peck Indian Reservation.
The bill authorizes $124 million to be spent over 5 years for the development
of a water system on the reservation and $51 million for the portion of the system
around the reservation. Upon completion, the water system would provide a safe
water source for nearly 24,000 people in the region.
According to Burns, the water around the reservation is so bad that many families
are forced to buy bottled water, which is extremely expensive, especially when
one considers the unemployment rate on the reservation is almost 75 percent.
Burns also noted that construction of the new water system would have the potential
to create a lot of jobs and that the infrastructure is needed before any real
economic development can take place in the region that is sorely in need of jobs.
The bill, which has the support of residents both on and off the reservation,
and the endorsement of the Tribal Council of the Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes,
must now be approved by the full Senate.
AREA HOUSING AUTHORITIES RECEIVE FUNDING (9/22)

operation of existing public housing projects.

Richland Housing Authority: $177,723

on distribution to the state board, which meets in December. Checks will be award

The VCCF was created in December of 1995, with an anonymous gift to the Montana
Community Foundation. Today, a Board of Directors oversees the work of the Foundation.

earnings on an endowment valued at $35,828.26 invested with the Montana Community
Foundation.

TENTATIVE SCHOOL DEAL REACHED (9/15)
The Glasgow School Board and the Glasgow Education Association have come together
and reached a tentative deal on a new contract. Last week the negotiatiors for
both the school board and the teachers met for an hour and half and agreed to
several changes in the in the current contract. In July the teachers and school
board had reached a tentative contract but two weeks ago the general membership
of the teachers union voted overwhelmingly to reject that tentative deal. This
new agreement still does not offer a pay raise on the base salary but does a offer
a small increase in salary on the second year of the contract for those teachers
with the most experience.
The negotiatiors also made changes in the school leave policy basically undoing
changes that had been made for the tentative agreement that the teachers rejected
two weeks ago. Also eliminated from the contract was the provision that the school
board negotiatiors had pushed that would of offered an incentive for teachers
to work towards a masters degree.
The school board at their regular meeting last Wednesday approved the tentative
contract unanimously. Now the contract must be approved by the Glasgow Education
Association and they were to vote on the contract Tuesday evening. Back

70th Anniversary of the Sleeping Buffalo Resort Presents Saco's Big
Burger
What do you get if you combine over 50 horses, a dozen wagons, 50 Native American
dancers, 3,000 hungry people and 6,040 pounds of ground beef? You get a new
world record! September 5th heralded the 70th anniversary of the Sleeping
Buffalo Resort as well as Saco entering it's name into the annals of modern
history with the assembling, baking, and consumption of the world's larges hamburger
patty. The day started off with a jackpot roping event with the Shriner's
Black Horse Patrol from Billings parading by. As Youth and Adult Native
American dancers performed, the Big Burger was being assembled in a 25 foot,
12 burner oven. The beef was donated by local ranchers and was processed
in Malta, shipped to the oven and unpacked by an army of volunteers. After
the burger was assembled, a Montana Power crane lowered the two halves of the
steel cover over the cinder block oven and the 12 (500,000 btu) burners were
ignited. Cooking for over 2 hours at 150 degrees, the hood was removed
and the feast fest began as the wagon train from Saco made its appearance.
We had the opportunity to interview the persons that conceived, plotted, and
executed the event, all you need to do is click on one of the following links

Corps To
Reduce Reservoir Water Flow At
Fort Peck Dam(9/3)
(Helena-AP) -- The U-S Army Corps of Engineers says releases from Fort Peck
Dam will be reduced, starting Tuesday. River stages will fall about two feet
at Wolf Point and two-and-a-half feet at Culbertson by next Thursday. Officials
say the reduction necessary to balance storage in the three largest Missouri
River reservoirs. Larry Cieslik is chief of the Reservoir Control Center in
Omaha, Nebraska. He says runoff into Fort Peck Lake this year has been much
lower than the other two reservoirs, and the reduction will help conserve about
three feet of water. He says flows will gradually be increased in the last week
of November to make sure there's enough water to generate electricity throughout
the winter.

MONTANA,
DAKOTAS SHOULD BENEFIT FROM RIVER PLAN (9/2)
(Billings-AP) - The big question now is whether the Army Corps of Engineers
will accept the plan that has been approved by the eight states in the Missouri
River Basin Association. The states have fought for decades over the needs of
recreation and wildlife on the north end of the basin and the navigation needs
of the states on the south end. Association President Richard Opper of Lewistown
says the compromise agreement should mean more water for Montana and the Dakotas
when times get tough. It will be presented to the Corps of Engineers this month.
The Corps manages the main stem of the Missouri and its six major dams, including
Fort Peck in Montana and Garrison in North Dakota. The Corps came up with a
management plan in 1994 that proved so unpopular so fast that the corps asked
the association to help design a better one. The association is composed of
representatives of each of the eight states - Wyoming, Montana, the Dakotas,
Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri - and a delegate representing 28 Indian
tribes with reservations in the basin.
