Rock Quarry, Gravel Pit & Wood Processing Permitting

Rock Quarry, Gravel Pit, and Wood Processing Permitting is a specialty at Herrick & Salsbury, Inc. Local municipalities have adopted home rule ordinances regulating the siting, setbacks, and operations of rock quarries and gravel extraction areas over the years. We can provide ongoing permitting assistance and compliance. We currently maintain permitting for about 20 operations around Hancock County.

Permitting an extraction facility involves items such as traffic, hours of operation, water quality testing, buffering and screening from neighboring properties, how the land will be restored once the extraction is complete, stormwater management, noise control, spill prevention planning, spill and cleanup plan, and a plan for maintaining the water quality.
