Past Trainings
Three trainings were held in July, 2013 throughout Michigan. The purpose of these workshops was to discuss the tools, best practices, and limitations for snow and ice control in rural and urbanizing communities in Michigan. If you want to improve your winter maintenance operations, save money, and protect the waters of the state, consider reviewing the training materials here.
Topics included salt and snow storage, anti-icing, de-icing, calibration, how chemicals work, integrating liquids into your winter maintenance program, Michigan success stories, and environmental protection.
Each participant received a free copy of a new manual on Winter Road Maintenance and a Certificate of Completion for attending and passing the training.
