These two snowplowing techniques have been time-and

operation-tested. Use them as guidelines for most

snowplowing strategies. Plan I is for smaller areas of 50,000

sq.ft. or less. Plan II is for larger establishments having more

than 50,000 sq.ft. to be cleared.

PLAN I (less than 50,000 sq. ft.)

Recommended equipment: A vehicle (either four-wheel drive

utility or truck) with snowplow, snow shovels, chemicals.

Recommended procedure: PLOW WITH THE STORM.

Begin plowing at the suggested accumulation for your type of

establishment (i.e., 1" for commercial and institutional areas; 2"

for industrial establishments; 3" for municipal and residential

areas.) Continue until snow has been cleared. Don't forget -

snowfall often surpasses weather forecasts. A well planned

clearing schedule will help prevent the necessity for expensive

emergency action.

A typical small-area strategy:

1. Keep in touch with local weather forecasts for preparatory

measures.

2. Notify scheduled personnel.

3. Have vehicles and equipment inspected, fueled and ready.

4. Clear area by pushing snow first to sides of drives, around

perimeters of parking areas and away from loading docks

and platforms. It is often true that the smaller the

establishment, the greater the proportion of "trapped" areas

which will require snow to be hauled away. Always deposit

snow as far back as possible for greatest use of dumping

areas.

5. Use snow shovels to clear walks, gates and doorways.

6. Treat with snow-melting chemicals as needed.

PLAN II (over 50,000 sq.ft.)

Recommended equipment: The suggested number of vehicles,

according to the Table "Average Hourly Snow Clearing

Capacities,” on page 24, with snowplows; front-end loaders if

needed; snow shovels and chemicals.

Recommended procedure: As always, PLOW WITH THE

STORM. Begin plowing at the suggested accumulation for the

area and continue as required. Actual snowfall frequently

exceeds forecasted conditions. Well-planned snow clearance

strategy reduces the chances for expensive emergency action.
