In partnership with the VTCA, the Virginia Tech Center for Economic and Community Engagement (CECE) is conducting a study to determine the economic impact of the Aggregates Industry in Virginia. We’re developing a comprehensive narrative of the past, present, and future role of the industry in Virginia’s economy. This survey will provide insight into the products produced by the Aggregates industry, their costs, and circumstances surrounding their use, which will support the narrative CECE will create. 

We’d appreciate you taking 10 minutes to complete this survey. Your responses will remain confidential and be aggregated with all other responses in the final analysis. Please do not hesitate to reach out to CECE’s Sarah Lyon-Hill, Ph.D. (sarahlh@vt.edu) with any questions you may have. Thank you for your time.
