I'm very excited to announce my latest article is out in NSSGA's Stone, Sand & Gravel REVIEW. This is a special story because it highlights how reclamation can be integrated into a community plan and with patience, planning, and perspective, can become a vibrant social hub.
The most inspiring piece of this story to me is the perseverance and belief in a vision- despite major setbacks- that took place to make it come to fruition. Although the individual who led the charge on this project was not comfortable being interviewed and in the spotlight, a colleague and I agree their contributions, foresight, and creativity deserve major, major kudos. I'll go on the record to say I hope someday to be the catalyst for an enhancement reclamation project like this- not necessarily at the same scale or type of reclamation to a 'tech center', but a project that clearly gives back to the community and realizes the potential of a quarry following extraction. So to the individual who spearheaded this project: thank you for the inspiration. I'd like one day to buy you coffee and 'talk shop' because I feel we are of the same tribe. Please read the article to learn more! Or if you're interested to learn more details (because there are always additional interesting details that can't be included in an article...) please post a comment or send me a message!
