Dust control coming to gravel roads Washington County’s De- partment of Land Use and Transportation will apply dust control treatment on some rural gravel roads over the next few weeks. The treatment helps to reduce traffic-generated dust and, even more importantly, contributes to traffic safety. Dust control treatment increas- es surface stability and thus motorist safety on curves and hills where traffic patterns and volumes cause corrugated or otherwise rough road surfaces. Although dust control treat- ment has historically been re- ferred to as “dust oil,” it is not a petroleum product. It is an envi- ronmentally safe by-product from pulp mills. Dust control treatment contributes to envi- ronmental quality by reducing air-borne dust which can con- taminate air and water. With limited resources, the county treats only the most no- torious spots where wash- boarded surfaces present par- ticular driving issues. However, rural residents themselves can choose to pay for dust control on their county-maintained gravel roads. They must first obtain a no-cost dust control permit from the county. The permit coordinates county road grading with private contractor application of the dust control material. The permit also en- sures that only environmentally Are you ready for somthing safe products are used and that they are applied appropri- ately. The dust control permit is free of charge to the property owner or resident; call 503- 846-ROAD (846-7623) or e- mail lutops@co.washington.or. us for a permit. Motorists can help reduce traffic-generated dust by driv- ing more slowly on gravel roads. Excessive speed in- creases dust which can dam- age nearby crops. Driving too fast on gravel also causes washboarding and damages the road surface, increasing the taxpayers’ costs for mainte- nance. RELIABLE?
