                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Behind the gate, small houses with snow on their roofs are visible, along with leafless trees and power lines. A yellow diamond-shaped traffic sign is attached to the fence, and utility poles lean slightly under the weight of cables. The setting appears quiet and deserted; photographed by Penelope D.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&#13;
“I’ve worked all over the plant. I’ve worked with all those chemicals you’ve probably been reading about in the paper.&#13;
&#13;
“A lot of what’s being said about Hooker…it makes me angry. Much of the talk of today concerns what perhaps may have happened 25 years ago.&#13;
&#13;
“I remember when I first joined Hooker. It was a prize plant to work in. When I was a kid, you want to work at Hooker ‘cause it was a good plant. And today it’s even better, much better. Because of the things they’ve learned. I question the way people do some of these tests with chemicals. They give a rat a gallon of the stuff and then they say it’ll give you cancer. Well, you drink too much water and you’ll drown yourself. That’s the way I look at it.&#13;
&#13;
“Most people don’t realize they couldn’t survive without the products that Hooker makes. They all go into things people want and need. Like cars. Like electrical wiring. Like detergents. And all the beautiful things we have at home. A lot of ladies wouldn’t like it if they couldn’t have light at home, things that go into toasters or microwave ovens. They wouldn’t be possible if we didn’t have chemicals. We use chemicals in steel, a lot of acids. The whole society is based on chemicals as I see it, especially today. Plastics, drugs, everything.&#13;
&#13;
“Forget about chemicals? If you do, you forget about living.&#13;
&#13;
“Ignorance is what makes people afraid of anything, I don’t care what it is. And the people that are talking about chemicals and Hooker are ignorant as to what is really happening inside the plant.&#13;
&#13;
“I’ve always questions why more people from Hooker haven’t gone on TV and given their side, or our side, of what’s really going on inside the Hooker plant and explain to the general public what we’re doing now and have done. How do people find out? By just what we’re doing here now — you and me talking and explaining why people should be glad to have the Hooker plant here in Niagara Falls.”&#13;

The headline at the top reads in large bold letters: "A LOT OF WHAT'S BEING SAID... IT MAKES ME ANGRY." The footer of the poster reads "HOOKER CHEMICAL" with the tagline "Listen to the people who know." The layout is visually structured to deliver a persuasive corporate message defending the company, presented as a personal statement by an employee, specifically, by Hooker shift supervisor William (Bill) Crockett; photographed by Penelope D.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Ask Those Who Really Know!&#13;
&#13;
Ask the Victims of Love Canal why they need immediate permanent relocation, and why some will refuse to leave their motel rooms once funds are cut off.&#13;
Ask the innocent Victims of corporate profits, Hooker and Government negligence.&#13;
&#13;
The reasons are simple, We cannot lead a normal life, we&#13;
Cannot go in our basements because of contamination from Love Canal.&#13;
Cannot eat anything from our gardens because of soil contamination.&#13;
Cannot allow our children to play in our yards because of contaminated soils.&#13;
Cannot have our children attend a school in the area—two have been closed due to Love Canal contamination.&#13;
Cannot breathe the outside air—because of air contamination we are now in hotels.&#13;
Cannot become pregnant—miscarriage rate is State defined, 45% Homeowners survey, 75%.&#13;
Cannot have normal children—because of a 56% risk of birth defects.&#13;
Cannot sell our homes, Love Canal was not mentioned in our deeds,&#13;
who wants a contaminated house?&#13;
Cannot get a VA or FHA loan in Love Canal, even the government is reluctant.&#13;
Cannot have friends or relatives visit us on holidays, they’re scared it is unsafe.&#13;
Cannot have our pregnant daughters, or our grandchildren visit—it’s unsafe for them.&#13;
&#13;
We need your support and your help to end the suffering of men, women, and especially children of Love Canal. We have lost our constitutional rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Justice for all but not Love Canal Victims.&#13;
&#13;
We cannot live at Love Canal — We cannot leave Love Canal</text>

              <text>A HARD LOOK AT THE FACTS&#13;
&#13;
During the past year, some of the nation’s media have carried stories about the environmental problems at Hooker Chemical Company plants in various states. We wish to correct certain errors in these articles. Hooker’s president wrote a letter to the editor of the New York Times concerning statements in two recent articles. We publish this letter for those who did not see it when it was published in the Saturday, August 25th edition.&#13;
&#13;
Letter: on Chemical Wastes&#13;
&#13;
Hooker Was Not 'Careless'&#13;
&#13;
To the Editor:&#13;
&#13;
In answering your Aug. 9 editorial "Trying to be Fair About Poison," which followed the articles by Donald G. McNeil, Jr. about environmental problems at the Hooker Chemical Company, I am faced with dealing with what I can only assume is a serious misunderstanding on the part of the editorial writing of the facts and issues involved. Unfortunately, this misunderstanding has led the writer to make allegations about the conduct of our company that in some cases are plain wrong and in others unfair, to say the least.&#13;
&#13;
Space would not permit a point-by-point rebuttal of all the charges made in both the editorial and the McNeil articles, but let me deal with a few of the issues raised in the editorial that bear upon the point I am making.&#13;
&#13;
You suggest that our disposal practices at the Love Canal in the 1950s were "carless." They were not. They were considered "state-of-the-art" at the time. Furthermore, Hooker deeded the property to the school board for $1 over 25 years ago with the warning in the deed that chemicals were buried there and that Hooker would not be responsible for any injuries which might occur.&#13;
&#13;
You say Hooker knew for yeas that wastes were escaping from the Love Canal. Not so. You have confused some isolated incidents in the late 1950s, when some chemicals were uncovered after disturbance of the clay cap during ill-advised road construction, with the later and more serious issue of chemical migration, which we have reason to believe was due to the disturbance of the surface.&#13;
&#13;
A few children playing in the area were slightly burned by some of the chemicals. We investigated and advised the school board, which owned the property, to take precautionary measures so that there would be no further incidents.&#13;
&#13;
There was no evidence of chemicals seeping into homes back then; there wasn't any evidence of that happening until 1976.&#13;
&#13;
You say Hooker "top management" knowingly authorized pollution violations in its White Spring, Fla. facility. The charge is based on supposition and hardly jibes with Hooker top management's actions. When they learned of this situation, the unit was shut down immediately, and the violation was voluntarily reported to Federal and state authorities. The unit was restarted only after the company was certain its operation would be in full environmental compliance.&#13;
&#13;
I think you readers will agree, on the basis of the illustrative points I have raised, that we have reason to be concerned about the accuracy of your editorial. I am not saying that Hooker Chemical should not be concerned about the effects of some of its chemical disposal practices in the past, but I would like to point out that we believe our current waste disposal practices and our new management's attitude toward environmental responsibility are at least as good as anyone else's in industry. These are not just words. This year alone Hooker has more than 240 employees devoted ot environmental, health, and safety activities and will spend in excess of $40 million for environmental protection.&#13;

