#BeSaltSmart and recognize when you should keep the salt in the shaker!

When it is less than 15°F salt won't melt ice. It's better to scrape the ice off with a metal-edge shovel. You can put down environmentally friendly sand or native bird seed for traction.

I'll take an order of snow, but hold the extra salt! One 12-ounce coffee mug can cover 10 sidewalk squares!

Salt can cause cracking in brick and concrete, while excess salt may wash off into water sources and disrupt the health of the ecosystem.

Don't let your favorite meals cause a disaster!

When cooking, never pour fats, oil and grease (FOG) down the drain. More than 80% of clogs that occur in Prince William Water’s sewer lines are the result of FOG being poured down drains.
