Archeological work carried out at Harmony Borax Works in Death Valley during the fall of 1976 was prompted by proposed management activities which include stabilization of ruins and replacement of fencing. Harmony Borax Works was the central feature in the opening of Death Valley and the subsequent popularity of the Furnace Creek area. The plant and associated townsite played an important role in Death Valley history.
