From being a Northerner, my mother remembers salt being poured on the roads to prevent vehicles from sliding. This winter is definitely no exception. Once the salt mixes with the snow in the area, the snow cannot be dumped any bodies of water to help eliminate the storage problem. The salty snow becomes a pollutant with the high amount of sodium. So the salt melts into the ground, polluting the earth anyway. At some point the rain and the water runoff will cause the water bodies to become polluted anyway.
