Collection of reports containing from one to up to several hundred pages and water well files related to the MX Missile Project of the late 1970s and early 1980s. The collection is in 2 4-drawer filing cabinets. The geologic/hydrologic reports are kept at the NBMG, and some years ago, the cultural reports were sent to the Nevada Historical Society. The "Amount" is based on the number of reports and files listed on a typed index that may need revision. MX Files The area covered by the project is part of eastern and central Nevada.

606 reports and maps with pages varying from 1 to many hundreds. Most are private company engineering studies done for construction sites and commonly contain maps, soil and hazard reports, and geotechnical data. Some items are area geohazard reports some of which were used to compile some of the NBMG urban maps. Some items are private company water well reports. The items are cataloged and filed into three categories according to the area covered: 1) State; 2) County; and 3) 15' quadrangle. Each item has a unique written identifier. Site sources are in category 3, where the state is divided into 15' rectangles that are numbered. As part of this Inventory Project, these files were entered into the Open File Report...
