Jill, that makes complete sense -- just the little that the local snow plows shove up on our lawns indicates that dumping in Lake Ontario would polute. We've had a car parked at the top of the driveway for 48 hrs now, just in case of emergency -- and the snow plow came through to scrape the icey slush aside 'round about 7:00am, flinging it up all over the windshield and hood of the car! Obviously we can't hose it down until the weather improves.. but that salt and sand corrodes.
