Aggregate Industries Restores Endangered Historic Manor

Receives Prestigious Award for Community Engagement/Corporate Responsibility
FREDERICKSBURG, Va.--(Business Wire)--
Hayfield Manor is a Pre-Revolutionary Georgian manor built on the banks of the
Rappahannock River that had been crumbling into disrepair for decades. This
historic property represents 150 years of building technology, innovation, and
history. The manor was vandalized, and on the Association for the Preservation
of Virginia Antiquities` most endangered list. Then Aggregate Industries stepped
in--donating their significant resources in the building materials industry to
stabilizing and renovating the property beginning in 2006.

Hayfield Manor offers visitors an opportunity to learn about Virginia`s history
prior to the Revolutionary War and during the Civil War, as well as the effects
of changing transportation and socioeconomic conditions on architecture and land
uses. After extensive input and support from the Fredericksburg community, the
totally renovated Hayfield Manor is available for viewing, as well as for
special events. In addition, the manor's renovation just received a prestigious
award.

The National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) has awarded Aggregate
Industries Management, Inc., and this project one of its 2009 Gold Level NSSGA
Community Relations Awards. Aggregate Industries is an environmentally
responsible producer of high quality construction materials. The company employs
more than 4,000 people in 16 states and operates more then 300 sites.

This award recognizes the commitment and dedication of Aggregate Industries in
the areas of community relations and corporate responsibility and specifically,
the company`s commitment to the Fredericksburg, Virginia community.

NSSGA is the preeminent trade association for the stone, sand and gravel
industry. The organization has been recognizing excellence in the area of
community relations with its award for 20 years. This honor recognizes aggregate
producers who represent their commitment and support of activities that
positively portray the aggregate industry. NSSGA states that `The ultimate goal
of the Excellence in Community Relations award program is improvement of the
public`s perception of both local crushed stone, sand and gravel operations and
the aggregates industry."

Each of the entries were judged on seven criteria: community participation,
communication, donations and service, local and state government involvement,
educational outreach, and media relations. Hayfield Manor and Aggregate
Industries` continue to demonstrate their dedication to the community by opening
the doors of Hayfield Manor to the public for tours and events and continuing to
work on stabilization efforts, research and community outreach.

Aggregate Industries is proud of the work and commitment shown by all of the
employees who made the restoration and continual upkeep of Hayfield Manor
possible and honored to be chosen for the Gold Level NSSGA Community Relations
Award.
