This order effectively stops my entire operation. In <br /> speaking with local personnel, I am told that I am not allowed to quarry new materials, nor am I <br /> allowed to sell from existing stockpiles of material. Again,this effectively stops my entire <br /> operation. <br /> Still, I am asked to pay a fine,and pay for a bond increase despite the fact that my operations are <br /> at a standstill. How can I be expected to pay these fines and bond increases without operating, <br /> and with no likely operation for the foreseeable future? I can only hope that you will withdraw <br /> the"Cease& Desist"order as pertains to the operation of the quarry, so that I can resume some <br /> sort of revenue generating activity. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Rudolph Fontanari <br /> Western SlopqFl tone <br /> "` c ,_x �: <br />
