Dust Control Program

During the MD’s dust suppression season you may notice trucks on the gravel roads applying a dark colored liquid. This is a method of stabilizing the light materials on the surface of a gravel road. Once applied, the dust that would normally be generated from passing vehicles is minimized.
 
The product the MD of Pincher Creek uses is called MG-30. MG30 is a calcium chloride derivative manufactured at the Ward Chemical upgrader facility in Villeneuve Alberta. This non-corrosive product is designed specifically for base stabilization with the added benefits of dust control. MG30 acts as a clay-enhancing agent and subsequently performs well with silty and sandy base conditions. The chemical makeup of MG30 encroaches into the soil allowing for higher compaction ratings by removing air and moisture voids from the soil. This creates a stronger, longer lasting road. Combine this product with any of our dust suppression products to achieve long lasting results.
 
Benefits of MG30for Dust Control Application:

MG30 Environmental Impact: At MG30, they care about protecting the environment and reducing the environmental impact. All product is kept at a safe concentration level that is gentle on the environment and has been proven by Alberta Transportation to be non-hazardous and does not require any placarding during transportation.

To apply to have dust control on your road, fill out the attached form by no later than May 1 of that year.
