We were pleased to host Wisconsin Assembly Representative Rob Stafsholt for a tour last week at the Covia mine in Menomonie. Covia is a WISA member company, and all WISA members are committed to meeting or exceeding all state and local requirements for safety and environmental regulations. Sand mining in Wisconsin is a highly regulated industry, and our members continually work to prove their commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainable practices.