Hooker Chemical today has an experienced management team and a group of executives recruited from leaders in industry. We are working diligently, cooperating fully with appropriate agencies. We are committing our best efforts to make our company a future leader in environmental action.&#13;
&#13;
Zoltan Merszei, Occidental Petroleum Corporation’s President and Chief Operating Officer, with more than thirty years experience as a top executive with Dow Chemical Company, stated that “the practices of all industry must yield to the new scientific knowledge of environmental protection. We cannot judge yesterday's practices by today's rules. I will see to it that Hooker lives up to the highest environmental standards." Donald L. Baeder, President and Chief Operating Office of Hooker says that the company's policy is "to comply with the spirit as well as the letter of the law and where helpful, in the spirit of a good neighbor, to go beyond the requirements of the law."&#13;
&#13;
As stated in the letter reproduced above: “These are not just words. This year alone Hooker has more than 140 employees devoted to environmental, health and safety activities and will spend in excess of $40 million for environmental protection.”&#13;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

              <text>Try telling Bruce Davis that Hooker doesn't care about Niagara Falls.&#13;
&#13;
He's the man in charge of Hooker's Industrial Chemicals Group at Niagara Falls. And he's just one of several thousand Hooker employees who work fro Hooker in WEstern New York. Like the rest of the people at Hooker, Bruce Davis is darn proud to be part of the community.&#13;
&#13;
He is also concerned. Very concerned about all he's read and heard lately in the media about Hooker Chemicals and the environmental problems in the Niagara Falls area.&#13;
&#13;
But Bruce knows that while words (especially negative ones) can help attract T.V. viewers and sell newspapers, it takes more than words to solve problems. it takes action, Action and sometimes a great deal of money.&#13;
&#13;
And Bruce also knows that Hooker's action is speaking a lot louder than words on the subject of chemical waste.&#13;
&#13;
Action to the tune of millions of dollars: In 1977 Hooker spent more than $12 million in the Niagara Frontier for pollution control equipment to meet (and in many cases surpass) environmental regulations. Right now, Hooker is planning to spend many additional millions of dollars on new, environmentally-related control programs, expected to be in place between 1983 and 1985.&#13;
&#13;
Action to the tune of thousands of man hours: Hooker's Niagara Plant alone has forty full-time specialists working on its environmental program. Specialists who are advising and assisting city and county officials on remedial work at the Love Canal, as well as current Hooker landfills in the Niagara Falls area. The remedial work being done by Hooker at its landfill sites, as well as the restoration of the clay cap and other work at the Love Canal by the City are expected to ensure or restore the security and safety of these various sites.&#13;
&#13;
And landfills are just one area of the company's involvement. For instance, Hooker helped the City of Niagara FAlls in the design of its new wastewater treatment plant, and treats its own process water before it gets to the city plant (at a cost of one million dollars a year).&#13;
&#13;
In addition, Hooker is also building a new $70 million Energy-From-Waste plant that will use solid waste from a two-county area to produce steam for our Niagara plant. This new facility will not only help eliminate solid waste problems but also help improve our air quality by reducing sulfur emissions from fuel oil.&#13;
&#13;
You see, Bruce knows that Hooker Chemicals has been part of this community for almost 75 years. And he knows that Hooker is an extremely important and committed part of the Falls. How important? Well, in the last three years alone, Hooker has invested more than 200 million dollars in Niagara Falls.&#13;
&#13;
200 million dollars. That's a pretty solid investment. And Hooker plans on continuing it vital financial commitment to the entire Niagara Frontier, where the company employs 3,100 people at plants and facilities in Niagara Falls, Grand Island and North Tonawanda. When you get right down to it, you'd be hard pressed to find any group of people who care as much about the environmental and economic well-being of Niagara Falls as the people at Hooker.</text>

The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers.

