Judith Basin County has applied for an aggregate take and remove permit from the Minerals Management Bureau of the Montana DNRC. This document will analyze the impacts of two alternatives. A no-action alternative and an action alternative. If the action alternative is selected, a permit will be issued, and Judith Basin County would be granted permission to continue to mine and remove gravel from state lands. The proponent mined gravel historically without an active aggregate take and remove permit. Aggregate taken previously by the proponent without a permit was paid for in a lump sum in the spring of 2023. If the action alternative is selected, the proponent would be allowed to excavate gravel from the ground and sub-surface using heavy machinery and other equipment as deemed necessary. It shall be noted that this project is proposed to occur in an existing gravel mine site that has been mined since 2003, and on surface that has been disturbed prior. All topsoil would be retained for future use in reclamation.
