Milwaukee Riverkeeper invites winter maintenance professionals to participate in two FREE Snow and Ice Removal Workshops led by Minnesota’s Fortin Consulting. Due to COVID19, this event will be held virtually, tune in from the comforts of home or view as a small group.
Participants can choose to attend one or both of our winter maintenance workshops. Wednesday’s workshop will be catered to maintenance on roadways, while Thursday’s workshop will focus on parking lot and sidewalk application. All attendees will learn state of the art winter maintenance practices, including how to transition to liquid deicers and to reduce overall salt application.
The workshops are part of a larger grant-supported effort funded by Fund for Lake Michigan to increase awareness of the impact of winter deicing activities on local waterways through Milwaukee Riverkeeper’s public education and monitoring work. That means, there is NO COST to attend!
After successful completion of the workshop, participating contractors will receive certification in snow and ice control best practices!
