Open house shows Westfield brine and salt savings
Westfield Township Roads Department showcased Accubatch and Epoke brine systems at an open house with Epoke and Cargill reps. Supervisor Lee Evans explained brine production costs fall from 30 to 6 cents per gallon, saving salt and money. The townships’ two Epoke spreaders and a 175 gallon unit, plus five 6,000 gallon storage tanks, enable self made brine for road treatment. Evans cited a $75,000 EPA H2Ohio grant and noted 52 Ohio communities received similar funds totaling 2.7 million. EPA warns salt-related water quality issues rise as roads stay salted.
