Construct Joint Curatorial Collections Facility

Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GRSM), is considering the construction of a permanent facility to accommodate staff and museum, archival, and library collections from GRSM and several surrounding National Park Service (NPS) units in Tennessee. Currently, museum collections are stored at individual park offices and in leased office spaces. The proposed curatorial facility would allow museum collections from NPS units across Tennessee to be consolidated and properly processed, stored, and catalogued.

Great Smoky Mountains National Park is soliciting comments on this EA. The public review period is August 2- September 16, 2011.
