The management anticipates that this program should be completed early in 1947. Since the corporation's acquisition of this quarry, the output has been increased to a current rate of about 250,000 tons per year, and this output also represents the capacity of the present equipment. When the new plant is completed, the corporation expects to increase its output further to about 500,000 tons per year, about 10% of which will be utilized to make asphalt paving material, and expects , to operate the quarry at a through-put of about 3,000 tons per eight-hour day.
