Document Description
The A.R. Wilson Quarry is an existing aggregate mining operation operated by Granite Rock Company (Graniterock) located approximately 2 miles east of Aromas in unincorporated San Benito County. Mining began in 18 95 and was recognized by the County in 1981 as a vested operation. In 1993 , the County certified an EIR and approved Use Permit No. 460-88A authorizing designed placement of reclamation materials on adjacent property south of the quarry. The reclamation plan was last updated in 2016 .
Graniterock seeks to amend the 2016 Reclamation Plan and modify Use Permit No. 460-8 8A to extend reclamation materials placement into an additional 195.4-acre area (referred to as the "Permit Amendment Project Area") that is entirely within the existing Use Permit Area and adjacent to the 2016 Reclamation Plan Area. The Project includes designed placement of reclamation materials and subsequent reclamation and revegetation, consistent with activities evaluated in the 1993 EIR, to support aggregate production at the vested quarry.
