Project Summary
To meet the construction demands of the community, Kugaaruk quarry sites will be used to extract aggregate (gravel, sand etc...). These sites are located south of Kugaaruk, the equipment working on site if approved, will be dump trucks to haul aggregate, crushers to break up material and loaders to extract aggregate.These quarries will remain active until all aggregates are depleted. The Hamlet will use the proceeds from Quarry permit fees to remediate the area to a point in which the area’s vegetation can grow back. These sites contain gravel, sand, and silt suitable for construction purposes and road maintenance in reasonable quantities which makes these sites desirable locations. These sites are near Kugaaruk resulting in easier access for the residents of the community to retrieve gravel, also minimizing costs to the contractors and the Hamlet due to the fact that the dump trucks do not need to travel long distances. There are existing access roads to all quarry sites.
