Ash Grove Cement off of Central Parkway Moultrie is the second largest cement company in the entire state. It is the sixth largest in the entire country. It runs 24/7 365 days a year, lights noise and all. The 200 foot silos are never going away. So enjoy.

Fine Silica Dust- It might surprise you to know that concrete and cement dust contains silica. If you don't know much about silica, in dust form, it's deadly. Silica dust is one of the biggest killers of construction workers, second to asbestos.

Those risks could be abated by just wearing a mask while you enjoy your activities outside.
