(Photo by Erik Karlsson) Plant. Continued from Page 1A Gage said. "Since the meeting on the dust issue we've installed a state-ofthe -art method of handling dust by using a water fog high pressure water.

it really substantially reduces the dust emission from the crushing activity." And when the new crusher is installed, replacing the older machinery, dust also will be reduced, he said. The crusher also will be installed at a lower elevation then the crusher it replaces. The new crusher also will help alleviate some of the noise pollution, Gage said, adding older machinery emits more noise. "When people go into their back yard to barbecue they want to listen to the birds and the leaves and they don't want to hear industrial sounds in the background," he said. Company officials also are working with a consultant in an attempt to help lessen the vibration from dynamiting in the quarry, Gage said.

Lafarge Inc. owns 52 percent of Parker-Lafarge Inc. and Parker Brother owns 48 percent. The company supplies construction, asphalt and concrete companies in this region including San Marcos, Bryan and Houston. While Parker-Lafarge supplies crushed rock to its neighbor the Balcones Cement Plant, owned by Lafarge it is not involved in the proposal to store and burn hazardous waste at the Balcones Cement Plant.

"I think it's important to recognize the difference in the companies," Gage said.
