Gilmore Townsite Dust Suppressant Application – July 2024

Jul 22, 2024Jul 23, 2024

On July 22-23, 2024, a dust suppressant will be applied to the Gilmore townsite rights-of-way. The suppressant, magnesium chloride, is typically used as a temporary measure to mitigate dust caused by wind and vehicle traffic on dirt and gravel. A similar application was made in August 2023 and May 2024. At the Gilmore townsite, dust coming from the rights-of-way contains harmful contamination of lead and other metals. These applications are funded and directed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
