NASA Warned to Halt Goddard Closures; But Building 11 Is Next

On Monday, November 10, Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), ranking Democrat on the House Science, Space and Technology Committee, sent a letter to National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Acting Administrator Sean Duffy demanding that NASA “halt any and all laboratory, facility and building closure and relocation activities at Goddard as well as the relocation, disposal, excessing or repurposing of any specialized equipment or mission-related capabilities, hardware and systems, and it must do so now.” Our sources say more closures were underway Wednesday.

Furloughed Workers Recalled To Clear Buildings at Goddard

The shutdown is supposed to pause all non-essential work by government employees but while NASA usually furloughs 80 to 90 percent of its workers, Greenbelt’s Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) continues to hum with activity, including executing controversial directives critics say are illegal. Clearing of buildings on the campus and “divesting” of labs and equipment from those buildings is being carried out while most staff, media and the public are unable to access the facilities. Emails shared with the News Review and statements from GSFC federal workers show some are being recalled specifically to clean out buildings and participate in moves, as the center continues vacating buildings on the west side of its campus.

Standpipe Issues of Lead, Noise Arise at Council Worksession

At its October 15 worksession, Greenbelt City Council heard a Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission (WSSC) report on renovation of the current standpipe (also referred to as the water tower) at Lastner Lane and Ridge Road. With preliminaries complete and a contractor on board, WSSC now expects to move ahead in November. The tower dates from 1936 and is about 83’ tall and 69’ in diameter and holds approximately two million gallons. It will be stripped of previous coatings inside and out and recoated. Ancillary equipment and storage will be replaced and controls updated.

Celebrating 80 Years in Print

Just six weeks after the first 197 families moved into Greenbelt on November 24, 1937, 19 volunteers from the Journalistic Club launched the Greenbelt Cooperator. That is the beginning of the story for the longest running cooperative weekly newspaper in the United States. Known now as The Greenbelt News Review, the paper is published by the Greenbelt Cooperative Publishing Association, Inc. It has been published weekly without interruption since that time and is delivered free to most Greenbelt residents.
