Lisbon Quarry
In January 2007 Vulcan Materials Company acquired Valley Run Stone. Strategically located in Kendall County, Illinois, the nation's second fastest-growing county from 2000 to 2006, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, the operation produces crushed limestone to help meet the growing need of the local economy.
Construction aggregates from the quarry go into the building of local roads, homes, businesses, schools and infrastructure. Cost-effective and reliable producers of high-quality construction aggregates help keep construction costs in line for residents and employers, as well as stretch existing tax dollars for local governments, schools and other taxing districts.
Lisbon Quarry has supplied area projects including: Kendall Marketplace, Bristol Bay Elementary (Yorkville), Yorkville Middle School, Kendall Wood Subdivision (Yorkville), Hunt Club (Oswego) and Rush-Copley.
On average, every American uses approximately 10 tons of aggregates annually - a conservative estimate for high growth areas of the U.S. like Kendall County.
Upon acquiring the quarry, the Vulcan team of engineering, operations and safety professionals embarked on an aggressive program to the facility for its neighbors, employees and customers, such as:
Making equipment, safety and beautification improvements.
Upgrading controls and procedures to reduce truck track-out.
Bringing in our operations, engineering and blasting experience/technology.
Developing a comprehensive groundwater monitoring program.
Preparing a structural and domestic well inspection program.
Working with customer truck drivers to promote safety.
Establishing an active partnership with community organizations and local schools.
Lisbon Quarry produces a variety of construction materials to meet the specifications of local construction projects.
