MS4 Winter

Winter Water Conservation

What you can do to protect our local streams and creeks this winter:

  • Dispose of shoveled snow in vegetated areas. Never dump it into streets or streams.
  • Use safe and effective salt alternatives for ice, like salt-free de-icers, kitty litter or sand.
  • The sooner you shovel, the better! Less ice will form and you won't have to use as much de-icer.
  • Salt piles should be stored under a roof. Report uncovered salt piles to the DEP at: 484-250-5900.
