Quarry Shifts Underground, Residents Await Relief | Nashville News
Description
Nashville neighbors near Whites Creek Quarry are battling home damage from blasting, with residents like Quinta Martin reporting shaking floors and cracked walls—despite the quarry’s long history. Rogers Group, the operator, is pivoting to underground mining, claiming it will slash noise and vibrations with smaller charges. They also envision preserving the land for future parks or markets and plan to relocate their asphalt plant. While they insist all blasts stay within federal limits and offer a resident hotline, locals still seek compensation and relief, hoping the shift will finally bring peace to their homes.
