Document Description
In January 2000, an application for a Surface Mining Permit was submitted to the Modoc County Planning Department by Fitch Sand and Gravel, Inc. The application requested the approval of a new mining operation located in a rural area northeast of the City of Alturas. The proposed operation consists of hard-rock mining, sand and gravel extraction and the processing of construction aggregates on leased properties. The application proposes active mining for approximately 30 years and the reclamation of all disturbed land in phases, resulting in a ultimate end use of rangeland.
