A record Sheyenne River crest struck in 2009 (~20.69 feet, surpassing an 1881 record), followed by an even higher near-record crest in 2011 (~21.2-21.5 feet).
A permanent flood-protection response
A permanent flood-protection infrastructure project has since been undertaken specifically in response to this documented flood history.
North Dakota's genuinely modest statewide insurance range
No Valley City-specific premium figure was found this pass; North Dakota's own statewide range ran approximately $1,300-$2,400/year, per this project's own ND state record.
