Mulzer Crushed Stone, Inc. donated over 6000 tons of free sand for sand bags to the public, Emergency Management Agencies and local road and highway authorities throughout our operating area in Vanderburgh, Posey, Gibson, Warrick, Spencer, Perry and Dubois Counties in Indiana during the recent flooding situation. The majority of the free sand was used in Posey, Vanderburgh and Dubois Counties, although residents living in all of our operating areas were affected by the catastrophic flooding mother nature unleashed.

Now that the flood waters are receding and the need for sand bags is diminishing, disposing of the sand used to protect property is the next issue home owners’ face in the 2011 flood.  The local Emergency Management Agency office recommends that you proceed with caution when finding a use or a storage location for the sand.  Sand used in sand bags that may have come into contact with floodwater could be contaminated, which would affect how you should use the sand in the future.  Sherman Greer with the Evansville Emergency Management Agency recommended in the Wednesday, May 11 edition of the Evansville Courier & Press that residents “should not use this sand for mortar or flowerbeds and that it should be thrown away at an approved solid waste site”.  He also mentioned that it “should never be used in sandboxes for children”.  EMA officials are still working with other agencies to determine if the sand can be used for other purposes.  Vanderburgh County residents can also contact the Vanderburgh Co. Highway Department at (812) 453-5777 for more information on assistance in removing debris left over from the flood.

Since the flood waters have started to recede and residents who needed sand to save their property from rising waters have already visited our free sand piles, we will be offering sand as normal effective 5:00 p.m., Friday, May 6.   All Mulzer Crushed Stone, Inc. yards will have sand available for purchase during normal operating hours beginning at 8:00 am. Saturday, May 7, from 8:00 a.m. to noon.

Mulzer Crushed Stone, Inc.’s Cape Sandy Quarry, located directly on the Ohio River near Leavenworth, Indiana, is still dealing with massive amounts of water, from the river and rain storms. The photos below show two different underground sink holes.  One is collecting river water, the other rain water.  Both have been putting tremendous amounts of water into Cape Sandy’s Pit #1 for the past 2 weeks. 

Massive amounts of water are flowing into Cape Sandy's Pit #1.

The Mulzer Crushed Stone, Inc. yard in Rockport, Indiana, located on the Ohio River, has not escaped the flooding issues that have become so common in many communities throughout Southern Indiana.  Below are photos of  the yard and dry dock facility that is currently experiencing flooding.  MCS dry dock welders and the ‘Mr. Bill’ boat crew have had to Jon boat to the dry dock facility every day since the flooding began to perform their work.   Employees had to disconnect the electric that normally runs to the dry dock, tie off  the #8 dredge above the spot where the dry dock is located and run the this portion of the facility off the 450 kw generator that is housed on the #8 dredge.

A view from high above the Rockport Yard shows the current flooding situation at the facility. The dry dock is located at the top right hand of the photo.

Mulzer Crushed Stone, Inc.’s largest quarry, Cape Sandy, is located on the Ohio River. Employees at the quarry get very nervous anytime the river rises, but 2011 has been an exception. These photos show some of the wet issues Cape Sandy is dealing with on an on-going basis.
