"---" indicates that no data was submitted for this field

Has the institution implemented technologies or strategies to reduce the environmental impacts of snow and ice removal?:
Yes

A brief description of the snow and ice removal program, policy, or practice:

One of our strategies is to blow snow off of walk ways to reduce the need for salt / chemical usage. By blowing off walks, we expose the pavement to sunshine which is an effective ice melt in our region. We also utilize a snow scraping blade to remove snow from roads for similar reasons as the walkways.
