If you study that doc, you will see that it is a pilot project to study the effects of salt use. They are only doing it in three places in WA (none of which are passes):
I-90 between the I-82 interchange (just east of Ellensburg) to the Columbia River Bridge at Vantage
I-90 between the Grant/Adams county line (just east of Moses Lake) to the Lincoln/Spokane county line
SR 6 between Chehalis and Raymond
So if you drive anywhere else you should just encounter the other cr@p. BTW, the site answered my question - they spray liquid brine unless there is actually snow or ice on the surface, in which case they switch to rock salt. This is the first winter for this test.
