Section 6: Recommendations for Use of Dry Chemicals
Anchor: #i1001017Timing is Critical
Timing of an initial dry solid chemical application for snowstorm events is critical. The application should be made as soon as possible after sufficient precipitation has fallen to prevent loss, but before ice bonds to the pavement.
Anchor: #i1001028Do Not Use As Pretreatment on Dry Pavement
Application of dry solid chemical onto dry pavement is not recommended, and therefore should not be used as a pretreatment.
