In case you need more road salt, they are making more here in Bonaire, N.A.

Salt piles coming off the conveyor belt.
Reddish ponds are condenser ponds where salt is concentrating. When the water dries out, they harvgest the salt. Ocean water is pumped into evaporation ponds, then when it concentrates some gets pumped into condenser ponds and is the reddish color, then finally dries to harvest.

Use a harvester that is pulled behind a dozer that picks up and conveys salt into waiting center dump trucks. Front loader and grader cleans up scraps and loads. Grader drags bottom down smooth before pumping evaporator pond water back into the condenser pond to strat the process of drying all over. Desert climate here. Always wind.

Same conveyor system loads the salt onto ships for north bound areas that get way too much snow. No snow here.

fantastic diving
