MRF

The Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) assists Placer County jurisdictions with achieving state mandated waste diversion goals while achieving an economy of scale for material diversion and providing uniformity in waste diversion and recycling programs. The MRF was designed and is operated to: 1) recover recyclable materials from mixed waste; 2) process green and wood wastes for composting or biomass; 3) receive and process source-separated recyclables, and 4) provide for receipt and recycling/disposal of HHW. Materials not recovered via MRF processing are disposed in the Western Regional Sanitary Landfill.

“Operation Frequent Wind”

WAS there! DID that!!

 The Actual End of the Vietnam War

American POWs were released in February 1973 and deployed troops came home, but the actual fall of Saigon to communist forces was two years later on April 30, 1975, officially ending the nine-year Vietnam conflict.

48 years later, this week’s speaker will tell us about being on the legendary aircraft carrier, U.S.S. Enterprise (CVN-65) and the craziness of rescuing nearly 7,000 ‘boat people’ evacuees who risked their lives to avoid living under communism.

Commander Tim Pinkney, USN (ret.) was a Lieutenant Junior Grade (0-2) at the time flying the Navy’s super sophisticated airborne electronic countermeasures jamming aircraft, the EA-6BProwler.

Pinkney retired in 1990 after serving as Commanding Officer of the Electronic Warfare Squadron Three Zero Nine (VAQ-309) known as the Axemen.
