Glycol-based
deicing
fluids
are
biodegradable
in
water.
Only
gross
contamination
of slow
moving
or
restricted
bodies
of
water
would
be
likely
to
cause
any
serious environmental
impact. Typical
field-use
concentrations
of
deicing
fluids,
particularly
when
diluted
by
snow,
ice
or
water,
causes
little
or no
injury
to most
broad
leaf
plants,
grasses
perennial ground
cover,
and
woody
plants.
Minor leaks
or
spills
of
deicing/anti-icing
fluid
in
storage
areas
must
be soaked
up
with
an
absorbent
material,
such
as
sawdust,
vermiculite,
an
all-purpose
commercial
oil
absorbent,
or
sand.
Carefully
shovel
the
absorbent/deicingl
anti-icing
fluid
into
an
appropriate
container
for
disposal.
Spilled,
leaked,
or
contaminated
deicing/anti-icing
fluid
must
be
disposed
of
in
strict
compliance
with all
applicable
federal,
state
and
local
regulations
and ordinances.
Consult
local
regulations
and MSDS
for
hazards,
