Officials evacuate residents of a mobile home park in Hebron.]
HEBRON, Ohio They know all about flooding in the low-lying parts of this Licking County village.
Theyve peered out their windows and watched picnic tables float by. Theyve stood on their porches and gawked at waves licking the front steps. Theyve swapped rumors about just how bad it would get if the dam at Buckeye Lake, just a couple of miles away, failed.
But now that engineers say that last point is a significant worry, using scary words such as catastrophic failure, Hebron residents arent just talking about it.

We are concerned, said Clifford Mason, mayor of the 2,300-resident village. I think its important for someone from the village to be at the table.
Hebrons leaders didnt know about the alarming Army Corps of Engineers report concerning the earthen dams viability until news reports on Wednesday. Mason hopes to change that.
On Wednesday night, the village council agreed to send the state a letter outlining its concerns about Buckeye Lakes future. The council also asked that a Hebron representative, in this case Mason, be included in future discussions.
Though the village is up the road from the lake, across I-70, estimates still show that if the dam were to give way, water from the 3,000-acre lake would flood the homes of at least 3,000 people. That includes parts of Hebron, which could be flooded within two hours. That likely would inundate the villages water-treatment plant and areas that lie near the South Fork of the Licking River.

OMIB: Church Construction Update - Video
ROANOKE, Va. -
The famous steeples in Roanoke that came toppling down are now being used to help preserve the church and Roanoke Catholic School's future.
It's been less than a year since the construction at St. Andrew's Catholic Church in Roanoke. Drive down Interstate 581 and the brand new steeples greet you as you enter downtown Roanoke from the North.
The new steeples are steel and should last as long as the church itself, according to a man who was able to scoop up some of the used wood from the previous steeples.
It's truly amazing what you can do with things most people would throw away. In the case of that man and the old St. Andrew's steeples, the past is being used to help preserve the future.
Waste is a word that doesn't exist in the workshop at Black Dog Salvage. With a few screws and some precision cuts, Mike Whiteside and his team can find a use for almost anything.
"We're always looking for salvage opportunities in our area because we like working here," Black Dog Salvage Co-Owner Mike Whiteside said.
Black Dog was there when the old wood steeples came down and the new steel ones went up at St. Andrew's Catholic Church in Roanoke. They weren't a contractor on the project, but the undertaking was featured on an episode of the show Salvage Dawgs airing on the DIY Network. The wood was offered to Black Dog Salvage rather than sending it to a dump.
"The steeple wood was basically a throw away, we went in and cleaned up that pile of wood," Whitside said. "I didn't want to throw it away, I wanted to keep it."
In true Black Dog fashion Whiteside went to work with the reclaimed wood doing what he and his team do best, creating one of a kind treasures.

John R. North, a retired civil engineer and church organist, died March 6 at York Hospital in York, Pa., of a cerebral hemorrhage. He was 77.
The son of Clyde M. North, a Green Spring Dairy stationary engineer, and Edna Erhardt North, a homemaker, John Richard North was born in Baltimore and raised in Parkville.
He was a 1958 graduate of Polytechnic Institute and after earning a civil engineering degree in 1966 from Johns Hopkins University, he served in the Maryland Air National Guard.
During his engineering career, Mr. North worked for the Williams Construction Co., Rouse Co., H.A. Harris and BEKA Industries as an estimator on heavy highway, building construction and bridge construction projects.
In later years, he had his own company, where he worked until retiring in 2009.
A longtime Parkton resident, Mr. North was an accomplished musician who played a variety of instruments including the organ, piano and harpsichord.
Mr. North began playing the organ when he was 14 years old, and in 1996 earned a degree in organ performance from what is now the Community College Baltimore County Essex.
He had been church organist at several churches in Baltimore County and most recently was organist at St. James' Episcopal Church in Parkton.
During the 1990s, he was the accompanist on the harpsichord for the Goucher College dance troupe and for Choreographie Antique.
He had been a supporting member since 1983 of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra.
