Granite's operations include 35 aggregate and 59 asphalt plants across seven western states and one province, including Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Washington, Oregon, Alaska, California and British Columbia, Canada.

"Our goal is to efficiently produce the highest quality aggregates in our market to support our customers and their projects," Granite Materials Manager Ric Skinner said. "It's exciting to be partnered with CDE to build a plant that does exactly that."

"Projects of this scale require all parties to pull together, with meticulous planning, attention to detail and commitment," Plant Manager Stormy Watne said. "We are very proud of our new wash plant and look forward to welcoming everyone to tour our operations."

CDE Business Development Manager Ryan O'Loan elaborated, "The Salt Lake City metropolitan area is expanding at a rapid rate and resources are in high demand, which is the backdrop to this important Grantsville development. Granite's latest materials operation can ensure a consistent and reliable supply of sand and aggregates in the local market for many years to come, and we're proud that it will be CDE technology that underpins the operation to help maximize its lifespan and realize its potential.

"With companies like Granite investing in CDE's materials washing solutions, together we can address the global sand shortages, through proven design, efficient processing, optimized operations."

The open house event takes place on Wednesday, Oct. 23 from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. (MT).
