GETTYSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA-- July 1-3, 1863
THREAT: Many historical significant sites are still outside boundaries of the military park. A Comfort Suites Motel under construction on Cemetery Hill adjacent to Evergreen Cemetery.
Gettysburg Country Club, site of Confederate attacks on McPherson Ridge, has gone bankrupt. Who knows what will be built there.
MONOCACY, MARYLAND-- July 9, 1864
Officials in Frederick County are considering having a waste-to-energy facility built near Worthington Farm near the Monocacy River. The proposed 350-foot smokestack will be easily viewed from the whole battlefield. The site will be only a few hundred yards from from the park.
