“How do US cities get rid of snow? “
Sacrifices to the Sun God.
Call Mr.Plow,
That’s my name,
That name again
is Mr. Plow.
Around here we call that June.
I always liked how some commentator referred to Washington, DC’s snow removal plan: Spring.
Something to do with using up the year's snow removal budget, I suppose.
Last time I was in Boston, the harbor was still part of the Atlantic Ocean.
That would be a tall order to make ocean water safe to drink, but I would not put it past some of these Federal Dictators Judges we have today. ~;))
I don’t know why Boston wouldn’t dump the snow straight into the harbour. For one, I can’t imagine that the harbour is that pristine that whatever might be in the snow would be a major detriment to it. Also, wherever they pile the snow, when it finally melts I bet it goes in to the storm sewers, which probably go straight into the harbour too.
Pass a law.
In the old days they used put it in the harbor....but with global warming you know...
They should load it on trains and send it out West to some low lakes and what-not. Or build a water pipeline to the West.
“Reduce, reuse, recycle of course.”
LMAO.
LOL!
So, this judge was not a fan of the song “Dirty Water” by the Standells, I take it?
Thanks for pointing out the obvious. Series!
The snow should be stored in a giant cooler and rationed to the poor in summer.
You get the admin mods to delete it extra snow.
Maybe there's room for the snow on top of their offices...
“Dump in Ocean.”
That’s what I was thinking. Maybe the holdup up is because an Environmental Impact study is required first?
Love that dirty water!…We just got rid of the wind farm in Nantucket Sound. Here in
Assachusetts have the most idiotic Liberals ever !
It is always a contradiction..Logic does NOT reign here.
Dirty water was a song..btw.. not my anthem.
rain goes into the waste treatment center through the storm sewers. It is treated just like household sewer water. That is a requirement from the EPA.
This has been a serious problem for older water and sewer systems through out the country, particularly in the East and Great Lakes States. Large water events have caused the overflow of sewers directly into the lakes or oceans. This happens less than a handful of times a year and the water is clear within days. Yet because of this we have to spend billions to comply with new regulations.
Your EPA at work.
