Make Your Voice Heard

About the Project

The Holroyd Company currently operates a gravel mine at 828 Old Pacific Highway Southeast, Olympia, WA, 98512. The 157-acre project site is in the uplands next to the Nisqually River Valley in unincorporated Thurston County. The company has mined sand and gravel at the mine since 1928 and is proposing to excavate those resources to a greater depth than permitted under the current State Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Reclamation Permit. When mining is complete, the site will be reclaimed and restored into a 73.9-acre lake surrounded by native plants and a walking path, subject to a future DNR permit.
