Quarry IssuesOpenBerkshire St & Middlesex Ave Town of Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - SwampscottBlasts getting worse, there is no way homes across our town are not being damaged. If no one in the town supports the quarry, let's start the process to cancel their permit finally.

Blasting IssuesOpen30 Danvers Road Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - SwampscottHello, Aggregate Facilities changed grinding procedures recently. As of this year they added a loud siren at the time when they grind and load rocks. They start as early as 7 am and on some days till 8 pm. It happens on random days and times. The noise travels far and echoes on many streets especially the ones that are elevated. This is very disturbing to the area. Can someone work with them and see if they can either change the hours or install noise barriers around these facilities? Thanks

Blasting IssuesOpen30 Danvers Road Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - SwampscottFiling a second request for review, initial one still open. Aggregate Facilities have been using sirens today since 7 AM and still going at 6 pm. This is not acceptable for residential neighborhoods. The noise travels far and this needs to be addressed. Please work with them and ask to install sound barriers around the area where they do grinding and loading.
