Petition to the Province of Nova Scotia and Percy A. Paris MLA for Waverley, Fall River Beaver Bank AND The Halifax Regional Municipality and Barry Dalrymple, Councilor, District 2 “regarding the proposed rock quarry facility North of Miller Lake West, Fall River, Nova Scotia” 


We, the undersigned are opposed to the quarry operation proposed by Northern Construction and Supplies Limited of New Brunswick between the Old Guysborough Road (now Aerotech Drive) and Highway 102, before Exit 5A Westbound. This operation does not conform to the Municipal Planning Strategy (the Regional Plan) and has the potential for serious negative environmental impact. In addition, we are concerned about the impact on neighbouring property values and people’s enjoyment of their properties.


Please note: It is still important to sign the paper copy of the petition as well as much as possible, as any question to the validity of this list will be supported in writing as well. Thank you.

Not the right place for a rock quarry. The traffic on that road is bad enough as it is.

We already have enough noise and traffic around here. Keep the quarry away from our homes.
