Property owners near Big Springs Quarry, 2 N. 1700 Rd., Lecompton, voiced concerns that the quarry was not complying with 2009 guidelines Wednesday evening at the Douglas County Commission meeting.

County commissioners accepted a compliance report stating that the quarry had met all of the requirements of the 2009 guidelines. Many of the requirements included moving fences and physical structures, setting guidelines for future features of the quarry and monitoring trucking in and out of the quarry.

Bart Christian, a property owner, was not satisfied that the company was complying and said they should have to move the bank of a water feature farther back from the road.

“I’m very upset,” he said.

People can bring complaints to the commission that the quarry isn’t following its consent decree, and then the commission can take action. For now, though, the quarry is following the rules in the commission’s eyes.

“I’m confident that the review that has been undertaken has been competent,” said commissioner Mike Gaughan.
