Sanitation dept melting snow away
As I went about my daily commute to work, I saw an entire New York City block blocked off to melt snow. Below is a picture I took of a snow melting machine (not sure what the real name of this machine is). Snow is thrown into this unit from the top – which then melts and pushes water into the sewer system. I believe this water then is filtered before it goes to wherever it goes. This sure beats pushing snow off into the nearby rivers and polluting them.
