Wait until the EPA 'dust regulations' take effect, and they will need to coat or tar all the gravel roads to comply....

Now, what are the 'savings' of taking a tar road & returning it to a gravel road? I heard a couple years ago tar was kinda expensive, are they selling off the millings and this is the 'savings' they have?
Gravel needs a grader & replacement gravel about every year, tar road doesn't need much for 10 years, then just crack sealer every 3 years or so. Perhaps a skim coat every 20 years or so.

The expense is in getting it layered down the first time.
