Title

  • Chloride Usage Education and Reduction Program Study: Final Report

Description

  • This Chloride Usage Education and Reduction Program Study addresses the quantity of chloride applied in the watersheds of Salt Creek and the East and West Branches of DuPage River. These watersheds are located in northeastern Illinois, centered in DuPage County. Portions of the watersheds also extend into Cook, Will and Kane Counties. In response to the TMDLs adopted for their watersheds, a group of communities, environmental organizations, publicly owned treatment works and other concerned parties came together to form the DuPage River Salt Creek Workgroup (DRSCW). The DRSCW appointed a Chloride Subcommittee, under whose direction this study was initiated to evaluate current road salting practices and to recommend alternative practices for the reduction of chloride loading to the watersheds, to help comply with the chloride TMDLs.
