Nutshell Summary

Welcome Lessons Learned Nutshell Summary

Mile High Overview

We believe that given the present worldwide economic conditions, historical disaster evidence, and the obvious signs of global climate changes; that it is prudent to have a "disaster plan and shelter" in place should a need for it occur.

Our designs include planning for: physical protection, psychological design considerations, advanced technology, and the concept of an extended family with diverse backgrounds.

We are not looking for stereotypical "survival nuts" portrayed in movies, but rather like-minded individuals with the desire to provide care and protection for their family. We seek people with the financial resources, interest, education, experience, and desire to participate in the shared tasks of survival under difficult circumstances. We want people with good values and we will screen applicants for criminal backgrounds.

To accomplish these goals we have acquired an Atlas "F" missile silo through the Formerly Used Defense Site (FUDS) program and the site has been examined and tested by the State of Kansas, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the Environmental Protection Agency and was declared safe for development. We have removed all the old infrastructure from the silo and completed the conceptual design and preparation work. We are ready to start construction and we anticipate the facility will be complete by September 2010.

Cool Facts About the Project

Only 72 Atlas "F" Missile Silos were built by the Army Corps of Engineers.
These were the most "hardened" structures built and were designed to survive a direct nuclear strike.
The upper section of the silo has epoxy-hardened concrete walls that are 9 feet thick.
The Monolithic Dome that will cover the silo cap can withstand winds in excess of 500 MPH.
The completed facility will have more than 40,000 square feet of protected space.
The facility is designed to sustain 50 people for more than five years.
The overall design finishings are "Ultra Modern" except the general store which is "Country".
One of the silo doors is operational, that single door weighs 75 tons (150,000 lbs.) and opens inside the monolithic dome.
