Guidelines for the Use of Synthetic Fluid Dust Control Palliatives on Unpaved Roads [PDF]
, 2017 The amount of small soil particles, dust, lost from typical unpaved roads to fugitive dust is staggering. A 1 km stretch of unpaved road can contribute over 2400 kg of dust to the atmosphere (4.2 ton/mile) in a typical 3-month summer season.
