Gravel Mine Opponents to Make Final Plea
From Times Staff Reports
Hundreds of north Los Angeles County residents are expected to crowd a Board of Supervisors hearing today in a last-ditch effort to derail plans for a large sand and gravel mine in Soledad Canyon.
The mine would be operated by Transit Mixed Concrete Co., a subsidiary of the Mexico’s Cemex, just east of Santa Clarita.
After the hearing, the board is scheduled to vote on the plans. If the project is approved, the mine could open within two years.
