What on Earth? # 85: County Exclave

The area on the images below that is bounded by a roughly triangular border is an exclave of a county.

For one point per question:

1. What county is it a part of?

2. The creation of what new county caused this triangle to become an exclave?

3. What was the name of the colossal and secret government operation that drove the creation of the exclave?
