Safety & Liability

Our operations are guided by rigorous safety standards, environmental responsibility, and long-term site stewardship. 

Protecting People & Land

Gypsum mining is governed by rigorous safety, environmental, and reclamation standards designed to protect workers, communities, and natural resources. Our operations follow federal and state regulations supported by comprehensive Environmental Management Plans and permits that ensure responsible, sustainable mining from development through closure. 

Mine Safety & Health

Mine Safety & Health

Worker safety is our top priority, guided by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act. All employees complete mandatory training programs, including new-hire onboarding, annual refreshers, and task-specific instruction, while routine inspections and hazard reporting help maintain safe working conditions in coordination with MSHA and OSHA.

Environmental Regulations

Environmental Regulations

We comply with strict air and water quality requirements to minimize environmental impact throughout our operations. This includes dust and emissions controls permitted by state agencies, wastewater management under NPDES permits, and proactive programs to prevent and control noxious weeds through treatment and revegetation.

Reclamation Closure

Reclamation & Closure

Reclamation is integrated into our mining process, with land reshaping and restoration occurring concurrently as mining advances. Detailed Environmental Management Plans guide long-term monitoring, site closure, and post-mining land use, supported by financial assurances that ensure responsible closure and ongoing stewardship.
