The Fort Knox Qualified Recycle Program gave a tour Oct. 26 to students from the environmental science class of Central Texas College's Fort Knox campus to explain the operational side of recycling at Fort Knox. The tour included the metal department where scrap metals were separated by alloys and the cardboard and paper pits where products are bailed and prepped for shipment to vendors.
