Document Description
15-year renewal of a previously approved rock quarry surface mining permit. The project includes a Conditional Use Permit, Surface Mining Permit, Reclamation Plan, and review of financial assurance cost estimates for a surface mining operation involving an upland rock quarry with a proposed total extraction of 100,000 cubic yards over a 15-year period from an open pit mine. Two methods of surface rock removal will be used: 1) mass rock removal from the rockfields, and 2) selective removal of soil and rock generally from forested areas surrounding the rock fields. Equipment to be used includes a loader, cat and excavator. The operation will also involve boulder blasting, and material will be hauled by truck.
