Parkston Farmer Awarded $1M In Fraud CaseOLIVET (AP) — A Parkston farmer has been awarded more than $1

million against a former Watertown cattle seller for misrepresentingthe origin of a shipment of cattle to his farm.

A Hutchinson County jury awarded farmer Curtis Huether $100,000in damages and $1 million in punitive damages against David Bisson.

Huether accused Bisson of misrepresenting the origin of a ship-ment of cattle to his farm in 2008, which resulted in Huether’s cattlebeing quarantined for about eight months.

A call to a phone listing for Bisson rang unanswered. The jury also found that an Iowa trucking company committed civil

conspiracy in the case.

The apparent low bidder for a Yanktonwater plant improvement project came in wellbelow the engineer’s estimate Wednesdayafternoon.

During the bid opening at City Hall, WelflConstruction of Yankton submitted a bid of$661,800. The engineer’s estimate was $960,000.

“It came out good,” said Kyle Goodmanson,the Yankton environmental services director.

He added that Welfl is a good contractorthat the city has worked with in the past.

Four other companies submitted bidsWednesday. Industrial Process Technology ofMitchell bid $690,420; Gridor Construction ofBuffalo, Minn., bid $768,500; Eriksen Construc-tion of Blair, Neb., bid $797,450; and Gil HauganConstruction of Sioux Falls bid $844,700.

The Yankton City Commission will considerawarding the bid at its June 24 meeting.

Water Plant No. 2 will have to be shut downfor several weeks during the project. Most ofthe equipment being replaced dates back to1972 when the facility was built.

Work will get under way when water usageis low, since the city will be depending entirelyupon Water Plant No. 1, which was built in 1929and has the capacity to produce 3 million gal-lons per day.

The improvement project is part of the esti-mated $29 million in improvements the city isproposing to its water system in the next sev-eral years. It will be paid for out of the approxi-mately $3 million set aside so far for thoseupgrades.

Water Plant Bid Below Estimate

“Starting on the back of a garbagetruck, I didn’t think I was going to stickaround here,” Hacecky said. “Back then,there was no two-can limit or anything likethat. If it was sitting at the curb, you tookit. The one benefit of being on the garbagetruck back then was that you could put ina four-hour day and, if everything wasdone, you could go.”

That was usually balanced out withdays in which they had to haul garbageuntil 10 p.m., he added.

Hacecky, Roth and Simonsen jokedthat, with almost a quarter of the depart-ment’s veterans leaving, snow removal inthe city will be interesting to watch thiswinter.

“There is going to be a lot of curb-

banging going on,” Simonsen joked.Hacecky added that plowing snow is

not as easy as it looks.“That’s going to be the worst part for

these young guys,” he stated. “It’s the partof the job I hated most.”

The men said one of the biggest chal-lenges in snow plowing was dealing withmotorists with no patience.

“They’re in a hurry, and we’re in theirway,” Hacecky said. “They don’t under-stand what’s going on, and they don’t careto learn.”

Plowing typically begins at 2 a.m. andusually takes 10-11 hours.

“I’m not going to miss getting called upat one in the morning,” Simonsen said.

They all recalled missing holidayevents in order to remove snow from citystreets.

“It will be the first time in 38 years thatI’ll be able to sit and watch it snow,”Hacecky said of his retirement. “I used tolike snow until I had to go out and push itall the time.”

Haberman acknowledged that therewill be inexperienced workers manningthe plows this winter.

“We’ll take some steps to preparethem,” he said. “We’ve got some veteranshere yet who can give a lot of gooddirection.”

The three men aren’t worried aboutgetting bored in retirement. Hacecky hasplans to travel to Yellowstone NationalPark, Roth has an old car he is renovatingand Simonsen has some fishing tripsscheduled.

As they leave the department, the menoffered their respects to their co-workersand said they hope the public does thesame.

“The street department puts up signs,fixes catch basins, fixes curb lines, fixesstreets, hauls garbage — we do all of that,”Hacecky said. “Sometimes people seem toforget all the things we do.”