              <text>HOOKER WILL INHERIT A GREAT DEAL FROM THESE EMPLOYEES.&#13;
THEIR FAMILIES.&#13;
&#13;
Marilyn Fitzsimmons, Clerk-Typist&#13;
“...As a clerk-typist I read all the goings on here at Hooker. The working conditions are very good and safety is excellent.&#13;
"...My children have applications in to work here. I'd love to see that because I know it's a safe place to work, and I wouldn't let my children work in an unsafe place. Not as a mother.&#13;
"...My children realize that benefits, safety, and good people make Hooker great. Working here will make it that much easier for them when it comes to raising their own families. Who knows? maybe their children will want to work here to..."&#13;
&#13;
Pam Harvey, Chemical Operator&#13;
"...One thing I've noticed about Hooker is that a lot of people working here have fathers and mothers who worked here. This company likes to carry on sort of a family tradition. It's a family atmosphere here. You get really close to each other. Hooker even gives family picnics for the parents and kids.&#13;
"...At my job I cover about five levels in the plant, so I do a lot of running. It's tough work, but I like the exercise.&#13;
"...I've known people who've worked for other chemical companies and they don't feel the same way I do. Their environment wasn't very good, not nearly as safe. You see, I want my kids to work in a nice place. And Hooker is just that."&#13;
&#13;
Selo Ferucci, Machinist and Maintenance Man. Retired after 40 years.&#13;
"...My father told me when I was young, 'You can't get something for nothing, Selo.' He worked at Hooker for 39 years. I know what he went through to raise our family. He worked hard. But he never complained. He never complained because Hooker was always good to him.&#13;
"...They've been good to me, too. And to a lot of our family. I've got a brother-in-law who's a rigger, and another who's an electrician.&#13;
"...I get sick of listening to the news. I know Hooker's had it rough. I don't think it's been fair. I know for a fact, they're spending a lot of money to help clean up pollution. That's 'cause Hooker gives a damn about Niagara, and the rest of the country.&#13;
"...My kids know my father and I have had it good here. If htye ever need a job, they know where to come. And maybe my grandchildren will feel the same way."</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

HOOKER IS DOROTHY’S SECURITY.&#13;
&#13;
“...I started at Hooker in ’65 as a chemical worker in caustic. I was there for a year-and-a-half, then they asked me to try Security. So I said, ‘Sure.’ I like the Security work much because it’s a responsible sort of a job. You’ve got to be conscientious, and always on your toes because you’re protecting the plant and the people you work with.”&#13;
“...One of the guards' responsibilities is to make sure people have all the protective gear on. In a way, I’m responsible for their health. That’s a lot of pressure, but I like it.&#13;
"...Without hooker Chemical, I think this town would be hurt badly. You see, Hooker is one of Niagara Falls geatest benefactors, and industry keeps this town going. It's our bread and butter.&#13;
"...People I know here think this is one of the best places to work in the Falls. that's because of all the benefits. We don't worry, because everything is covered. Hooker is always improving for the Community. They've spent millions to clean up the environment. I know that for a fact, I've lived here all my life. That's why I feel all the bad publicity in the past was uncalled for. I wish people would realize that so many things were untrue in the news and appreciate Hooker for the good company it is. Hooker means security to me..."</text>

She is standing with arms gesturing outward beneath a bold headline that reads: “DOROTHY THOMASON IS HOOKER’S SECURITY. HOOKER IS DOROTHY’S SECURITY.” Below the headline is a testimonial in paragraph form where Thomason discusses her responsibilities at Hooker Chemical, the importance of the company in her life, and her pride in the work and its role in the Niagara Falls community. The advertisement closes with the company tagline: “Hooker Chemical – Listen to the people who know"; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

