How We Approach Quarry Restoration
Quarry restoration services involve rehabilitating former quarry sites and transforming them into usable land for parks, commercial spaces or other purposes. R&R Contracting’s trained quarry restoration crews accomplish this in a variety of ways.
Restoration work takes into consideration environmental, community and economic elements.
Quarry rehabilitation methods
Three important quarry restoration and land reclamation services our crews provide are soil management, slope stabilization and native vegetation planting.
Soil management
The soil at quarry sites often has been severely degraded after years or decades of activity. Our goal is to restore the structure, nutrient content and fertility of the soil through various soil reclamation and soil amendment strategies. Healthy soils provide a good environment for the regrowth of vegetation while reducing erosion and supporting water retention.
Slope stabilization
Quarry land may have unstable and steep terrain. R&R Contracting crews can restore stability by implementing measures to prevent landslides and halt erosion. Highly effective methods include erosion control mats, terracing to add layers within the terrain and the planting of sections of vegetation (see below).
Slope stabilization supports the restored area as well as the surrounding ecosystem by reducing pollution and sedimentation.
Native vegetation planting
Environmental restoration can be initiated in an area degraded by quarry projects by the planting of native vegetation. We’ll identify ideal plant species based on how they contribute to pollinator support, serve wildlife habitation areas, and enhance the enrichment of the soil.
Benefits of Quarry Restoration
Efficient use of post-mining land can bring a host of benefits:
- Improved biodiversity
- Positive environmental impact
- Economic gain through the repurposing of the land
- Aesthetic beauty
- Enhanced well-being of people in the community
