Subject: [mou-net] Threat to 180th Street
The owners of the aggregate quarry on the hill above the 180th street marsh
have purchased the two properties to the north and are seeking a permit to
expand the rock quarry. At this point I have heard nothing to indicate that
the Vermillion town supervisors think that a mining operation is in any way
not compatible with a sensitive wetland habitat even if it is a waystation
for rare migrants or endangered and threatened breeding birds and turtles.

Good birds: I have a report of a Ross's Goose flying over Cedar Avenue near
Farmington High School. I don't know if the observer was able to report
this bird on eBird.
