North Stafford residents say quarry expansion will adversely impact their neighborhood

A proposal to expand operations and build a concrete mixing plant at North Stafford’s Vulcan Materials quarry is raising concerns among some nearby residents who say the expansion will bring more trucks, noise and dirt to their suburban neighborhood. “The whole thing is nothing but a disaster,” said Jeff Eastland of Toluca Road. “The dust from that cement plant is going to affect everybody’s health, not to mention the extra trucks and everything else that they are doing.” Eastland and his wife, Elena Prokos, have lived on their 7-acre farm just west of the quarry since 1999. One of Eastland’s concerns with the new mixing plant is its possible impact on the small pond on his property that is brimming with vegetation and wildlife.

A proposed mine expansion at North Stafford’s Vulcan Materials Co. has some residents in the Eastern View community concerned about how it might affect them. “It affects our neighborhood, the values of our home, the environment that we live in,” said Carrie Kortman of Jody Court. “It just appears that [Vulcan] is going to be able to do whatever they want. They’re a business, and that takes precedence over the homeowners in the neighborhood.” Vulcan manufactures construction materials for residential, commercial, industrial and government customers. Amphibolite is mined in the Stafford quarry and is a common stone used in construction, paving and building.
