LETTER: Opposes quarry

Group implores state to reject plan

Residents: Project poses risks to area

A group of residents is urging the state to reject a plan to build a quarry in their community, saying the project poses risks to the environment and their quality of life.

In a letter to the state Department of Environmental Protection, the group said the quarry would destroy forests, pollute water supplies, and create noise and dust.

The group also said the quarry would hurt the local economy by driving away tourists and businesses.

“We implore you to reject this ill-conceived plan,” the group wrote. “We are deeply concerned about the devastating impact this quarry would have on our community.”

The state is currently reviewing the plan for the quarry. A public hearing on the project is scheduled for next month.

Quarry opponents cite environmental concerns

Opponents of the quarry say it would destroy forests, pollute water supplies, and create noise and dust.

The study also found that the quarry would pollute nearby streams and rivers with sediment and other pollutants.

Opponents say the quarry would also create noise and dust that would make it difficult for people to live in the area.
