Quarry Legislation Jefferson County has the largest limestone quarry in the state of West Virginia.
Tourists can no longer visit the lowest point in the state.
Hundreds if not thousands of county residents have been negatively impacted by the exponential and unregulated expansion of their operations. Local legislators have been less than successful in half hearted and passive efforts to assist in the protection of individual property rights and ground water quality issues. Without aggressive legislative representation of residents, there is no incentive for high impact industries to be good corporate neighbors. I have dropped my normal signature block for this message. Help the residents east of the Shenandoah by contacting all the state legislators you possibly can on this issue.
