A major quarry and cement plant in the hills west of Cupertino that have built freeways, dams and buildings across Northern California for generations — but also sparked controversy over pollution and noise — could be purchased and shut down by Santa Clara County, under a plan made public Thursday.

Santa Clara County Supervisor Joe Simitian announced a proposal to require Santa Clara County officials to issue a report in 90 days spelling out options for purchasing the Lehigh Hanson property, including negotiating with its owners or seizing the land by eminent domain.
