Although Hidden Timber Dam broke Saturday morning near Mission, South Dakota, but officials said they do not anticipate the extra water impacting the Village of Niobrara.

Nebraska Department of Transportation officials said they are monitoring the Niobrara River and will notify residents of change. However, officials said the river has receded in the last week and can withstand the increase from to the Hidden Timber Dam.
