71. Noise: Report does not reflect the whole integrated aggregate processing operations.
72. Noise: Study does not include ALL noise generators both future and existing quarries; it is not fully inclusive and comprehensive.
73. Noise: Noise generated by equipment stripping overburden, building the noise attenuation berms, building ponds, installation of processing equipment and the haul road for the proposed quarry has been ignored from the study. Area 1 represents approximately 25% of the complete pit area and the plan has not separated construction activities from extraction. Additionally the top elevations of the westerly berm in area 1 are below the existing elevations of the majority of area 1.
74. Noise: Study does not indicate impacts on the West Montrose Covered Bridge.
75. Noise: Study does not indicate the impact on Letson Park, the only public open space in West Montrose.
76. Noise: The preliminary study should list not only the predicted mitigated sound levels at the various residential receptors but also the unmitigated results. It is important to see what the sound levels from the quarry would be if no control measures were implemented or if the control measures were damaged due to flooding
77. Noise: The study has not taken into consideration that initial extraction will occur at a higher elevation than shown.
78. Noise: Peak traffic per hour is based on theoretical assumptions. Any number of real life factors will contribute to considerable more traffic than allowed for in the report.
79. Noise: A vibration study has not been included.
80. Visual: The operational plan has allowed for processing equipment, stacker's and product stock piles of up to 15 meters in height. The visual impact report has not taken this into consideration.
