ABSTRACT The Missouri River, bordering Nebraska, has previously been reported to be uninhabitable for unionid mollusks. Studies conducted in the Missouri River and its backwaters, primarily during 1981 and 1982. revealed the presence of thirteen species and subspecies of unionid mollusks. The apparent absence of any extensive prior unionid work in the Missouri River may explain the discrepancy between this and previous literature. little has been written on the unionid fauna of the general understanding of the species present. The area Missouri River in general, and almost nothing on that portion selected for the survey extends from Santee, Nebraska to the of the river bordering Nebraska. Collections were reported confluence of the Platte and Missouri Rivers below Omaha during the nineteenth century from the Great Falls of the (Fig.

KANSAS V. NEBRASKA ET AL
(Slip Opinion) OCTOBER TERM, 2014 1 Syllabus NOTE: Where it is feasible, a syllabus (headnote) will be released, as is being done in connection with this case, at the time the opinion is issued. The syllabus constitutes no part of the opinion of the Court but has been prepared by the Reporter of Decisions for the convenience of the reader. See United States v. Detroit Timber & Lumber Co., 200 U. S. 321, 337. SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES Syllabus KANSAS v. NEBRASKA ET AL. ON EXCEPTIONS TO REPORT OF SPECIAL MASTER No. 126, Orig. Argued October 14, 2014—Decided February 24, 2015 In 1943, Congress approved the Republican River Compact, an agree- ment between Kansas, Nebraska, and Colorado to apportion the “vir- gin water originating in” the Republican River Basin. 57 Stat. 87. In 1998, Kansas filed an original action in this Court contending that Nebraska’s increased groundwater pumping was subject to regula- tion by the Compact to the extent that it depleted stream flow in the Basin. This Court agreed. Ensuing negotiations resulted in the 2002 Final Settlement Stipulation (Settlement), which established mecha- nisms to accurately measure water and promote compliance with the Compact. The Settlement identified the Accounting Procedures, a technical appendix, as the tool by which the States would measure stream flow depletion, and thus consumption, due to groundwater pumping. The Settlement also reaffirmed that “imported water”— that is, water brought into the Basin by human activity—would not count toward a State’s consumption. Again, the Accounting Proce- dures were to measure, so as to exclude, that water flow.

Iowa Department of Education Des Moines, IA 50319 Des Moines, IA 50319
THE SECRETARY OF EDUCATION WASHINGTON, DC 20202 August 18, 2021 The Honorable Kim Reynolds The Honorable Ann Lebo Governor Education Director State Capitol Iowa Department of Education Des Moines, IA 50319 Des Moines, IA 50319 Dear Governor Reynolds and Director Lebo: As the new school year begins in school districts across Iowa, it is our shared priority that students return to in-person instruction safely. The safe return to in-person instruction requires that school districts be able to protect the health and safety of students and educators, and that families have confidence that their schools are doing everything possible to keep students healthy. Iowa’s actions to block school districts from voluntarily adopting science-based strategies for preventing the spread of COVID-19 that are aligned with the guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) puts these goals at risk and may infringe upon a school district’s authority to adopt policies to protect students and educators as they develop their safe return to in-person instruction plans required by Federal law. We are aware that Iowa has enacted a State law prohibiting local educational agencies (LEAs) from adopting requirements for the universal wearing of masks.1 This State level action against science-based strategies for preventing the spread of COVID-19 appears to restrict the development of local health and safety policies and is at odds with the school district planning process embodied in the U.S. Department of Education’s (Department’s) interim final requirements. As you know, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARP Act) requires each LEA that receives Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ARP ESSER) funds to adopt a plan for the safe return to in-person instruction and continuity of services.

Nebraska's Big Ten History
100 2017-18 NEBRASKA WOMEN'S BASKETBALL NEBRASKA'S BIG TEN HISTORY Although Nebraska competed for the first time as a member of the Big Ten Conference in 2011-12, the Huskers have a relatively substantial history playing against Big Ten opponents. Nebraska's first-ever meeting with a Big Ten school came with a thrilling 68-67 overtime victory over Minnesota on Dec. 30, 1977. Two weeks later, the Huskers improved to 2-0 against the Big Ten with a 71-63 victory over Iowa at the Jennies Classic in Warrensburg, Mo., on Jan. 13, 1978. The following season, Nebraska improved to 3-0 against the Big Ten with a narrow 59-57 victory over Minnesota at the Devaney Center on Nov. 28, 1978. Overall, the Huskers carry an 88-78 all-time record against Big Ten opposition after their first six seasons of Big Ten Conference competition. Nebraska is 64-49 against Big Ten foes in its first six seasons in the conference, including 56-44 in Big Ten regular-season play. The Huskers captured the 2014 Big Ten Tournament title by going 3-0 in Indianapolis. The Huskers are 8-5 all-time in the Big Ten Tournament and 6-3 at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The Huskers are 32-30 on the road in Big Ten play in their first six Big Ten seasons.
