Missouri River ice jam demolition
Summary
BISMARCK, N.D. - Demolition crews blasted chunks of ice near a large ice jam in the Missouri River March 25, 2009, in an effort to open a channel so that water can be released downstream. Water backing up behind the ice jam has forced the evacuation of about 1,700 people from low-lying areas in North Dakota's capital. (Coast Guard video/Petty Officer 3rd Class Erik Swanson)
