Lawrence County

The town and the pit are in different counties

Crain Quarry, trading as Stone Creek Quarries, records 3 employees and lies 3.50 miles from the middle of Pierce City. That short distance crosses a county line: the town is in Lawrence County and the quarry is in Newton County, according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration.

The road numbers below are measured around the pit and the county share quoted with them is Newton County’s.

Newton County restricts 11 of the 160 county-maintained structures it owns, which is light — well under the Missouri county-maintained rate. A truck working this corner has had an easier time of it than one out of the hill country to the east.

So the ten-mile circle is dense and mostly open

Those two counties sit in ground that was worked hard before anyone quarried it for aggregate. Jasper and Newton counties are the Missouri part of the Tri-State lead and zinc district, which ran from the 1850s until the 1950s across the corner where Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma meet.

The inheritance is a road network denser than the county’s population would predict, because it was built for a heavier industry. Within ten miles of this pit the national bridge file counts 148 structures — 21 carrying a posting, 13 coded below legal loads, seven of those county-maintained, and the nearest 3.29 miles out.

The lowest operating rating among the restricted ones is 3.6 metric tonnes, under the 11.0-tonne tare of an empty tandem dump. The lowest that admits a commercial vehicle is 15.3 tonnes, about 16.9 US tons, which leaves roughly 4.3 tonnes of stone against the twenty-five a legal 80,000 lb truck carries.

The other half of the inheritance is the work itself. A district under long-running remediation has civil-works demand that is programme-funded rather than growth-led, so the year runs flatter than a building market’s.

Farm trucks and grain trucks off the prairie ground.

  • Depends where it worked. Pierce City is in Lawrence County; the quarry three and a half miles out is in Newton County, and the road figures on this page are measured around the pit.
  • It ran into Kansas and Oklahoma too.That is normal here — both lines are within about fifteen miles.
