Environmental stewardship has always been a core part of our business at Luck Stone. We take great pride in our environmental stewardship accomplishments and the resulting benefits to the communities in which we operate. In the spirit of continuous improvement, and beyond compliance environmental performance, Luck Stone has implemented an environmental management system (EMS) within our Construction Aggregates business unit. We have established the following four corporate environmental goals to support the EMS.

• Increase Community Education and Outreach on Environmental Issues
• Enhance our Recycling Programs and Initiatives
• Further Reduce Dust Emissions from our Process Areas
• Improve Discharge Water Quality

Each of our operations participating in the program has identified site specific objectives to support these corporate goals. In recognition of our EMS efforts, the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) has recognized Luck Stone as an Environmental Enterprise (E2) in their Virginia Environmental Excellence Program. The Virginia Environmental Excellence program is designed to recognize companies that implement an EMS and achieve beyond compliance performance. This program also strengthens the partnership between DEQ and participating companies. Luck Stone is proud to have been recognized by DEQ as an Environmental Enterprise.
