I would not be worried about the salt as much as what are the impurity's in the salt. The heavy metals that are along for the ride with the salt. I would worry more about the oils and tire rubber washing in off the road ways as well.

Canada and the US uses about 40 million ton of road salt every year.

Cheers Don.
