Winter weather can bring snow, sleet, freezing rain, and ice to your doorstep. City, county, and state governments are typically responsible for keeping public roads clear and safe during these winter weather events, but if you live in a private home (even as a renter) you’re probably responsible for clearing ice and snow from your driveway, the area around your mailbox, and the sidewalk adjacent to your home. Use your salt smarts to keep your home safe while also protecting water quality this winter season.
