CLR works really good. Just flush the area really well with water when done. I had bad stains from water getting under my garage door and wetting the steel dust under my belt sander. CLR took it right off. Home Depot sells a generic version in gallon jugs.

Apple cider vinegar works well on rust.

Be mindful of any possible restrictions on run off.

just a wild *** thought but what about putting paper towels down on the concrete and then saturating it with Evaporust, cover with a plastic sheet and let it sit for a few hours. then just rinse away with a hose. It's environmentally safe so should not hurt your grass.

Another thing is iron-x it's a car detailing product that will remove it for sure. But it stinks like nothing else.
