In
1985, Union Asphalt, Inc. made a pivotal decision to purchase
an existing quarry in Atascadero, California. This site has been
transformed into what is referred to today as Rocky Canyon. |
|
|
The
decision to obtain the hard rock quarry proved to be one of the
most prudent ventures in Union Asphalt's history. At this site the
company has the ability to mine granite rock and hence offer the
invaluable service of providing essential aggregates for the construction
industry. A few years earlier, in 1983, Union Asphalt purchased
an existing hot asphalt concrete production facility in Paso Robles.

Rocky
Canyon services both its asphalt hot mix plant and ready mix operations,
while supplying the needs of contractors and homeowners. |
Over the years, the granite quarry and asphalt plant have
undergone many upgrades and transformations and have now grown
to be two of Union Asphalt's main operations in San Luis Obispo
County. The quarry site spans out over 250 permitted acres, and
has the capability of producing a large range of construction
aggregates. The asphalt plant is situated on 11 acres adjacent
to highways 101 and 46 where it produces a number of products
that meet Federal, State and local specifications
