The U.S. Corps of Engineers is asking for public comment through the end of this month regarding an application for a proposed rock quarry and barge docking facility on the Cumberland River near Dycusburg.
Already, the company proposing to develop the quarry has removed graves from a pioneer family cemetery. Descendants of those buried at Bunton Cemetery have raised issues regarding the removal and have met with federal officials about their concerns.
See this week's Crittenden Press printed edition for details. The newspaper will be on newsstands after 3 p.m., today.
