Jefferson County has determined that the use of real property for agriculture and forestry operations is a high priority and favored use in the county. The county will not consider to be a nuisance those inconveniences or discomforts arising from such operations, if such operations are consistent with commonly accepted best management practices in compliance with local, state, and federal laws. If your real property includes or is within five hundred (500) feet of real property designated as Rural Residential 1:10 or 1:20, Rural Industrial, Rural Commercial, Agriculture, or Forestry, you may be subject to inconveniences or discomforts arising from such farming and forestry operations, including but not limited to noise, tree removal, odors, flies, fumes, dust, smoke, the operation of farm and forestry machinery during any 24-hour period, the storage and disposal or manure, and the application of permitted fertilizers and permitted pesticides.

The Shine Quarry has leased 40 acres from Pope Resource for over 10 years and the expansion is based on the dimishing assets doctrine.
Mineral extraction is a permitted use in the Commercial Forest designation. Section 4.0 of Ordinance 09-0525-95 effective June 5, 1995 states that all mineral extraction activities operating under a DNR permit and not within 1/2 mile of an Urban Growth Area are designated Interim Mineral Lands of Long Term Significance. The Shine Quarry was operating under DNR Reclamation Permit 70-012619 and is not within 1/2 mile of UGA. When the Unified Development Code was adopted these interim Mineral Lands of Long Term Significance were considered Mineral Resource Lands Overlay District (see Section 3.6.3 of the UDC).
