Comments:
The repository has limited representative samples of rock core from projects within the Little Rock district. They are located in a storage building in Fort Chaffee, Arkansas. There is no staff and very little organization concerning the storage facility. All core is NX, NQ, HQ, or 6 x 7.5, and was retrieved for geotechnical-engineering purposes.
