On August 4, 2018, a new project area for the Auerrind project was inaugurated in the nature reserve „Hammer Aue“ in Groß-Rohrheim as part of a festive ceremony. With the support of private donors, the Bergstraße district, the higher nature conservation authority, the municipality and the local heritage association Heimatverein Groß-Rohrheim, as well as the Förderkreis Große Pflanzenfresser im Kreis Bergstraße e.V., a small breeding group of the Auerrind project will initially be established on ten hectares and will ensure an increase in biodiversity in the areas. As part of the inauguration ceremony, the first two heifers were moved to the project area; the number of animals is to be increased to a total of four over the next four weeks.

The Darmstadt Regional Council (RP) has approved a 16.5-hectare expansion of the Groß-Rohrheim gravel pit owned by Alois Omlor GmbH for 2025. Part of the project in Groß-Rohrheim also involved deepening the existing pit. This will reduce the need for new land. The raw materials are extracted using wet extraction with a suction dredger. During the extraction process, the soil layers covering the groundwater are removed, sand and gravel are taken from the groundwater-saturated area, thereby creating a body of water – or, as in this case, expanding one.
