IDAHO FALLS — From the formation of the National Reactor Testing Station on the desert near Arco to the growth of an Idaho Falls campus managed by the U.S. Department of Energy, the Idaho National Laboratory is a place where history is made.
For years, many items and documents associated with historic INL achievements were scattered throughout the desert and Idaho Falls campus collecting dust. Today, the INL is making an effort to preserve and document these artifacts in one location. That’s the purpose of the Secure Access Facilities building.
Located off North Boulevard in Idaho Falls, the cultural resources management office inside the building contains thousands of items yet to be documented. Austin Schulz and Alana Haack are the archivists who manage and oversee this effort.
The pair haven’t even scratched the surface of what’s in the archives and are discovering new items every day.
Schulz showed us some artifacts that were used around nuclear reactors in the INL’s early history. Watch it in the video above.
