    Pocono Township, Pennsylvania held a meeting on March 3, 2026 with township officials and representatives from Core 5 Blasting, construction contractors, the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), and blast monitoring consultants to discuss blasting operations at the Muschlitz site. Key points addressed included confirmation that all blasts remain well below DEP allowable thresholds and permit limits, with seismograph data provided as verification; the township is installing four seismograph monitoring points despite permit requirements for only one; and air horn alerts are intended for on-site worker safety rather than public notification, though vibration limits are set to prevent structural damage to nearby properties. The meeting emphasized that ground vibration regulatory limits have been established to ensure that any off-site vibrations will not cause cosmetic damage to interior finishes, which are the most sensitive indicators of blast impact.
