Bill Duckett Collection on Proposed Nuclear Waste Facility in Sandy Mush

Date

1985-1986

Description

In the mid-1980s Sandy Mush and surrounding communities in Madison and Haywood Counties were identified as a possible location for a long term, deep rock, nuclear waste facility by the United States Department of Energy. Community members were vehemently against this proposal, and worked together to advocate against the site.

This collection, from the papers of William "Bill" Duckett (then President of the Big Sandy Mush Communiy Club), include flyers, public comments, resolutions, and other materials documenting the anti-dump effort.
