AGGREGATES MANAGER / February 2017 9 TENNESSEE Plans for the expansion of Aggregates USA's Sullivan County quarry were approved at the end of 2016. According to the Herald Courier, the expansion will extend the quarry's reserves by five additonal years. The Sullivan County Board of Zoning Appeals also approved a surety bond should the operator go out of business or vacate the property unexpectedly. Most of the 16 people who spoke about the expansion request were in favor of it. VERMONT The body of a missing Bennington College student, Hadil Mar- zouq, was found under the ice at Dorset Quarry, MassLive.com reports. Police continue to investigate the drowning incident, and no determination has been made on the manner of her death. Marzouq was reported missing on Dec. 18. The native of Palestine was a junior at the college and majored in public action and conflict resolution. SOUTH DAKOTA WISCONSIN The Pennington County Planning and Zoning Board, which re- versed its decision to issue an operating permit to Croell Redi Mix when confronted by a standing-room only crowd that objected to it, found itself on the losing end of one lawsuit and faces substan- tial financial damages in another. KOTA TV reports that Seventh Circuit Judge Matthew Brown sided with Croell Redi Mix in its lawsuit against the county. Croell awaits a decision in its lawsuit for $10 million in damages. The company's attorney said that suit will now proceed. "As each day goes by and until that construc- tion permit is in our hands and Croell is allowed to proceed with the utilization of its property, as the law allows them to do, those damages are mounting every single day," attorney Tom Brady told the news outlet. Pennington County officials declined comment. The owner of Wingra Stone and Redi-Mix says he's not happy with changes a legislative study committee wants to make to burial site protections. According to WMTV, owner Robert Shea wants to mine Ho-Chunk Nation burial mounds located in his Wingra Stone quarry in Dane Coun- ty. He needs a permit since the mounds are in the state historical society's burial site catalog and faces opposition from the tribe. The committee was formed by lawmakers to revise burial site protections. It recently finalized a bill that would require the historical society director to consid- er evidence to catalog a site and allow property owners to fight a cataloging decision at hearings. Shea, who was part of the committee, said the changes don't go far enough and weaken the rights of property owners.
