It is the intent of this specification to describe a mixture of Sodium Chloride Type “A” crushed rock salt treated with Liquid Magnesium Chloride and OBPE Patent #4,676,918 or New Jersey Turnpike Authority approved equivalent. The liquid treatment is intended to enhance the performance of the regular rock salt over untreated salt by reducing corrosiveness, improving low temperature performance, reducing bounce and scatter, preventing clumping, salt pile freezing and enhancing flow ability. The treated salt is handled, spread and stored by using the same equipment that is used for untreated salt. The intended use of the treated salt is to facilitate snow and ice prevention and removal on New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway roadways, bridges parking lots and sidewalks.
