Water-Resource and Road-Condition Monitoring of Alternative Treatments for Road Deicing
Introduction The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) is evaluating alternative treatments for road deicing with the goal of reducing the impact of this activity on the State’s water resources. The NYSDOT has requested support from the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS) in monitoring the effects of these alternative treatments on the water resources. In the past, the USGS has...
Chloride Regression Model and Mass Balance for Different Deicing Salt Application Rates on Three Watersheds in Essex County, New York Chloride Regression Model and Mass Balance for Different Deicing Salt Application Rates on Three Watersheds in Essex County, New York
This data release contains tabular data for a regression model used to estimate daily mean chloride concentration from specific conductance, road salt application data, and mass balance data for a study of road salt runoff in Essex County, New York. Road salt application rates were provided by the New York State Department of Transportation (NYS DOT) and the Town of North Elba, NY. Data...
An evaluation of the effects of different deicing salt application rates on three watersheds in Essex County, New York An evaluation of the effects of different deicing salt application rates on three watersheds in Essex County, New York
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the New York State Department of Transportation, evaluated the effects of different deicing salt application rates on surface water, groundwater, and highway runoff quality near State highways in northern New York. Three reaches of State highways were tested with different deicing treatments between October 2019 and November 2022: a salt...
