Abstract:

Martin Marietta owns the RDU Quarry which is currently looking to expand due to increased demand for crushed stone to build the Triangle Expressway. The quarry is located near the Wyngate subdivision and expanding the quarry would intrude on the community's boundaries. Projected quarry expansion would result in dumping excess dirt from mining in an area near the subdivision's entrance at Ebenezer Church Road.
