30-min Webinar - The Wisconsin DNR Tackles a Salty Problem

Winter salt and deicers are common water pollutants. Once extracted from the safety of the earth and connected with water, chlorides persist indefinitely with only one tsp of road salt needed to permanently pollute 5 gallons of freshwater. Salt Awareness Week features experts in hydrology, biogeochemistry, public health, and conservation that will discuss facets of this issue that impacts your community.

Day 4: The Wisconsin DNR Tackles a Salty Problem: Wisconsin DNR Stormwater Section Manager, Shannon Haydin will share how the DNR is handling increases in chloride levels in our surface and groundwater.
