Fire at the Aggregate Industries quarry off of Piney Meetinghouse Road near Travilah, Maryland.
According to news sources, the fire involved two liquid asphalt tanks, one tank containing used motor oil, and various other miscellaneous equipment owned by the F.O. Day Bituminous Company, which has facilities on the site. Due to its being an oil fire, they couldn't use water on the flames, so they had to get a foam unit to come out from Dulles Airport to help extinguish the fire. The fire was completely out by the evening. Fortunately, everyone on site was safely evacuated, and no one was hurt. There was also no danger to the public or the surrounding area, and a fire department spokesman likened the smoke to a bad air quality day. So at the end of the day, it was only property damage, i.e. nothing that money can't fix.

Aggregate (gravel) base layers being prepared as part of the reconstruction of an asphalt parking lot.
The gravel layer showing on the left is probably WisDOT Select Crushed Material, a relatively coarse gravel ranging from 1/8 inch to 5 inches in diameter, with at least half (by weight) greater than 1 1/2 inches in diameter. This layer was placed directly over the soil subgrade, and then rolled for compaction.
The material in the skidsteer loader bucket and in the pile is a finer aggregate, and is being spread and compacted on top of the coarse layer. It looks like a “dense graded” aggregate, probably either a “3/4 inch minus” or “1 1/4 inch minus” aggregate. Two layers of asphalt paving material will be built on top of this finer aggregate layer.

A growing literature has documented that firm dynamics exhibit substantial differences in developed and developing countries. While there is a massive turnover of firms in developed countries, such a selection mechanism is largely absent in developing countries. Understanding the determinants of firm growth, factor reallocation, and firm-level productivity, as well as the link between firm and industry dynamics is key to shed light on performances of aggregate economies. This conference will have prominent researchers present their recent work on the subject and foster a conversation among scholars that use different approaches to understand firm and industry dynamics and their aggregate implications.
