During its first years of operation, Carey Salt Company offered tours, especially to school children. They stopped offering tours in the 1960s, and there was no public access to the salt mines until KUSM opened six years ago.

The Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) came to Hutchinson in 1958 to perform tests to see if the mine was a suitable place to dispose of materials. They tested for about ten years but decided it wasn't the right spot.
