Scope and Contents of the Materials

The Kentucky Chemical Demilitarization Citizens Advisory Committee was established by an act of Congress (Public Law No: 102-484) in 1992 to serve as a communication link between the communities surrounding the Blue Grass Army Depot and the Department of Defense relating to chemical demilitarization efforts. As a part of their mission their records consist of hundreds of publications and presentations documenting the process of determining a safe method of disposal of the chemical weapons at the Depot. This collection includes research on various disposal methods and disposal sites around the world.

These records should be used in conjunction with the records of the Concerned Citizens of Madison County, Citizen Action for a Safe Environment, and the records of the Kentucky Environmental Foundation/Kentucky Resource Council. Together these records thoroughly document the citizen activism that led to the neutralization of chemical weapons rather than incineration or mass transportation.

Collection Historical Note

The CAC provides a vital link between the community and the DOD by providing a forum for exchanging information about chemical weapons disposal efforts. It exists to represent community and state interests to the U.S. Army and DOD. Its mission is to provide a mechanism for the thorough and objective exchange of information among the citizens of Kentucky, the Army and other organizations involved in the chemical weapons demilitarization program.

The governor of Kentucky appoints commission members who serve an unlimited term at the governor’s discretion. The commission consists of nine members — seven are members of the community at large, and two are state officials. Although the commission receives limited federal funding from the DOD, it operates independent of Army influence.
