The crusher is equipped with sprayer nozzles. About 1,500 gallons of water per day for 3 weeks would be used for dust control. During paving, dust suppression would be required on site on South Alaska Road for 1 mile and on the East Cameron Bridge Road portion of the access route. Magnesium chloride will be applied to the roads for dust suppression. No impacts to air quality are expected.
Some bull thistle is also present.
Any noxious weeds that should invade the site would be controlled or eliminated by following the county weed control plan. The site would be reclaimed to a shallow bowl. The loamy soils hold moisture and would allow good revegetation. The plan call for reclamation to dryland pasture, but this area could be returned to rangeland or irrigation use after reclamation. No rare species or cover types were found during a field inspection, and none were reported in an NRIS search.
