REPA & DEP
Take a look at

One of our biggest concerns..

REPA has called on PA DEP, not simply to shut down the Rockhill Quarry but, first and foremost, to fulfill its responsibility to protect the health and safety of Pennsylvania citizens.  The Mission Statement on PA DEP’s website clearly states its primary role as “The Department of Environmental Protection’s mission is to protect Pennsylvania’s air, land and water from pollution and to provide for the health and safety of its citizens through a cleaner environment.”
 
It does not state that PA DEP’s role is to find a way to allow a quarry containing Naturally Occuring ASBESTOS, located in a residential neighborhood, to operate. By repeatedly extending deadlines, PA DEP has given Hanson more than ample opportunity “to make sure Hanson’s Quarry operations comply with Pennsylvania environmental statutes and the Department’s regulations.” To date, Hanson has not fully complied, and further delays are unacceptable.

THOSE AT RISK FOR EXPOSURE TO ASBESTOS FROM ROCKHILL QUARRY:
