Nope, we put filtered waste oil on our driveway as recent at mid '90s. Some times it almost looked paved.
We also tried a substance for treating gravel roads. It was supposed to pull moisture from the air to keep dust down. In practice not enough humidity in NorCal during the summer for it to be effective, but it did turn into a mud slog during winter until the stuff finally dissipated.
With water shortages it becomes lesser evils - EPA comes after you for dumping waste oil, water district fines you for illegal uses of water, or code fines you for the massive dust problem. Chose your poison.
Right before I left they got a couple loads of left over asphalt from a paving project. Boss was/is friends with local trucking company. They get stuck with a load of hot mix at end of shift and have to dump it before it cools and sets in the trucks. We take it off their hands. No, didn't pave the road (would only have been a few yards of a 1 mile long drive). But mixed into gravel it does cut down the dust considerably.
