B <br />REaLODIS3 M AN12 03MRR VIEW <br />Western Aggregates, Inc. (WAI) wishes to construct a 5 -acre asphalt pad with an access road <br />and drainage containment pond, on land leased by them immediately south of, and contiguous <br />with, their lightweight aggregate plant (permit No. M -88 -108). The property is owned by the <br />Hogan family and leased by WAI. WAI operates a shale mine and lightweight aggregate <br />production plant on Highway 93 in northern Jefferson County. The pad is required to store a <br />new product being manufactured by WAI called Realite Plus. Relatively impermeable liner <br />material will be placed beneath both the pad and the pond, and all surface runoff and runon will <br />be controlled. <br />' Realite Plus is a lightweight aggregate product impregnated with a calcium chloride solution. <br />It is used as a road sanding material that meets the following criteria: <br />' • The calcium chloride melts ice and snow and is a dust suppressant. <br />' ® The dust suppressing qualities help meet mandated air quality goals by reducing <br />the reentrainment of road sand. <br />The lightweight aggregate is easier and less expensive to sweep up (because it is <br />lighter than normal road sand) and will not break windshields. <br />Anticipated demand for this new product requires additional space to store the product for <br />tdistribution. The product is produced throughout the spring, summer and fall and is shipped out <br />during the snow months. <br />LA <br />.y A G R A <br />E�►aL�rn►i�onr�entalonup <br />
