Abstract
This article examines the mechanisms involved in snow pollutant accumulation and the movement of various pollutants from the snowpack. With this knowledge practitioners can plan management actions to anticipate changing flows and pollutant concentrations. Techniques that can be incorporated include the designation of "salt-free" areas near key streams and wetlands, and dumping plowed snow in pervious areas where melt water can infiltrate.