              <text>On March 15th, Hooker held a press briefing at the Buffalo Statler Hilton. Here’s a report.&#13;
&#13;
Every one of man's activities produces waste of one kind or another. Whether we're driving a car, washing clothes or eating dinner, we produce wastes that can pollute our air, our water or our land. The production of chemicals is no exception.&#13;
&#13;
Solving the industrial disposal problem isn't simple. Hooker has been working for many years at the Niagara plant on ways to handle chemical wastes without harming or - damaging the environment.&#13;
&#13;
HERE’S WHAT WE’VE BEEN DOING.&#13;
&#13;
1. Reducing the volume of wastes. We have been doing this by redesigning our chemical processes to improve efficiency and produce less waste. We are also recycling materials to extract more chemicals the second time around. This also reduces waste. The second concept is to destroy certain toxic wastes bv incineration. This has the advantage of being an immediate solution as it does not involve either moving bulk materials or maintaining a land disposal site.&#13;
&#13;
2. As far back as 20 years ago, Hooker realized that burying liquid wastes was not the ideal method of disposal. It appeared that the only way to break down some chemicals was with heat, but the problem was that many of these chemicals were so stable, even when heated, that they were used to make fire-retardant fabrics and plastics. The Hooker engineers persisted, however, and eventually developed a high temperature incinerator that could break down the toxic liquids. This major technological breakthrough is a patented process and has been used by others as well as by Hooker.&#13;
&#13;
Since the incinerator was put into operation in 1961, more than 170,000 tons of toxic liquids have been destroyed, thus reducing the burden being placed on chemical landfill sites. Over the years many improvements have been made and we are now working on a process to destroy toxic solid wastes.&#13;
&#13;
3. These programs have achieved dramatic reductions in volume over the past few years. Of course, we must be careful to ensure that we do not create an air pollution problem when we neutralize solid or liquid wastes.&#13;
&#13;
This is an important part of our “project independence” in which we are trying to become self-sufficient in all aspects of waste disposal. The importance of this subject can be judged from the fact that chemical waste disposal from our Niagara plant alone costs us $200,000 each month. Some landfill sites, however, will still be necessary. Some chemicals or materials, such as fly ash, cannot be readily destroyed by heat and must be buried.&#13;
&#13;
4. In addition to reducing chemical waste and as a further indication of Hooker’s concern for the environment and the need to conserve energy we are building the largest privately-owned energy-from-waste facility in the USA. With an investment of more than $70-million, the plant will burn municipal garbage from Niagara and Erie counties and convert it into steam and electricity for use in our manufacturing operations. As a side venture, the company will also recycle steel scrap. The plant is scheduled to begin operation in the Spring of 1980.&#13;
&#13;
CHEMICALS &amp; TOXICITY&#13;
&#13;
Normal everyday activities expose people to many chemicals which could, in greater concentrations, be considered toxic. The harmful components of cigarette smoke have been detected in blood samples of non- smokers who have been breathing the air in a large room previously used by smokers. Nail polish remover and many household cleaners produce vapors that could present risks to some people.&#13;
&#13;
We have made great progress in our technical capability to detect minute, trace quantities of chemicals. As an example, we are now able to detect trace elements as minute as one part per trillion. In other weirds, we can identify and measure the vapors from a single drop of gasoline in a space the size of Rich Stadium.&#13;
&#13;
That will give you some idea of the magnitude of the task facing the New York Health Department. It is one thing to trace minute quantities of chemicals; it is another thing entirely, to decide what effects these traces have on living organisms. This is why the Department is intensifying its research into the problem and why it recently issued these statements with regard to Love Canal:&#13;
&#13;
"We cannot say with certainty that the higher rates found...are directly related to chemical exposure but the data do suggest a small but significant increase in the risk of miscarriages and birth defects. Although the magnitude of the additional risk to this population is indeed small, prudence dictates that we take a most conservative posture to minimize even that small additional risk."&#13;
&#13;
The Department said that studies to date did not document any increased incidence of liver disease, except among residents of the first two rings of homes which have been evacuated, nor was an increase noted in abnormal blood problems, except for some cases of iron deficiency anemia which were described as being fairly prevalent among the general population. The Department also said there was no evidence of toxicity related to exposure to benzene, a known cancer-causing agent. The data also failed to produce evidence of excess neurological disorders, including epilepsy, or cancer among current residents of the Love Canal area. The Department is continuing to collect and evaluate data.&#13;
&#13;
THE LOVE CANAL&#13;
&#13;
The Love Canal was considered an ideal site for chemical residues and other wastes, when it was used. It was in a sparsely populated area and the soil was impervious clay. At the time, it was not anticipated that the materials placed in such a site would leak out. Today's technology shows us how to make such a site even better. In addition to an impervious clay cap over the site to keep out the rain and snow, a drainage tile system is installed around the site to collect any liquid that might otherwise seep out, and a monitoring system to warn of any potential hazard.&#13;
&#13;
The Love Canal situation has been presented bv some as an example of corporate disregard for the environment. But does this charge stand up to the facts? Let’s see.&#13;
&#13;
When Hooker acquired the Love Canal as a landfill site, it had two ideal characteristics The ground was impervious clay which prevented the chemicals from draining away, and the whole area around the canal at the time Hooker began using it was sparsely settled.&#13;
&#13;
The sections of the canal we used were isolated as needed. The chemical wastes that had been hauled to the site in drums were then placed either in the old canal bed or a new excavation, and covered with several feet of the clay material.&#13;
&#13;
By 1952, the Board of Education of the City of Niagara Falls wanted the site for a school. As a result of the School Board's persistence, Hooker deeded the property in 1953 on condition that the deed include a clause warning of the past use, and under which the School Board assumed the risk for any damage that might result from the buried chemicals.&#13;
&#13;
The school was built adjacent to the central portion of the canal, the northern part was deeded to the City, and the southern portion eventually sold to a private developer in spite of a warning by Hooker management against construction on the site. With the school came the houses and soon the whole area had been developed, but no homes were built directly on the Love Canal property.&#13;
&#13;
Sometime over the years after Hooker deeded over the property, the clay covering was disturbed, apparently during the construction of homes or roads in the area. Water seeped into the canal and it gradually filled up just like a bathtub and overflowed. The water mixed with chemical wastes, producing a liquid called leachate which seeped into some basements of houses built on adjacent properties.&#13;
&#13;
Engineering consultants were called in and a plan of remedial work was established by local governments in the southern section in cooperation with State agencies. The program was to install a tile collection system on each side of the canal and to channel leachate into an underground tank from which it is pumped through a charcoal filter. Finally, the treated water is sent to the City waste treatment plant. After installation of the drainage tiles, a clay cover was laid to help prevent further formation of leachate.&#13;
&#13;
Although the property was not under Hooker control for 25 years, the company committed to help fund the engineering studies and also offered to contribute up to one-third of the original estimated total cost of the remedial work in the southern section. Hooker is continuing to provide technical assistance on these programs.&#13;
&#13;
The State authorities were concerned that the chemicals may have leaked out through the bottom of the canal into the groundwater. To check this, wells have been drilled on each side of the canal down into the bedrock. To date, no traces of chemical resi¬dues have been detected, but the water was found to contain Sulfide which occurs naturally throughout the area and makes the water unfit for drinking.&#13;
&#13;
THE HYDE PARK PROGRAM.&#13;
&#13;
