| Short Description |
Glacier Northwest, Inc., a subsidiary of Lone Star Northwest, Inc., has applied to increase the rate of gravel extraction from its mine on the eastern shore of Maury Island. Under the proposal, the rate of gravel mining would increase to a maximum of 7.5 million tons annually. Mining would occur in up to 193 acres of the 235-acre site over 11 to 50 years. To assess certain hydrologic impacts associated with this expansion, Ecology contracted Pacific Groundwater Group to assess the issues. (Also see abstract below) | |||

Glacier Northwest, Inc., a subsidiary of Lone Star Northwest, Inc., has applied to increase the rate of gravel extraction from its mine on the eastern shore of Maury Island. Under the proposal, the rate of gravel mining would increase to a maximum of 7.5 million tons annually. Mining would occur in up to 193 acres of the 235-acre site over 11 to 50 years. To assess certain hydrologic impacts associated with this expansion, Ecology contracted Pacific Groundwater Group to assess the issues. This report summarizes the results of the hydrogeologic impact assessment based on data collected through March 2000. For printed copies of this report, contact Dave Garland at NWRO.
