This project intends to investigate the quality and health of water resources in and around the quarry using members of the class Odonata as bio-indicators. Quarry operations impact the environment in several ways, for instance quarry dust can change the chemistry of water resources by dissolving in them. Noise and mechanical shakes from blasting disturbs biodiversity and even
activities in karst areas and the effects that those impacts have had on the quality of life. Many human activities can negatively impact karst areas, includ-ing deforestation, agricultural practices, urbanization, tourism, military activities, water exploitation, mining, and quarrying (Drew, 1999) (fi g. 2). Minerals associated with karst have
health effects of quarrying activities. In the UK it is estimated that 9 million people may be exposed to WBV in the course of their work 4 but the actual health effects of such exposures are largely unknown In the quarrying industry vehicles as well as some types of fixed plant can produce vibration 3 HAVS is attributed to powered hand tools and can cause damage to the blood circulatory ...
Mining activities can led to health effects ranging from respiratory problems to mental disorders. Studies in Tanzania revealed that symptoms of heavy metal poisoning such as sensory disturbance, hyporeflexia, tremor, gingivitis, metallic taste, neuroasthenia and night blindness are common (Harada et al., 1999). In the last five years, studies ...

Stone quarrying and crushing spits huge stone dust to the environment and causes threats to ecosystem components as well as human health. Imposing emergency lockdown to stop infection of COVID 19 virus on 24.03.2020 in India has created economic crisis but it has facilitated environment to restore its quality.
the effects quarrying activities may generate on surrounding receptors. Moreover, as for its characteristics, it represents one of the most critical nuisances. In fact, first of all, the sustainability of any reclamation scheme aimed to eliminate, or if not possible, to reduce its effects, imply a long term planning and design.
In the light of these known hazards from gravel dust it is essential that evidence is available (perhaps from existing gravel quarries) of the extent to which PM 10 and PM 2.5 particles of crystalline silica dust can be expected to be found (say over the course of a year) at distances of say one, two and four kilometres from quarry workings ...

Quarrying is a short-term activity with long term effects it comes along with the promises of wealth and jobs but it brings high environmental costs. The main aim of the study was to unearth impacts that quarrying activities has on health of the quarry workers and people living next to the quarries as well as physical environment.

impacts from quarrying activities on the health of the people are quite significant as blasting vibrations have also resulted in cracks in several buildings exposing the occupants to danger. Other potential quarrying effects which are of concern to environmentalists include biodi-versity loss, land degradation, nuisance effects, reduced

Waste Management Benefits, Planning and Mitigation Activities for Homeland Security Incidents The primary goal of pre-incident waste management planning is to prepare a community to effectively manage waste, debris and materials generated by a homeland security incident, including reducing the potential amount of waste generated at the outset.
Quarry activities have disrupted the health, peace and beauty of the once serene community.
