    Loon Lake West Shore by Mike Grinnell

    This limited reading is for a project I am working on with the Ontario Ministry of Transportation to reduce road salt getting into the lake where I live. The MTO has been trying different methods of applying sodium chloride to the road surface near the lake. The MTO estimates that by using Direct Liquid Application that they can reduce road saltdeposition by 20%. My readings let them know how they are doing!
