NOTE TO EDITORS: 
NASA ASKS FOR HELP IN ARIZONA, NEVADA, NEW MEXICO UTAH

 NASA is asking citizens and officials in Arizona,
Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah for help to find material from
the Space Shuttle Columbia. The material would have fallen
from the Shuttle as it was reentering Earth atmosphere
along a line stretching generally from San Francisco to
Lafayette, La. Everyone is asked to be on the lookout for
possible Shuttle material 60 miles north or south of the
reentry track, particularly in the following counties:

Arizona: Apache, Navajo, Coconino, Mohave

Nevada: Lincoln

New Mexico: San Juan, Kane, Beaver; and

Utah: Washington, Iron, San Juan, Garfield.

Anyone who finds material, suspected to be from the Shuttle,
is urged to avoid contact, because it may be hazardous due to
fuel residue. Report such material by calling, toll-free

1-866-446-6603

Citizens are reminded Shuttle material may not look like
typical aircraft components. Pictures of examples of Shuttle
debris may be viewed at

All debris is U.S. Government property and is critical to the
investigation of the mishap. Debris from the accident should
be left in place and reported to Government authorities.
Unauthorized persons found in possession of accident debris
will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
