Is anyone familiar with how rad salt affects compost  used in erosion 
control (berms, socks or blankets)t?

Is it possible for salt laden water running through berms or filter socks 
to be captured in the cation exchange process or does it flow on through?

Any protection for plants from salt damage as a result of using compost?
