Hi SDSEEKER,
The mining permit is good until 2031 and was issued in the 90’s. They could mine right now. I spoke to a Vulcan rep today. He thinks they may start mining next year. It is really depends on the economic conditions. The permit that was up for review this year was only to cover some work to protect the creek. They already have completed all the other permit processes.
My wife went to the city of Poway yesterday and reviewed the Environmental report they had on file for the Poway Mine. They don’t plan to do any blasting. Only digging / scrapping. They plan to have 2 rock crushers on-site. They have to abide by the noise level requirements defined in Poway’s zoning rules. They have already built an access road from the Costco business park so trucks don’t have to use Beeler Creek Road.
Based on research, etc., I don’t think the noise is too big of a concern. The dust is the larger concern.
Here are links to a few older articles on the topic.

We also reviewed one of the 5yr reports (these are required for the operation) at the city of Poway and they had anticipated starting to mine in 2011 but that did not happen.

Thanks

Hello
Does anyone have information about the Poway Vulcan Materials mine and the permit that was open for questions in 2013? See link below. It looks like Beeler creek residents put up a fight in 2004. I’m wondering if Stonebridge residents are able to put up a tougher fight to stop future mining since there are more homes in Stonebridge. Do you think we are likely to see the mining company win or do you think there is a good chance the people will be able to stop mining for good?

Does anyone know what kind of impact mining operations may have on homes in Stonebridge, and specifically the homes that back up to Beeler creek. Noise, eyesore, dust, pollution, etc.? Are the homes at an elevation such that noise would have minimal impact on the homes above the mine? How did the Mira Mesa Vulcan mine affect homes on the rim of the mine? Does anyone have experience with Mira Mesa homes near the mine or Beeler creek homes and the poway mine?
