San Diego Aggregate Shortage

Basically San Diego County's aggregate shortage problem is very simple; demand is steadily increasing while aggregate production within the county is steadily declining. Currently the county has been importing 50% of our aggregate to satisfy demand. Supplies have been decreasing because the number of quarries in the county are declining.

Put the Sand back in San Diego is organized by EnviroMINE and San Diego CalCIMA Chapter action to educate county dwellers and officials about importance of aggregate mineral resource.
