Waterloo named in chatter for FAA flight station site
The FAA may announce a site for the automated Flight Service Station by May 31. Waterloo is touted as a leading candidate, aided by Iowa lawmakers who deny backing any single location. The station could bring about 90 jobs and a $2 million payroll, replacing several current offices. Cedar Rapids and others are also in contention.

He notes legislators in the Midwest weigh jamming risks while Roger Jepsen supports the plan to broadcast on 1180 and abandons 1040.

Dr. Terrence Williams head of the U of I anatomy department was cleared by a University of Iowa internal probe regarding tenure dispute allegations. Richard D. Remington said no evidence supported the claims and investigated possible conflicts of interest and student exam paper use. Asa Black had filed a grievance leading to a Faculty Judicial Panel review and later a Johnson County District Court lawsuit. The state seeks dismissal for lack of a required Board of Appeals filing.
