Item 1.     Change in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

     On November 29, 1999, in connection with the acquisition of
the Company by Dyckerhoff Aktiengesellschaft, the Company dismissed
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as its independent accountants.  The
Company's Board of Directors participated in and approved the
decision to change independent accountants.  The Company engaged
KPMG LLP as its new independent accountants as of November 29,
1999.

     The reports of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on the financial
statements for the past two years contained no adverse opinion or
disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.

     In connection with its audits for the two most recent years
and through November 29, 1999, there have been no disagreements
with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to
the satisfaction of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP would have caused
them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial
statements for such years.

     The Registrant has requested that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
furnish it with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or
not it agrees with the above statements.  A copy of such letter,
dated December 1, 1999, is filed as Exhibit 1 to this Form 8-K.
