Discover the difference between liking the move earth, and living to move earth.
Essroc Limestone Quarry
| Location: | Logansport, IN |
| Dirt Moved: | 58,000 Tons (Imported) |
| Area Graded: | 250,000 Square Feet Clay Liner 87,000 Square Feet Topsoil |
| Stone Crushed: | 30,000 Tons of Limestone |
| Sand Placed: | 18,000 Tons (Imported) |
Essroc Limestone quarry produces cement, which means they also produce a lot of cement kiln dust. As a result, the Indiana Department of Environmental Management requires them to build a cell.
After blasting, Star Excavating crushed the ‘shot’ rock and used it to create a base layer. Next, we will import low permeability clay to build a containment cell. Once the cell is full, we will cap it just like a landfill. All of this is taking place under MSHA regulation. Let’s rock.
