The gravel extraction operations consist of the harvest of gravel, rock, and sand

Extraction is by one or more of the following methods: skimming, horseshoe pits, alcoves, wet or dry trenches, and/or wetland pits. Extraction during 2019 is anticipated to occur at five gravel bars: Scotia Dam Bar, Lower Truck Shop Bar, Dinner Creek Bar, Three Mile, and Elinor Bar.
