Below is a statement from a Freetown resident regarding concerns about the CCA quarry operating in a residential neighborhood.
Rock crushing quarry operations can create fine rock dust, which can travel for miles in the air and bury deep into the lungs causing respiratory problems and irritating already existing respiratory conditions. Silica dust has been proven to cause lung cancer, silicosis, tuberculosis, scleroderma, kidney failure, and immune system disorders.
Some people neighboring this quarry operation already have serious health conditions. Dust from the quarry operation would be extremely detrimental to these people who already have fragile health.
