South Chain of Lakes StudyStarting on April 30, 2018, Zone 7 and the quarry operator, CEMEX, are collaborating on a groundwater study near the intersection of Isabel and Vineyard Avenues at Lakes A and B of the future Chain of Lakes facility. The study will include drilling into the ground near the lakes to collect data on aquifer conditions and soil characteristics. Drilling activities are not expected to impact traffic or trail access, as the drill rig will be within the perimeter of the mining area. The study is expected to last about a month.
