Work on Yeager Hillside Begins Today

Work is scheduled to begin today on removing part of the manmade hillside at Yeager Airport that collapsed earlier this year, after a Kanawha County Circuit judge’s ruling. The material collected from the site has to be stored in the same place and all parties involved in the lawsuit must be notified before any testing of the material is done. Yeager also announced on Saturday that executive director Rick Atkinson will resign, effective today.
