The Governator closed the Ref stations until the budget got signed as a means of saving dough. All us state agencies have recieved mandatory cutbacks this year. Once he signed the budget, the Ref's were re-opened.

"Possibly", so far the bond sale is going well. They may hedge bets by scheduling weeklong program closures once a month in the coming months, and pushing the cost to later in the fiscal year that way. Our program is already scheduled to be closed Dec 24-26th. We've met our budget cut goal already this year so we're not at much risk to lose anything.

bob chan the ref at alameda is an amazing tech aswell as being a long time ref
your guaranteed FAIR treatment also dan crozier who is at ever green occaisionally but based at salinas is a top notch tech.

you can also drive in now and get in without an appointment at a few of the stations salinas being one

unfortunatly for the ref's themselves they are forced onto unemployment when the shops are shut down
