Packed Breakables Away

I packed away all of my good china and took glass ornaments and decorations down from the beams where they used to hang. I didn't want the decorations to fall during a blast and hit us on the head. I didn't want my good dishes to rattle and fall over and break. When guests came over for a dinner party, I had to unpack all my good dishes to use them and then pack them all back up again afterwords. It is a lot of trouble to go through just to keep your things from getting broken. It is a hard way to live every day - like living out of a suitcase in your own home.

Concerns

I am concerned about Benzene getting into my well water form the ANFO used to ignite the blasts, my well going dry and my home becomming damaged and loosing its value in the market because it is now located next to a major nusience.

No Peace of Mind

Since CCA has come into the neighborhood, our peace and quite has been taken away. Our peace of mind has been taken away. We have not been able to enjoy our yard as much as we used to before CCA arrived. This greatly impacts our ability to use and enjoy our own property.

No Warning - Broken Promises

CCA said they were going to give us a warning just before the blasts and an all clear signal after. We have not heard any warnings or all clear since the very first test blast. CCA is not building a good relationship with the neighbors if they don't do the things they tell us they will do.

Annoyed

Earthquake-like Experience

I was in the yard this summer when the quarry blasted. I felt the earth ripple under my feet. It felt just like an earthquake. It was a very unnerving experience.

Seriously Shaken

The blasts have been getting stronger and louder since they started. Our house noticeably shakes with each blast. The windows rattle. We put a float in a glass of water on the windowsill and when they blast, you can really see the water and the float shake around - not a little, but a lot. If the shaking continues over many years, I am very seriously concerned about cracks and damage to our house.
