This is happening across the river in Osceola, but the sand is being transported to North Branch.

"Historically, gravel and limestone was mined at this pit. Blasts occurred twice annually, and about 150,000 tons of material was mined and transported. Under new ownership, both limestone and frac sand are being mined. They are mining 2000 tons daily, and expect to ship 700,000 tons of material in 2019. Approximately 80 trucks a day are currently leaving the site. Twenty percent of the material shipped is frac sand, which is washed on site, then shipped to North Branch, Minnesota for further processing. They have blasted 5 times this year, and anticipate blasting on a monthly basis going forward. There are no restrictions on how often they may blast. The owners said they expect the lifetime of the existing mine to be 8 to 10 years.

At a meeting held at the Discovery Center, the new owners acknowledged that they are currently in discussions to purchase an additional 200 acres to the South of the existing mine. They said that they see this as the future of the mine."

The expansion of an existing gravel pit and new sand mining at the site is raising questions and concerns about water, air, and the impacts of frequent blasting.

#Facts are: No, China is not paying for the Trump bailout to farmers, for the trade war he started.

No, China is not paying for Trump's bailout for US farmers

cnn.com

Just as Mexico was supposed to pay for the wall, but isn't, now China is supposed to pay for President Donald Trump's plan to bail out US farmers.
