Non-explosion conjecture for the interacting particle process

Let HrH_r be the state space of height configurations and let X~r(z,z)\widetilde X^{(z,z')}_r be the Markov process on HrH_r whose deterministic component evolves each height according to v(y)=y(y+1)v(y)=y(y+1) until it reaches rr, while its stochastic component causes the drops specified by the point configuration and neighboring heights. Non-explosion conjecture. The process X~r(z,z)\widetilde X^{(z,z')}_r on HrH_r does not explode and so has infinite life time almost surely. The claim concerns the global well-definedness of this interacting piecewise deterministic Markov process; the supplied text presents it as plausible but gives no proof or resolution.
