I have lived in Levy County for most of my life. I wanted to be sure that my son was raised in this area because to me it is one of the most beautiful places in the world, and this community means a lot to me.
Two years ago, I was approached by Tarmac to come take some photos of the areas surrounding their planned operation. I was employed by an environmental consulting firm and asked if an environmental scientist could join me on the trip. I didn’t want to be associated with a project if it was going to hurt my community.
Mr. Harris (Jeff Harris) took us on a tour of the property. As we went from one site to another, he explained their plans to restore around 4,500 acres of the property to its original state. My co-worker was rather skeptical of the plans at first; however, as the conversation progressed it became clear that Tarmac was NOT your typical mining operation. My co-worker and I were both impressed with the measures they were taking to keep their environmental impact to a minimum as well as the improvements they intend to make.
