PACA: A Roadmap to Successfully Building and Connecting Communities in PA
P. 1
A ROADMAP TO SUCCESSFULLY BUILDING
AND CONNECTING COMMUNITIES IN PA
The noncoal industry (crushed stone, sand & gravel) is regulated at the local, state, and federal level.
This roadmap outlines the required steps to receive local, state and federal approval before any
mining activity can begin. This robust regulatory compliance process includes public participation
throughout and requires the applicant to pay several fees. Permitting can take upwards of 5 years
before any construction materials leave the approved site.
