Sustainable Brunswick Lecture: Winter Prep & Salt Use

  • Curtis Library 23 Pleasant Street Brunswick, ME, 04011 United States (map)

Please join Sustainable Brunswick Tuesday, January 13th from 5 - 6:30 PM at Curtis Library in the Morrell Meeting Room as they welcome Bill Guindon (Mass Care Coordinator for the Maine Emergency Management Agency) and Josh Katz (previously of MDOT) for double feature presentations that dive into best practices for both ecological and personal preparedness this winter. Bill Guindon will discuss winter weather hazards and conditions faced here in Maine, cold-weather preparedness tips, and practical steps for improving personal and community preparedness. Josh Katz, leaning on his 23 years of experience with MDOT working with road salt and water supply issues, will cover the history of winter road maintenance, current practices, and the environmental impacts of road salts on your well and the local ecosystem. Curtis Library will also have various items on display from their Library of Things to inspire attendees to borrow and choose the right tools and supplies for preparedness and sustainability.