Another area that has received a great deal of attention is the Hyde Park landfill site located in an industrialized section of the Town of Niagara. The site was acquired by Hooker in 1953 and received the chemical and other wastes from the Niagara plant after the Love Canal site was closed.&#13;
&#13;
During 1974 and 1975, the portion of the site used for burial of chemical wastes was closed out in accordance with plans reviewed by the State. A clay cap about two feet thick was installed, as was a leachate collection system. Leachate is collected in a holding lagoon for off-site disposal.&#13;
&#13;
New State and Federal regulations since introduced will require a thicker clay cap and an improved drainage tile system on all new chemical landfill sites. While these regulations do not presently apply to old sites no longer in use, Hooker already has voluntarily upgraded the Hyde Park site at the request of the State. In 1978, additional clay was placed over the entire site and a more efficient drainage system installed. This program also included improved pumping stations and a leachate collection pond. To date, building permits authorizing us to complete these facilities have not been granted by the Town of Niagara.&#13;
&#13;
Another part of the Hyde Park program was to determine if any chemicals were leaking into the groundwater. To do this monitoring, wells have been installed to different depths. The program is being conducted in cooperation with the New York Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and Department of Health.&#13;
&#13;
The natural drainage channel for this entire area is called "Bloody Run." There are signs of chemicals present in Bloody Run that have led us into a sophisticated program to determine their nature, source and extent. An accelerated testing program developed with various agencies is expected to provide analytical data as quickly possible. The program also includes surveying and contour mapping and the identification of pollutants that may be present in sediment. Soil samples at various depths will be taken over a wide area. The company already has reported finding trace quantities of dioxin in sub-surface sediment.&#13;
&#13;
In addition, we have sampled the water from the wells of the three residences in the area. Health authorities have said that the water is unfit because of a high bacteria content, possibly attributable to household septic systems in the area. We are expecting to complete our testing of the Bloody Run area by June, so that a possible plan of action, if necessary, can be submitted to the DEC for approval by July, 1979.&#13;
&#13;
WHATSAT 102ND STREET?&#13;
&#13;
The third site is known as the 102nd Street Landfill. The property acquired by Hooker in the 1940’s lies south of the Love Canal and is adjacent to the Niagara River. When we later acquired the Niagara Alkali and Oldbury Electrochemical companies in the mid- 1950s, we also acquired their landfill operations in the same area. Hooker now owns property from Griffin Park, which was the site of a former municipal landfill, and extending eastward to another industrial landfill site. Some chlorinated organic chemicals have been deposited at the site, but the majority of the material deposited there was inorganic wastes that are generally insoluble in water and should not pose a hazard.&#13;
&#13;
The site was closed in 1972 in accordance with a plan approved by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and responsible State and local agencies. A wall was built at the water’s edge and clay and soil were placed over the whole site.&#13;
&#13;
In 1978, in cooperation with the DEC, we developed a site survey plan and a well drilling program to determine the flow of groundwater and the extent of any possible chemical migration. This program will be started this summer, the test samples analyzed, and any necessary remedial action will be submitted for approval so that any required work may start early in l980.&#13;
&#13;
HOOKER’S NIAGARA PLANT.&#13;
&#13;
Aerial photographs taken 1938 showed the Niagara River shoreline at the plant to be very different from what it is today. Over the years, land was reclaimed from the river by the use of fly ash, slag and municipal waste This land was purchased by Hooker in 1947 and became known as the "N" and "S” areas. The sites were used by Hooker for the disposal of chemical residues, and afterwards as a staging area where drums of wastes were collected prior to being sent to landfills.&#13;
&#13;
The "S" area is located across the sheet from the City’s water treatment plant. It should he emphasized, how¬ever, that the water distributed to the homes in Niagara Falls is regularly tested by City and State agencies and has been found to be a better quality than most cities In the U.S.&#13;
&#13;
In the Summer of 1978, the City sent divers down into the shore shaft of the water treatment plant on a routine inspection and maintenance check. A sediment sample brought to the surface was analyzed and found to contain various chemicals, some of which are made by Hooker. The problem then was to identify how the chemicals could have reached the treatment plant.&#13;
&#13;
Recent excavations at the water treatment plant were examined but no trace of chemical contamination was found. We are now in the process of drilling and installing test holes around the Niagara plant and the water treatment plant in an effort to determine the flow of groundwater and to discover the possible source and route of the chemicals. Even old unused sections of the water treatment plant have been tested, but no more chemicals haw been discovered. Again, it should be pointed out, that the water supply is being regularly tested and continues to maintain a high level of quality and purity.&#13;
&#13;
3,500 GROUNDWATER SAMPLES.&#13;
&#13;
Testing simples is a very complex, time-consuming operation. There are very few laboratories in the country with the equipment or the expertise to do the reliable and rigorous analytical work necessary. Our own test laboratories are working at capacity. So, to keep the program moving, we are using other qualified laboratories as far away as Wisconsin, Texas and California to do the very complicated analyses.&#13;
&#13;
In the first quarter of 1979, alone, we will analyze over 3,500 samples of groundwater from four disposal sites. During 1979, we estimate that we will be spending $1 million just for sample analyses. This figure includes not only tests at the landfill sites, but also the regular testing of the water discharges into the river after it has been used for indirect cooling at our Niagara plant.&#13;
&#13;
THE WAY AHEAD.&#13;
&#13;
The program that we have just discussed was made necessary by actions that were taken many years ago. These actions were not irresponsible. Some of our actions, with the benefit of hindsight, may have had a negative effect on the environment. Government regulations are only now being developed on the whole complex subject and are not expected to be adopted until 1980. Meanwhile, we are moving ahead with program designed to meet the standards of the future.&#13;
&#13;
One of the first federal programs was the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) under the Clean Water Act. This is a permit system governing the discharge of effluent into navigable waters. Our Niagara plant is periodically examined by State officials and pollution control devices and elaborate monitoring aids are installed to ensure that the discharge limits of specific chemicals named in permits is not exceeded.&#13;
&#13;
As an example, the cooling water used in the plant is discharged at five locations. The permit not only regulates properties such as temperature and suspended solids, but also limits the quantity of specific organic chemicals. Individual chemicals of special concern are limited to about 2 lbs. total, which is like trying to find the proverbial "needle in a haystack" in the more than 50,000,000 gallons of water used in our plant every day.&#13;
&#13;
MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR POLLUTION CONTROL PROGRAMS.&#13;
&#13;
A spill control program is designed not only to try and prevent spillage of dangerous chemicals but to contain any spills until they are cleaned up. Dykes are built around all possible spill locations and sumps are being constructed to collect the chemicals that might accidentally leak out. The chemicals can then be pumped out for proper disposal. This has been coupled with an extensive education program at the workplace to prevent spills and a stepped-up equipment maintenance program. The total cost is about $3 million and is being spread over a three-year period. About one-half of the work has already been done.&#13;
&#13;
New processes and equipment are constantly being developed to be more energy efficient, cleaner to operate, require less maintenance and to improve the product quality, and to help maintain Hooker’s competitive position.&#13;
&#13;
There were, however, some chemical processes that could not be modified sufficiently to meet the new environmental quality requirements at costs that would permit us to compete in the marketplace, and these have been closed down.&#13;
&#13;
WHAT ELSE NEEDS TO BE SAID?&#13;
&#13;
We’ve given you the substance of what we told local reporters on March 15th.&#13;
Maybe you'd like to know more about us or want to give us your own views on what we had to say.&#13;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

