However, Hawkeswood Mining owner Andrew Hawkeswood said working with the community "was the very least they could do"
Should the council decide the consent had to be publicly notified, the company would withdraw the application as the quarry would no longer be economically viable, he said.
That would result in the cost of the application of ranging anywhere from $700,000 to $1 million.
It was estimated the quarry would maybe make $500 a day, meaning to pay for a fully notified consent could take 15 to 20 years to get their money back, he said.
After a meeting with the community where people expressed concerns about the proposed daily movements of 100 trucks through Millers Flat village and the effect on the town’s historic bridge and the dust produced.
Mr Hawkeswood said the company requested amendments to the quarry consent’s operational hours as well as the number of trucks going to and from the mine.
The consent was amended to reduce the proposed daily movements of trucks to 20.
"I don't believe we'll sell more than five trucks a day, anyway."
As well as the change to truck movements, changes to the quarry's proposed operational hours were also proposed.
The new proposed hours would be Monday to Friday, 7.30am to 5pm.
No gravel extracting, processing or sales would occur on weekends or public holidays but machinery maintenance that occurred on site might still take place outside those core hours.
Mr Hawkeswood said the company was yet to hear about whether or not the consent would be notified or non-notified.
"[It’s] hurry up and wait ... they'll tell us in good time."
The company hoped to hear back about the application soon and in the meantime would keep working with the community, he said.
