Kaw Valley Companies, Inc. proposes to dredge sand for 25+ years from a parcel of Leavenworth County farmland located at 166th Street and Lenape Road (just north of Burning Tree Golf Course and the city of DeSoto).

​

These maps show the haul route that their estimated 160 diesel dump trucks would travel

every weekday from 7 am to 3 pm

to first transport sand from the quarry site to their drying plant in Edwardsville, Kansas

then to return empty to the site to refill and do it all again.

​

Pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, busloads of school-kids, commuters, wildlife, and residents

far beyond the borders of Leavenworth County

will be adversely impacted by Kaw Valley's proposed project.
