The Butambala district Chief Administration Officer, Joseph Byaruhanga says that they wrote to the RCC head offices asking for payment for the gravels but the company has declined to respond positively.

According to Byaruhanga, RCC says that there is no law that gives the district mandate to ask for compensation when the materials mined are going to benefit the general public.

Reynolds Construction Company uses the gravels it gets from the quarries in Butambala for constructing roads.

Byaruhanga now says that the district will devise other ways to ensure that this God given treasure benefits the people of Butambala in a special way.

He says that RCC gets a lot of money from government therefore it has to pay for the gravels.
