  • Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Dave Mattingly.

  • Search and rescue teams in Nepal say hundreds of power plant workers remain trapped

  • six days after a glacier collapse triggered mudslides and flash flooding along the border with Tibet.

  • The trapped workers are the focus of rescue efforts in the Himalayas.

  • The death toll now tops 1,000.

  • Several thousand others are still missing there.

  • Authorities in Arizona say a second body has been found in the Grand Canyon following Saturday's flash flooding.

  • They say one person is still missing.

  • Dozens of people were rescued or evacuated after heavy rains triggered the flooding.

  • The White House is offering details on a Venezuelan company that will be working with the U.S.

  • To develop that country's oil reserves.

  • Here's NPR's Julia Simon.

  • The company is called North American Blue Energy Partners.

  • Behind the company is 46-year-old Alejandro Betancourt,

  • who has faced multiple investigations in Spain, Switzerland, and the U.S.

  • For money laundering.

  • He has not been formally charged.

  • While Betancourt's company has experience in some types of oil fields, oil experts tell NPR it's unclear

  • if it has the experience to develop the complicated geological formations under discussion in the Trump deal.

  • That means the company may need more know-how and investment to develop the fields.
