Staker and Parson received four Silver awards and one Bronze award for the following sites: Brigham City North Facility, South Weber Facility, McGuire Facility, Beck Street Quarry and Keigley Quarry. The awards recognize aggregate producers that meet and exceed technical environmental and regulatory requirements.

Criteria include: extent to which the operation’s environmental control measures produce measurable results better than regulatory requirements; extent to which an operation has implemented effective environmental control measures; quality and effectiveness of an operation’s pollution prevention and waste minimization programs; quality and effectiveness of the operation’s proactive environmental program; and degree of employee involvement in environmental programs.
