Model Ordinances
The DuPage River Salt Creek Workgroup (DRSCW) developed this Model Facilities Plan for Snow and Ice Control to aid facility managers in developing a plan for winter operations protocols for snow and ice control at their facilities.
The DRSCW created this model plan as part of its Chloride Education and Reduction Program. Winter snow and ice control operations have been determined to be significant sources of chloride loading to area waters (chloride from road salt, for example). The DRSCW provides training and resources for facility managers and staff on ways to provide essential facility services while using best management practices to reduce chloride usage.
