SUMMARY OF COMPLAINT
A large blast from the mines on NW 202nd ST shook our house and rattled the windows at 1:22pm today. I have called several times in the past year to complain about the strength of the blasts. We understand that they must blast but the strength and force of some explosions is traveling horizontally through our property and feels like an earthquake. (We used to live in Missouri (New Madrid Fault) so, Yes, we know what a quake feels like.) The charges are either too large or the mines don't understand where the force is being directed. It needs to stop shaking our homes.
