Default Winter Tree Damage from Road Salt

I have noticed that my nice stand of pines at the edge of our property beside a town road seems to have a huge amount of brown needles. i see this along many roads, including many trees on RT93 close to the road. My suspicion, not based an any facts however, is that the use of brine for winter road treatment is having a very bad impact on the trees. Anyone else seeing this? If this is true, wonder what DES is doing about it?
