Collection Overview
Scope and Contents of the Materials
The Blue Grass Chemical Stockpile Outreach Office Records highlights the community work and information sharing accomplished by the outreach office in Madison County. The presentations, newsclippings, television news clip coverage, meeting minutes, and photographs display the ways that the outreach office was able to connect both with the public as well as with the military and the Blue Grass Army Depot. This collection displays the office’s dedication to ensuring transparency and knowledge between the community and the military while dealing with a topic that many felt strongly about.
This collection may potentially work well with some of our other collections. For more information, please see collections under the related subject headings.
Collection Historical Note
The Blue Grass Chemical Stockpile Outreach Office was established to serve as the community's primary information resource on chemical weapons destruction in Kentucky. Although the outreach office closed in April 2024 as part of overall Blue Grass Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant (BGCAPP) closure activities, the BGCAPP outreach staff continues to respond to inquiries, provides information to stakeholders and guest speakers for civic groups, and interfaces with the governor-appointed Kentucky Chemical Demilitarization Citizens' Advisory Commission and its Chemical Destruction Community Advisory Board.
