Total land designated and zoned for sand and gravel extraction in the metropolitan area <br /> and immediately adjacent sub-areas appears adequate for demand through the planning <br /> period. <br /> <br />13. Sand and gravel deposits are an important natural resource necessary for construction in <br /> the metropolitan area. Nevertheless, the extraction of sand and gravel can conflict with <br /> other open space and recreation values associated with water resources, vegetation, <br /> wildlife habitat, and scenic quality. Proper rehabilitation and reuse of abandoned sand <br /> and gravel sites results in the return of valuable land for urban uses, including open space. <br /> <br />Exhibit B: Proposed amendments to Chapter III-C, Environmental Resources Element,Page 18 of 25 <br />of the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Plan (Metro Plan). <br /> <br /> <br />
