The major environmental and socio-economic problems related to quarrying revealed during this study include, landscape alteration, hill cutting affecting local biodiversity, generation of unproductive wastelands, dust pollution, noise pollution, illegal stone extraction, accidents and in some areas lowering of groundwater table.
A subsequent study by WorleyParsons (incorporating Patterson Britton and Partners) in 2008 investigated the impact of climate change on flooding in Stonequarry Creek. In 2010, Council engaged WorleyParsons to extend the 2D flood model upstream, and carry out a climate change assessment on the extended model network.
2016-6-6 More than 300 quarries and 1000 stone cutting industries are exist in Palestine, with a total annual yield of 100 million tons of raw stone and 25 million square meters of good stone. Unfortunately, this industry is usually associated with air pollution. To assess the impact of such action on agriculture and plant biodiversity, two methods including measurement of the particulate matters (PM

State Impact Assessment Laws; Principal Laws: New York State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA) One of the petitioner mining company’s arguments was that the town board should have considered a proposed stone quarry’s potential beneficial impacts on water levels in light of the effects of climate change. The appellate court said
2017-9-9 This is a quarry operation, which involves removal of overburden and extraction of building stone from mother rock by using required machineries. The building stone extracted will be transported to local constructions activities. 5.1 Population Projection The project involves only 10 man powers, who are all engaged from the
