Tonight’s topics included: Most of the discussion tonight was centered around the winter storm that blew into the South Coast during the late evening of January 4th that likely precipitated the catastrophic failure of Tower #1 at SBARC’s Talanian Communications Facility that evening. Fortunately, SBARC members were able to clear the debris, dismantle the fallen tower and restore many of the services that had been knocked out by the collapse. See more info at www.SBARC.org.
