To summarize the test hole sites and samples taken in 7 of the Aggregate Mapping Completed Counties.
About the Aggregate Resource Mapping Program:
The Aggregate Resource Mapping Program (ARMP) began in 1984 when the Minnesota Legislature passed a law (Minnnesota Statutes, section 84.94) to: Identify and classify aggregate resources out side of the Twin Cities metropolitan area; Give aggregate resource information to local units of government and others for making comprehensive land-use and zoning plans; Introduce aggregate resource protection; and Promote orderly and environmentally sound development of the resource.

This spatial dataset of test holes and samples is based on a compilation of GIS aggregate resources (sand and gravel, crushed stone) reconnaissance scale data spanning seven county projects completed since 2000 by the DNR's Aggregate Resource Mapping Program (ARMP). The test hole site and sample data was collected to verify the presence or absence of sand and gravel at selected test hole sites from 7 completed Aggregate Mapping Program counties and continues presently. Selected test holes were sampled for aggregate gradations and/or construction aggregate quality specifications. The Minnesota Department of Transportation completed the lithological exam for construction aggregate quality. |
