Title

Pilarcitos Quarry Minor Expansion

Description

The applicant is proposing to modify its existing permits to mine the area known as the Pilarcitos Quarry. The modification will allow expansion of mining operations onto a 9.2-acre area immediately adjacent to existing mining operations. Current quarry operations involve surface mining of weathered, fractured granite and the production of gravel and sand. No expansion of the processing area or additional equipment is proposed. The applicant is not requesting an increase in the number of truck trips currently allowed for under the existing permits. The applicant is proposing this expansion because the usable material within the existing area of operations is reaching the point of depletion.
