Vulcan Materials Getting Ready to Expand Into the Additional 80 Acres
February, 2007
The Azusa Rock Quarry has seen some preliminary digging into the far western boundary of the currently permitted mining area. Since this mining is right against the boundary, there is no point to begin mining here unless they intend to expand into the additional 80 acres within a short period of time.
