SUMMARY:Clean Water Webinar: The "Smart Salting" Strategy: Winter Maintenance Contracts that Reduce Costs and Protect Liability
DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn more about putting performance-based practices into winter maintenance contracts. Traditional ‘per-ton’ or ‘per-application’ salt contracts can inadvertently encourage over-salting\, leading to higher costs\, damaged infrastructure\, and environmental harm. This webinar provides property managers\, HOA and Condo Association board members\, etc. with a clear roadmap for transitioning to performance-based contracting—an approach that prioritizes measurable safety outcomes over the sheer volume of material used. You’ll hear from Jason Swope\, MD DC WV Coordinator of the Chesapeake Bay Landscape Professional Program and Chesapeake Conservation Landscaping Council and a leader in the world of environmentally-minded smart salting\, and from Benjamin Rhoades\, Watershed Manager and Acting Environmental Director of the Reston Association\, who has been working to put these lessons into practice in Reston\, VA. \nClick to register for this webinar
