Chloride Work Group Policy Proposal for Minnesota Recommendations for addressing chloride in municipal wastewater effluent

Chloride Work Group Policy Proposal for Minnesota Recommendations for addressing chloride in municipal wastewater effluent

2017

Minnesota has a growing salty water problem that threatens its fresh-water fish and other aquatic life, despite being more than 1,000 miles from the nearest ocean. Salt – from chloride – can also impact groundwater used for drinking. It takes only one teaspoon of salt to permanently pollute five gallons of water. Once in the water, it is very difficult to remove the chloride.
