6A Displaced Workers Success Story
I really enjoy my job at The Oak Ridge National
Recycle Center. It feels like I have started yet
another career.
- Jim took an early retirement at the end of 1994
following almost 29 years of service as an
electrician and instrument technician. - He worked at all three plant sites in Oak Ridge
during those years, and held a Q Clearance for 25
years. - Now employed at The Oak Ridge National Recycle
Center, Jim offers a wealth of experience and
expertise.

Wisconsin to be environmentally sound and safe - We plan to begin making these bricks in Oak Ridge