              <text>There have been charges and allegations that Hooker Chemicals “covered up” knowledge of health hazards at the Love Canal site 20 years ago. These charges are not true.&#13;
&#13;
Here are the facts. In the late 1950s, there was some construction over the Love Canal site. And some of the buried chemicals were disturbed. Children playing in the construction area were burned by some of the chemicals and were treated accordingly.&#13;
&#13;
We looked into the problem and advised the School Board, who owned the property, to take precautionary measures so that there would be no further accidents.&#13;
&#13;
Did we know the chemicals were hazardous? We knew they could cause burns and that some of what was buried in the Love Canal site could be poisonous. But we did not have—nobody had—the knowledge of toxicity then that they have now.&#13;
&#13;
One more thing. The main problem with the Love Canal site was chemicals seeping into the basements of homes bordering the Canal aea. There was no evidence of this happening back in the 50s; Hooker management had no evidence of this until 1976.&#13;
&#13;
There was no cover-up in the 50s. There isn't one now. But there is a problem at the Love Canal and Hooker is very much concerned about it and wants to see it solved. Sensationalism and false accusations won't do that.&#13;
&#13;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Another person in a red shirt stands nearby holding a plate. In the background, a third person is partially visible through a doorway, making a peace sign gesture with both hands and smiling widely.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A television news crew, including a camera operator, a sound technician with a microphone, and a reporter are recording an interview on the sidewalk with Love Canal homeowners and community activists Al and Marie Posniak in front of their one-story home with tan siding.  Marie wears a T-shirt that reads "LOVE CANAL – Another Product from Hooker Chemical." A green pickup truck is parked in the driveway, and another person is partially visible seated in the doorway of the house.  A microphone bag and audio equipment are placed on the ground beside the kneeling technician. The scene takes place during daylight; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Lois Gibbs stands at a wooden podium with a microphone, flanked by three others behind her. One banner in the background reads "Town of Niagara Fire D[epartment]" with additional text suggesting a local context in Niagara County, New York. In the foreground, several individuals, including Adeline Levine (at far right) are seated at a table with cups and papers with some of them clapping while listening to the speaker; photographed by Penelope D.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Both are wearing white T-shirts that read "LOVE CANAL Another Product from HOOKER CHEMICAL." Lois Gibbs has long curly hair adorned with a red and white floral decoration and is looking to the side; Marie Posniak, also with curly hair and glasses, appears to be engaged in conversation. A small camera and a white cup are visible on the table in the foreground. The setting suggests a community or activist meeting space; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>Three attendees standing indoors against a dark background at the  at the Love Canal Homeowners Association Active Hose Dinner Dance on May 31, 1980. All three are wearing white T-shirts that read "LOVE CANAL – Another Product From HOOKER CHEMICAL" in bold text with a green heart symbol replacing the letter “O” in “LOVE.” The man on the left is smiling with arms resting casually; the man in the center has curly hair and a mustache and is pointing with one hand; the man on the right is Al Posniak who is facing forward with a neutral expression. The setting is  a dimly lit interior space with minimal visible furnishings; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Two of them are clearly visible, both wearing white T-shirts that read "LOVE CANAL – Another Product From HOOKER CHEMICAL" with a green heart symbol in place of the “O” in “LOVE.”.  Lois Gibbs (at center) is smiling and holding a cup, while Adeline Levine (at left) looks in her direction and is wearing a jacket and scarf.  Stephen U. Lester (at right) is only partially visible and is also smiling. Behind them, multiple people are dancing or conversing in a dimly lit room at the Love Canal Homeowners Association Active Hose Dinner Dance fundraiser held on May 31, 1980.  A red chair and several white cups are also visible on the table; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Both are wearing white T-shirts with the text "LOVE CANAL – Another Product From HOOKER CHEMICAL" and a green heart symbol replacing the “O” in “LOVE.” Adeline (at left) wears a navy windbreaker over her T-shirt and large glasses, with a checkered scarf around her neck. A clear plastic pitcher and cup sit on the table in front of them. Murray Levine (at right) is also wearing glasses, has short dark hair peppered with grey and a beard.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>Love Canal resident and activist Marie Posniak is seated indoors at the Love Canal Homeowners Association Active Hose Dinner Dance fundraiser held on May 31, 1980.  She is silhouetted against a dark background and is wearing a white T-shirt with the text “LOVE CANAL – Another Product From HOOKER CHEMICAL.”  The green heart graphic replaces the “O” in “LOVE.” Marie has short curly dark hair, is wearing large round glasses, and is resting her chin lightly on her hand. Only part of the surrounding environment is visible due to the low lighting; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A group of uniformed police is seen spraying water from a hose onto a burnt patch of debris on a paved street.  A TV news vehicle is parked in the background, with "TV 8 WJW" marked on its trunk. Several onlookers, some standing on the sidewalk and others further back on the grass, observe the scene. One person is holding a handwritten protest sign. The scene documents the protest or public demonstration by the Love Canal Homeowners Association targeting the federal government and the Jimmy Carter administration held outside the Niagara Falls, New York Department of Health building on April 17, 1979 that resulted in the burning of effigies of the U.S. President and his family; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A crowd of people, including multiple media personnel with large cameras and microphones, gathered on a street to document a protest. In the foreground, an effigy is engulfed in flames on the pavement. Some protesters hold handwritten signs in the background, while others observe or photograph the scene. A person in a dark suit stands prominently near the fire, holding a recording device. The demonstration appears to be orchestrated and well-documented; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

