The Pottawatomie County Commission’s decision to approve a conditional use permit for a rock quarry in the north-central part of the county was affirmed Friday by the Kansas Court of Appeals.

The quarry sits on a portion of an 853-acre plot, just over one and a half miles south of Wheaton. Mid-States Materials is requesting a permit for a rock quarry on six tracts of land approximately a half mile west of Wheaton Road. The tract sits inside a boundary created by Reves Road, Belleville Road and Clear Creek Road.

Mid-States Materials is part of the Topeka-based Bettis Asphalt company.
