Pattison Sand Company sheds additional light on water request

Submitted by admin on Thu, 05/29/2025 - 10:49

Pattison Sand Company owner Kyle Pattison led an informational session May 17 addressing the company’s request to dramatically increase water withdrawals at its mining operation near Clayton. Around 15 people attended the session. (Photos by Audrey Posten)

According to Kyle Pattison, the request to pump more water is to quarry limestone below the water table. Pattison said the company’s focus on sand is likely to decrease, instead handling more rock and diversifying into railcar storage and “handling other products on the Mississippi River and rail and continuing to provide jobs that are a little more stable.”

Supervisors to ask DNR for more info on Pattison water withdrawal request

Submitted by admin on Wed, 05/28/2025 - 17:16

The Clayton County Board of Supervisors on May 20 agreed to send a letter to the Iowa DNR requesting more information about Pattison Sand Company LLC’s request to modify their permit to allow more than a threefold increase in water they use.

The three-member board—Doug Reimer, Steve Doeppke and Ray Peterson—agreed there is widespread concern about the potential impacts on Clayton County’s water, and that Pattison has not clearly spelled out the need for more water or how the increased water use might affect neighbors.

Pikes Peak State Park Manager Andrew Roach said areas of downed trees next to the campground and in proximity to Hickory Ridge were part of a planned tree harvest in the park.

According to Roach, the primary reason for the selective harvest was to promote growth of more oak, hickory, walnut and other nut trees with mast production that has the greatest benefit to wildlife.
