Moderate ice storm could cause city to use all available street salt
TULSA, Ok. - AM 740 and FM 102.3 News/Talk KRMG's Steve Berg reports the Public Works Department is already 50-percent over budget on overtime for snowplow drivers and 100-percent over budget for materials like salt and sand. And they're really dreading the possibility of an ice storm. Dan Crossland says that requires a lot more salt than a snow storm does. Crossland says, "If we get an ice storm, it takes a lot more salt to deal with that. It's not a situation, generally, where we can plow it." They've got 8,000 tons of salt on hand, but he says that will go very quickly if we get even a moderate ice storm.
