Pennsylvania HB664 mandates the creation of a Road Salt Management Best Practices Guide to minimize environmental impacts from road salt runoff.

Pennsylvania HB664 amends the State Highway Law to require the Department of Transportation to develop a Road Salt Management Best Practices Guide. The guide will establish best practices to protect the environment from road salt, identify activities that may release road salt, and consider highway safety. It will also set standards for identifying areas vulnerable to road salt, establish response procedures for uncontrolled releases, and recommend a training program for winter maintenance personnel. The guide will be updated annually and made publicly available online.
