When Stoneco of Michigan, an Oldcastle Materials company, decided to move the location of the crushing and screening plant at its Ottawa Lake Quarry, the decision was not taken lightly. But the old configuration - in which material was blasted on one side of a road, then conveyed over the road to a plant on the other side -just wasn't working anymore. So management made the decision to not only change the operation so that everything was consolidated on one side of the road, but also to invest in new equipment. The result is an efficient 800-tph-capacity plant, with a 550-tph secondary plant, and a much-needed facelift.