In the background, a group of people gathers closely, some holding protest signs and others equipped with professional video cameras and microphones. Several media personnel film and document the event, while a white motorcycle is parked to the right. The crowd appears to be part of an organized demonstration, set in a green, tree-lined public area; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A burning effigy is engulfed in flames in the foreground of a street. A group of people, including demonstrators and media personnel with cameras and microphones, stand in the background near a white motorcycle. Many individuals appear to be protesting, some clapping or raising their arms. The gathering takes place in a shaded, tree-lined area under daylight, likely during a demonstration related to environmental or public health concerns; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A group of protesters stands on a street and sidewalk, holding handwritten signs during a daylight demonstration outside the Niagara Falls, New York Department of Health building.   A partially visible burning effigy lies on the ground in the lower left corner, with visible flames. People of various ages, including children, are present. One protester holds a sign that reads “Lois says let my people go,” while others hold signs mentioning Hooker Chemical. A person wearing an ABC news hat is visible among the group, indicating media coverage; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A group of demonstrators stands on a street during a midday protest rally.  In the foreground, a person is bending down near several life-sized effigies arranged on the pavement, some of which are dressed in patterned clothing. Another person stands nearby holding a cigarette or match, possibly preparing to ignite the effigies. Several members of the media are present in the background, including individuals with video cameras and microphones. A bicycle wheel is partially visible on the left edge of the image. The setting is a residential area with houses and a multi-story parking garage in the background; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A group of people stands on a grassy area holding protest signs related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. Several individuals wear white t-shirts with the slogan "Love Canal: Another Product from Hooker Chemical." The signs read messages like “We Are Love Canal Boat People,” “Permanent Total Relocation,” and “Love Canal National Shame.” In the foreground, life-sized effigies dressed in clothing are laid out on the grass. A young child with hands over his eyes stands among the protesters, and part of a media vehicle or equipment is visible at the bottom edge of the frame. Trees and a building are in the background; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A group of protesters stands on a sidewalk near a "Dead End" street sign during a Love Canal demonstration. Several individuals wear t-shirts reading “LOVE CANAL Another Product from HOOKER CHEMICAL.” One person holds a sign that reads “WE ARE Love Canal Boat People,” while another sign says “LOVE CANAL: NATIONAL SHAME.” Two children are visible in the foreground, one seated in a stroller and another standing nearby. Protest signs are partially visible on the left side, and a television news camera with a mounted light is also present. A building is visible in the background; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>Three effigies lie on the grass as part of a Love Canal protest. One effigy wears a sign reading “President Carter GOD,” and another smaller effigy has a sign reading “Amy Carter.” A person in a red shirt is crouched and leaning over the effigies, while another person’s legs are partially visible behind the sign. Protest materials and media equipment are visible in the background on the lawn; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A group of people stand on a grassy area holding protest signs related to Love Canal outside the Niagara Falls, New York Department of Health building.  Several individuals wear white shirts with “Love Canal: Another Product from Hooker Chemical” printed on them.  A yellow “Dead End” street sign is prominently visible in the background.  One person in the foreground, facing away from the camera, holds a notepad, possibly a journalist or organizer. The atmosphere suggests a daytime public demonstration; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A person wearing a “Love Canal: Another Product From Hooker Chemical” T-shirt stands on a grassy area next to a child wearing a shirt labeled “JUSTIN.” They are near three life-sized effigies laid out on the grass, including one with a caricature mask resembling U.S. President Jimmy Carter. Signs on the effigies and ground read “Get Hooker,” “President Carter GOD,” and other protest messages. The image captures a moment from a public demonstration held outside the Niagara Falls, New York Department of Health building on April 17, 1979. Trees and shrubbery form the background under a clear sky; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Another individual in a red and blue vest is partly visible in the foreground. The protest setting includes surrounding trees and clear weather; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>Mayor Michael C. O'Laughlin of Niagara Falls, New York stands at the center of a dimly lit stage holding a small child, positioned in front of a closed beige curtain. Several protest signs are displayed at the base of the stage, with messages such as "WILL I SEE AGE 7?", "HELP! Give our newborns a chance", and "I LOVE NY — WHAT A GREAT POLLUTION." Audience members are visible in the foreground, seated and facing the stage. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

