Committee approves annual nonmetallic mining report showing one-acre increase
Summary
The committee accepted the operator’s annual nonmetallic mining report required under Chapter NR 135; staff said the mined acreage increased by one acre from last year and the City will transmit the report to DNR.
The Quarry Monitoring Committee on Jan. 27 approved the annual nonmetallic mining report the operator files each year under Chapter NR 135. Unidentified Speaker 2 presented the report, saying the acreage under active mining is essentially unchanged from last year "with only one acre more that is being mined." City staff said they will transmit the information to the Department of Natural Resources as required.
Context: The annual report documents acres under excavation and reclamation to meet state oversight requirements. Committee members asked whether identified site changes reflect berm adjustments or additional ledge exposure; staff confirmed the increase was localized and described as a small expansion in the south-west area of the site.
Vote and procedure: A committee member moved to approve the annual report; the motion was seconded, the chair called the vote and recorded "3 ayes," after which the motion passed.
What’s next: The City will forward the annual report to DNR. The committee set its next regular meeting for May 12 at 6 p.m.
