On Saturday, April 15, 2017, Naceville Materials located in West Rockhill Township, Bucks County, PA, held a Community Day Event for local residents and neighbors of the quarry.
Naceville Materials, owned and operated by H&K Group, Inc. / Naceville Materials, Inc., opened up its facility to more than 60 local residents for a guided quarry tour, production blast experience and a question and answer segment with Naceville Materials and H&K Group’s leadership teams.
The day began with residents being greeted by H&K Group employees at West Rockhill Township’s James Memorial Park. Each resident was given corporate logoed safety gear (hard hat, vest, safety glasses) and boarded on to the buses that took them over to the quarry for a pre-blast tour. Following the tour, the residents then gathered in a tented area, approximately 1,500 feet from the blast. Due to safety precautions, the residents were not able to see the blast directly; a drone was used to take footage of the blast that was shown in real time to the residents on a TV in the tented area.
Preceding the blast, residents were given an opportunity to ask any and all questions that they have about the quarry specifically, operations within the quarry, and blasting procedures. The day concluded with a post blast tour, residents were taken back into the quarry to see the post blast site and ask any questions to the professionals riding with them. During the day’s events, many residents took the opportunity to get their questions and concerns alleviated by the leadership team and left the quarry with more knowledge and a better understanding of H&K Group, Inc., Naceville Materials, Inc. and the operations in a quarry.
