VLAWMO is joining partners from across the country to spotlight the growing challenge of chloride pollution during Winter Salt Week. This week is dedicated to helping communities understand the impacts of salt and explore practical steps we can all take to keep our freshwater fresh.

Throughout the week, leading experts in environmental science, public works, engineering, and policy will share insights on smarter winter maintenance, community action, and innovative solutions already taking root. Whether you’re a resident, property manager, or simply curious about protecting local waters, there’s something for you.
