R. Brown Construction Company's Modification to Conditional Use Permit (CUP), Surface Mining Permit, and Reclamation Plan for an upland rock quarry surface mining operation. The modification seeks to expand t he area of mining operation by adding an additional 39 acres to be mined (in addition to the existing 25-acre mining area). This includes areas that will be mined for rock and areas that will be used for topsoil and overburden storage. The Reclamation Plan is r vised to show that the total area to be reclaimed is 64 acres. Rock of various sizes will continue to be mined, with an estimated volume of 4 million tons of hard rock over the life of the mine. Mining and overburden fill have already occurred on approximately 25 acres of the parcel.
