He advised that on new concrete, salt or any othey commercial deicing agents damage the new concrete. How- ever, this will not be immediately apparent. It will be ap- parent by delaminating and spalling next spring. The Hickey Company is responsible for snow control this winter. The merchants should be cautioned, admonished, directed, or whatever the Commissioners and /or staff feel will be appro- priate, that the merchants themselves do not place any deicing agent on that concrete. Mr. Lennon advised this is being stated publicly and will be menti ned at the Downtown Council meeting this afternoon. This vill further be discussed at the next construction meet- ing T esday with the consultants and contractor. Mr. Wade requested for Mr. Lennon to find out what can be used so we are not involved in any litigation. Also Mr. Wiggins reque ted to contact Phil Simonds as he had recommended various chemi al agents that can be applied to any and all of these surfa es to protect them from this type of problem. Mr. Lennon said a will follow through on this this afternoon.
