The City of New York Department of Sanitation
The City of New York Department of Sanitation 2014-2015 Winter Snow Plan for the Borough of Brooklyn Pursuant to Local Law 28 of 2011 Kathryn Garcia, Commissioner November 2014 FY 15 BOROUGH SNOW PLAN The Department of Sanitation (DSNY) Borough Snow Plan describes measures DSNY will take to fight winter weather, clear streets for safe transportation, and address issues of public safety related to snow and ice conditions. This document is published pursuant to the requirements set forth under Local Law 28 of 2011. I. INTRODUCTION The Department of Sanitation keeps New York City healthy, safe, and clean by collecting, recycling, and disposing of waste, cleaning streets and vacant lots, and clearing ice and snow. A critical component of this mission is to clear snow and ice from New York City’s more than 19,000 lane-miles of roadways in a prompt, reliable, and equitable manner. Winter conditions on the City’s roadways introduce potential hazards to all forms of travel. Snow, ice, and other winter weather can impede first responders, temporarily close businesses and schools, and restrict the mobility of all New Yorkers. Snowfall can be expected to lead to the disruption of normal traffic patterns and public transportation. In prolonged or severe snowfall, disruption can last for extended periods of time. While DSNY makes every reasonable effort to clear snow and ice from the City’s highways and streets as quickly and effectively as possible, it can be a lengthy process, particularly when persistent or heavy snowfall occurs combined with falling temperatures and high winds. This Snow Plan concentrates on the planning, organization and response to winter weather conditions, the execution of operational tasks to perform salt spreading on roadways, and the plowing, piling, hauling, and melting of significant snow accumulations from the City’s roadways. -
SOP. MI-1 Winter Road Maintenance
SOP. MI-1 Winter Road Maintenance Description This SOP outlines procedures for the storage and application of salt and sand to roadways to control snow and ice and was prepared to meet the requirements of the 2016 MA Small MS4 General Permit (2016 MS4 Permit). The 2016 MS4 Permit requires the municipality to: • Establish procedures for the storage of salt and sand; • Establish procedures to minimize the use of sodium chloride and other salts; • Evaluate the use of alternative materials; and • Ensure that snow disposal activities do not result in disposal of snow into waters of the United States. Responsible Personnel This Winter Road Maintenance Plan is intended to be used by Town of Lynnfield staff who are responsible for snow and ice removal as shown on Figure 1. Equipment Inventory The Town owns and maintains the ice control and snow removal equipment listed in Attachment 1. General equipment maintenance is conducted in accordance with the Vehicle & Equipment Storage & Maintenance SOP (VM-1). Vehicle washing is conducted in accordance with the Vehicle & Equipment Washing SOP (VM-2). The wash bay is located in the DPW garage. Calibration All trucks are maintained using the manufacturer’s recommendations to ensure accurate application of snow and ice control materials. Calibration procedures are included in Attachment 2. Materials and Storage Materials Lynnfield uses salt for snow and ice control. Approximately 3700 tons of salt are used each year. Storage All snow and ice removal materials are stored in a covered shed at the DPW Yard. Snow Removal Route Lynnfield has 23 snow routes as shown in Figure 2. -

CITY of OSHKOSH SNOW & ICE REMOVAL POLICY Revised 2-20-19
CITY OF OSHKOSH SNOW & ICE REMOVAL POLICY Revised 2‐20‐19 In order for a snow and ice removal program to be effective, a written policy must be established. This policy will guide personnel of the Street Division of the Department of Public Works concerned with deicing, plowing, and snow removal efforts. It not only gives snow removal crews a set of guidelines to follow, but also informs the general public of the procedures being followed so they may have a better understanding of the city’s snow removal efforts. This document is the official policy for snow removal for the City of Oshkosh. All existing ordinances regarding snow removal from sidewalks, and parking regulations for snow emergencies remain in effect, and are considered a necessary part of the overall snow removal plan. The City of Oshkosh will strive to maintain safe conditions for drivers observing winter driving conditions. However, this is not an absolute “bare pavement” policy. It must be recognized that, although this policy sets general guidelines to be followed, each storm has its own character with variable conditions such as wind, extreme temperatures, timing, duration, and moisture content. The policy must remain flexible and take into consideration these variables. DETERMINATION OF NEED FOR SNOW & ICE CONTROL PROCEDURES The Street Division on call supervisors shall generally keep themselves apprised of changing weather conditions. However, the Department of Public Works relies heavily on the observations of Police Department personnel and various Internet weather sites to alert them to road conditions any time of the day. Weather reports issued by the National Weather Service also aid in preparation of snow and ice control deployments. -
Property Owner Concrete Maintenance Guide
PROPERTY OWNER CONCRETE MAINTENANCE GUIDE Don't Let This Happen To You! Don’t Use Salts or Deicers!!!! Protect your Concrete Today. Stop in to talk to one of our experts today. The City staff has had a long experience with concrete, and will help you understand how to preserve and protect the beauty of your new concrete. Please feel free to call us anytime at (541)962-1325 if you have questions about caring for your concrete. Once your concrete driveway, patio, walkways or other project is completed, some simple care and maintenance measures will help assure you of a long life of beauty and service. The City of La Grande Public Works Department wants to share our knowledge of the care and maintenance of concrete with you. Once we're done, we'll help you understand how to care for the completed surface. It all starts as soon as the concrete crews and equipment are gone. Concrete is an amazing material. Soft and easy to manipulate during installation, it soon sets into a solid, stone-like material. This process called setting and curing, doesn't happen instantly, however. While the concrete will become firm and hard fairly quickly, it remains relatively weak until completely cured, normally 28 days after placing, a process that can take quite some time, depending on temperature and other conditions. How you treat your new concrete will affect it for years to come. Quick Tips Although concrete is an extremely durable product, the following care and maintenance guidelines will add to the value of your investment: • Do not apply deicing chemicals for snow and ice removal during the winter freezing periods. -

Snow and Ice Control Route Optimization Study Results
2018 Snow and Ice Control Route Optimization Study Results 2018 Snow & Ice Control Study Results 1.0 Executive Summary Providing a safe and efficient transportation system for motorists is an important outcome of the snow and ice control operations process. North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) team members work on our mission to safely move people and goods daily and always pursue advancements and efficiencies with snow and ice control operations. Through the years NDDOT has explored route and section optimization to meet the changing needs of state residents. Prior to the 1960s the department had approximately 135 section locations, excluding the District Headquarters for road maintenance. Over time and with the use of innovative equipment, material modifications and computer technology we have reduced our section locations throughout the state to 61. Senate Bill 2012 contained a provision that required NDDOT to study the manner in which it provides snow and ice control services and potential savings available in providing these services. In late 2017, NDDOT hired a contractor, C2Logix, to conduct a technical analysis of current snow and ice control routes. The department created a team to work with the contractor and provide information about current services and pertinent parameters to analyze routes plus level of service. Levels of service and cycle times were two important criteria used in analyzing the optimized routes. The contractor and NDDOT worked closely together and went through several iterations of optimizations before deciding on a final run showing the need for 327 routes to cover the highways that we are responsible for. The optimization model created uniform cycle times based on levels of service across the state.
