Prince Edward County’s Committee of the Whole is recommending council declare one aggregate pit surplus to the county’s needs along with finishing the rehabilitation of two others, along with a quarry.
Aggregate extraction licences would also be relinquished.
Involved are the Milford Pit (to be declared surplus), the Cherry Valley Pit and the Crowe Pit, along with the Sophiasburg Quarry.
The Milford Pit contains a tiny amount of poorly-graded sand and is not actively used.
The recommendation also asks staff to explore using the Cherry Valley, Crowe and Sophiasburgh properties as excess soils-receiving sites.
