A brief description of the snow and ice removal program, policy, or practice:

Snow removal practices include using EcoThaw and other products that are best for the environment. This also allows the grounds crew to use less product than other methods. Preventive matters are also taken to ensure less product is used after snow fall. Many of these products are biodegradable to ensure less damage to the environment.
