Magruder Limestone Quarry

Magruder Limestone Company Inc. applied for an expansion of its existing permit at a new site in Miller County.  After consideration of all the information gathered at its Sept. 27, 2007 Land Reclamation Commission meeting, the commission members ordered a hearing be conducted before deciding whether to issue the permit expansion. 

Below are links to the staff director’s notice of recommendation, letters received from the public and responses to those letters.  Included with the notice is attachment one.  The staff director’s recommendation is based on the technical merits of the application, along with a summary of the issues the public has raised.

Only the Land Reclamation Commission can ultimately decide whether or not to issue the permit, depending upon its final decision based on the outcome of the formal hearing, which began April 28 and will likely conclude on June 6.  Currently, there are three additional hearing dates scheduled.

Hearing Dates
May 23, June 4 and June 6 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day located at the Missouri Department of Natural Resources Conference Center at 1730 E. Elm Street in Jefferson City.

While the program staff can only evaluate the technical merits of the application, the commission may consider factors affecting the health, safety or livelihood of petitioners during the hearing.
