National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association
Environmental Eagle Award
|
Operated by Aggregate Industries, the Wrentham
Quarry in Massachusetts was awarded the National Stone Sand and Gravel
Association’s 2004 Silver Environmental Eagle Award. The Environmental
Eagle Award was created in 1992 to provide national recognition for
aggregate-producing companies actively contributing to the maintenance
of the environment in and around their operations, as evidenced by a
corporate commitment to the full use of environmental controls and
systems.
The environment plays a large role in Aggregate Industries’ US
operations and recently it has been given an even higher priority.
Aggregate Industries is taking a leap forward by developing and
implementing a certifiable Environmental Management System (EMS) across
all US regions. This EMS will meet the requirements of, and also be
certified to, an international standard known as ISO 14001.
