Environmentally friendly de-icing products that will not damage concrete or metal and will help protect the environment, must be used on all roadways, parking lots, concrete entrances, walkways and steps, to prevent ice build-ups. This also applies to any sand/de-icing mixtures. Chemicals and/or sand shall be used to reduce safety hazards due to ice and snow. All chemicals used shall at a minimum comply with State environmental regulations and local codes. The Contractor shall ensure there is an adequate supply of chemicals and sand on site or readily available to cover unexpected snow and ice occurrences.
