Methodology: Continuous exponential decay (base = 0.225 × e−0.467d), log-linear least-squares fit to Hite et al. (2001) quarry-only anchors (14%@1 mi, 9%@2 mi, 5.5%@3 mi) at the Aboite Township median home ($288k, ACS 2023). Industry factor 1.22× applied on top for quarry + asphalt + concrete + rail loading (informed by Simons 2006). LOS +10% for unscreened view (Boyle & Kiel 2001). Estimates carry a ±20% uncertainty band.

For awareness purposes only. This estimate is derived from published hedonic pricing research and is not a certified appraisal. Actual impact will vary based on site-specific conditions, market trends, and regulatory outcomes. Consult a licensed appraiser or environmental economist for legal or financial decisions.

Environmental Exposure at 1.2 Miles

  • Blast vibration from quarry detonations — felt as ground tremors inside homes
  • Silica dust and particulate matter (PM2.5/PM10) — linked to respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, and cancer at chronic exposure levels
  • Diesel exhaust from hundreds of daily truck trips and heavy equipment operations
  • Asphalt plant emissions — volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon monoxide, and fine particulate matter
  • Noise from crushing, blasting, truck traffic, and concrete batch operations during all permitted hours

These impacts would persist for the 80–100 year operational life of the quarry. See the full research.

Note: County assessed values are typically below market value. Your actual loss may be higher. Decline estimates are synthesized from peer-reviewed hedonic pricing studies. No local appraisal specific to this site has been conducted. See methodology.
