The Alliance for a Clean Environment (ACE) recordsThis collection documents the environmental activism of the Alliance for a Clean Environment (ACE), a grassroots environmental advocacy group formed in Pottstown, Pennsylvania in 1995. The records chronicle the history of specific environmental health concerns in the southeastern Pennsylvania region, such as exposure to toxins through radiation and landfills. The records are focused on four topics: administrative information about the organization; information on the fight against the Pottstown Landfill; information on the fight against the Occidental Chemical plant; information on the fight against Limerick Nuclear Power Plant. Included are organization correspondence, dossiers on campaigning politicians, studies they requisitioned from independent scientists, permit and violation information, reports from the different sites, strategic plans, and promotional materials. Researchers may be particularly interested in the nearly 80 VHS cassettes and DVDs of The ACE Report. The Ace Report was broadcast via the local public access channel from 2000 to 2012. It provided scientific information, expert opinions, and legislative updates to Pottstown residents.
