Abstract:

While we can’t keep it from blowing, there are ways to influence the wind that carries tons ; of blowing and drifting snow. Periodically, severe winter storms will create large snow ; drifts that close roads and driveways, isolate farmsteads and increase snowplowing. Many ; of these drifting problems happen in the same place year after year. ; Although there are no foolproof methods of wind and snow control, properly designed and ; maintained snow fences can reduce or eliminate these problem areas. This publication ; discusses the benefits of snow fence, then examines the types used by the Iowa Department ; of Transportation. Finally, it provides information about how you can get involved in the ; DOT’s Cooperative Snow Fence Program.