They hold protest signs with various messages such as “TAX US ON VALUE,” “NO NO’s: No Basement, No Garden, No Air, Just Chemicals,” “GOVERNOR CAREY ONLY MAKES PROMISES,” and “YOU GIVE AID TO  FOREIGN COUNTRIES.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers.

                <text>Several people are gathered on a shaded sidewalk, holding protest signs expressing environmental and health concerns. One sign reads, “WILL I BE ABLE TO HAVE A NORMAL BABY,” held by a seated child. Another large sign lists “Things Our City Fathers Have Done” with question marks. The group includes adults and children, some engaged in conversation. The protest appears to be taking place in a residential or municipal area, with trees and a few buildings visible in the background. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

One prominently held sign reads, "IF THE MAYOR WANTS THE DIGGING TO BEGIN, HE CAN MOVE IN HERE AND MOVE OUT!" Other visible signs include phrases like "Save our Children" and "Give me a home where the children don’t die." The scene is crowded, and expressions are serious, reflecting concern and urgency.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Visible protest signs include phrases like “City fathers sit idle as usual” and “YOU GIVE AID TO Foreign Countries, Why NOT US.” A child in the foreground, wearing a red hat, carries a sign made from cardboard. Other participants and signs are visible in the background, with some people standing and others walking. The setting appears to be in a residential or civic area with trees and a few cars nearby.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>Love Canal activist Lois Gibbs stands beside a desk, holding a corded telephone to their ear while reaching for another phone. The room appears dimly lit, with protest signs or messages posted in the background and taped to the window. The desk is cluttered with cups, papers, and office supplies. Another seated person is partially visible in the foreground, facing the camera. The setting resembles a grassroots office or organizing space. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A chain-link fence with a yellow diamond-shaped sign and sidewalk in the foreground encloses a residential area. Beyond the fence is the intersection of 97th Street and Frontier Avenue, marked by two street signs. Several two-story houses, mostly white and brown, are visible, all with windows and doors boarded up. The sky is clear and blue, and the area appears unoccupied. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

A "Dead End" road sign and a black-and-white striped directional barrier with left and right arrows stand at the edge of the street. Power lines crisscross the upper portion of the scene, and trees and other similar houses are visible in the background. The setting appears quiet and vacant. Photographed by Penelope D.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>View of 97th Street as seen from Wheatfield Avenue in the Love Canal neighborhood, Niagara Falls, New York showing a chain-link fence that spans the quiet residential street, blocking access.  Attached to the fence is a yellow traffic sign with double arrows pointing left and right, along with several diamond-shaped warning markers. A sidewalk and grass run along both sides of the road, and a few single-story houses and trees are visible in the background under a blue sky with scattered clouds. Utility poles and wires line the street. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

A line of evenly spaced metal fence posts runs parallel to the road, with no fencing yet attached.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

A stop sign stands on the right at the edge of an intersection, where the pavement is wet from recent rain. Two black-and-white striped barrier posts divide the entry to the street. Multiple parked cars are visible in driveways and along the curb. Power lines crisscross the sky above. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D.

A person is seen walking close to the fence, reaching toward it. Behind the fence, there is a well-kept residential yard with a white house and trees. The lighting has a reddish hue, possibly due to the photographic film or processing. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A rectangular protest sign lies flat in tall grass. The sign is handwritten in large block letters, though much of the writing is faded or obscured. Parts of the message are faintly visible, suggesting a personal statement that begins with "MY NAME IS" and references to suffering and home. The overall red hue of the image distorts color accuracy, making the text hard to decipher. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A protest sign is displayed outdoors in front of an abandoned Love Canal house against a backdrop of a wooden picket fence and trees with autumn foliage. The sign, written in red letters on a wooden board, states “PROPERTY VALUE ZERO TAXES 700,” criticizing high taxes despite low property value. The image has a strong red color cast that reduces overall contrast and visibility of finer details. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A row of single-story abandoned residential houses is seen through a chain-link fence in the foreground at the Love Canal Chemical Waste Landfill site, Niagara Falls, New York.  The homes are shaded, with closed windows and no visible activity. The ground in front of the fence appears unkempt, with patches of dirt and grass. The scene suggests restricted access or abandonment; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                <text>A small stream curves through a landscape of bare trees and shrubs, with muddy banks and sparse vegetation near the Love Canal Chemical Waste Landfill site, Niagara Falls, New York.

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

The front door and windows are covered with plywood boards, indicating the house is abandoned. The yard is overgrown with tall grass and weeds. A concrete driveway leads to a detached garage, which also appears boarded up. A second house with similar characteristics is visible in the background, adding to the sense of neighborhood-wide disuse. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

On the right side of the street, a row of single-story homes is partially enclosed by a chain-link fence which is part of the Love Canal Chemical Landfill site, Niagara Falls, New York. Leafless trees line both sides of the street, and telephone poles with overhead wires run parallel to the road. There are no visible people or vehicles, and the scene has a subdued, somber tone.

                <text>A suburban residential street is captured on a sunny day, with a school bus visible far in the distance near the end of the road dropping off kids at 99th and Frontier Streets, Niagara Falls, New York. Both sides of the street are lined with single-story houses and green lawns. Numerous utility poles and overhead power lines run along the road. The pavement shows signs of wear with visible cracks, and there are no pedestrians or parked cars in the foreground. The scene appears calm and orderly. Photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This collection consists of photographs, maps, and posters related to the Love Canal environmental disaster. The Love Canal Images collection forms part of the Love Canal Collection in the University Archives of Special Collections. The University at Buffalo holds the premier collection on Love Canal, the country's most notorious and infamous hazardous waste site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love Canal is perhaps the best known and most documented event of that time period. The vast collection of materials in Special Collections at the University at Buffalo Libraries includes both government and non-government, corporate and private materials that all contribute to the telling of this unfortunate and chilling story. Check the University at Buffalo's &lt;a href="http://library.buffalo.edu/specialcollections/lovecanal/"&gt;Love Canal website&lt;/a&gt; for information about the Love Canal collections available for use by students and other researchers. Explore images from the Penelope D. Ploughman Love Canal collection by location through the &lt;a href="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/05bb60736810480b871b653399cda1bd"&gt;Love Canal StoryMap&lt;/a&gt;, an interactive Geographic Information System (GIS) map that pinpoints the location of the photograph on a map of the Love Canal neighborhood. Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases and Interlibrary Resources Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
