Ontelaunee Quarry Industrial Mine Permitting

Client : Berks Products Corporation
Location: Leesport, Pennsylvania


This quarry is located in a karst geologic setting at the confluence of the Schuylkill River and Maiden Creek, making water quality management a complex and ongoing issue. Skelly and Loy prepared a large industrial mine permit application to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP) for two existing mines and an additional support area. Specific tasks included preparation of relevant permit application modules and maps including NPDES, geology, hydrology, and erosion and sediment controls and development of operations and reclamation plans. A hydrologic model, water quality improvement plan, and sinkhole remediation plan were also required as part of the application process. The permit was issued in December, 2015.
