There is no decision yet on a controversial mining project in Fresno County.

The planning commission got an earful from those against the Jesse Morrow Mountain project north of Highway 180.

The Fresno County Planning Commission is considering a conditional use permit for a gravel mine on the mountain.

There was no decision because of the length of the public comments.

Sara Engdahl, a spokesperson for Cemex USA said, "I think a lot of the initial concerns are understandable, but CEMEX is taking steps that we mitigate a lot of those issues. All of our operations are heavily regulated and we abide by those rules."

No exact date was set for the next hearing on the project, but it's expected to happen next month.
