Document Description
The proposed quarry project is located on 688 acres near the Vernalis area, in southwestern San Joaquin County. Approximately 590 acres of the proposed quarry will be located in San Joaquin County, the remaining 98 acres are located in Stanislaus County. The applicants are proposing a sand and gravel quarry that is expected to generate more than 100 million tons of sand and gravel over the 60 year period that the quarry is expected to operate. The project will be mined in nine phases with reclamation being completed two years after the completion of mining for each phase. The project will have an on-site processing plant and concrete batch plant. The project site is currently in agriculture, as orchard and row crops. The applicant indicates that once mining is complete the property will be reclaimed to agriculture and open space.
