| Abstract: | Describes the use of software and other technology to monitor and manage irrigation systems, with specific descriptions of the irrigation monitoring systems used at several golf courses. Outlines potential factors to be considered when choosing an irrigation system and offers recommendations for choosing an irrigation consultant. Discusses the reduction in operating expenses possible with irrigation monitoring systems and describes some lower-budget techniques to improve irrigation efficiency. States that "selecting the right sprinkler heads, piping and other components is just as important as the central control system and software." Mentions the development of irrigation equipment. |

| Abstract: | Discusses the process of lowering the pH of irrigation water as a potential method of improving irrigation and turfgrass nutrition. Recommends regular testing of irrigation water in order to be aware of pH or other potential water quality problems. Suggests that "turfgrass prefers a soil pH [close] to 6.5." Also suggests that "maintaining optimum pH is especially helpful in dealing with localized dry spots." States that "water pH is just one part of a total management system that involves soil testing to determine the nutrients [the] turf needs and water testing to determine the effect the water is having on nutrient availability and thus [the] turf." |

| Abstract: | Compares golf course development and construction to housing development and construction. Explains that in housing development and construction, there are some construction and design issues that are necessary to maintain livable conditions while other design issues may be simply over a matter of aesthetic appeal. In weighing golf course maintenance issues against these concerns, it may result in solutions that make courses enjoyable as well as economically and environmentally efficient. Lists the various recommendations. |

| Abstract: | "Many of the states where golf course development is booming and water issues are broiling are also states where population is gaining...what that also means, though, is that those areas feel the pinch even more on their water systems. More people mean more money coming into an area, but they also mean more people washing, flushing, and needing clean drinking water. Those same areas also tend to be places where the sun sucks the water right off the turf, forcing golf courses to use more water... these trends, which seem to be converging upon each other, may change our thinking in the near future." Discusses various statistics which demonstrate the greater use of water, which is proportional to population densities. Discusses the far-reaching implications of this growth and development spurt and discusses possible ways to resolve this problem. |

| Abstract: | "A group of leading golf and environmental organizations have jointly developed a set of principles which seek to produce environmental excellence in golf course planning and siting, design, construction, maintenance and facility operations. These principles are envisioned as a tool of universal value, for national use under variety of circumstances...to provide a framework for environmental responsibility in developing goals for existing courses and for considering issues associated with new courses. They are designed to educate and inform the public and relevant decision makers about environmental responsibility, and to help set goals for environmental performance...they are not intended for use in making judgments about socio-economic issues. These prinicples assume regulatory compliance and are designed to provide opportunities to go beyond that which is required by law. These
principles were developed through a collaborative research and dialogue process, and represent a consensus of all endorsing organizations. They represent areas of agreement but do not resolve all environmental issues related to golf." |

| Abstract: | "Golf courses and the environment. No issue will have a greater effect on the way golf courses are built and maintained, now or in the future. Golf courses have been heralded as sanctuaries and condemned as waste sites, depending on your point of view. What's the truth? The game of golf needed answers to environmental questions, and the USGA wanted these answers based on scientific facts, not emotions. In 1991 the USGA initiated a three-year study to investigate the fate of pesticides and fertilizers applied to turf under golf course conditions, develop alternative (non-chemical) methods of pest control, and determine the impact of golf courses on people and wildlife. This issue of the Green Section Record contains the results of the 11 university research projects that involved pesticide and nutrient fate. The first article, by Dr. Michael Kenna, briefly describes what is
known about the fate of chemicals used on golf courses and provides some supporting documentation to help golf course personnel select a pesticide. Highlights of the research projects are summarized in his article, but the research articles themselves should be read to learn more about the particulars of each project." |

| Abstract: | "This book is a hands-on manual for designing and managing golf courses to benefit birds. This manual's organization goes from general concepts to specific suggestions. Throughout, terms that may be unfamiliar to readers are in boldface, and are defined in a glossary. Chapter 1 presents arguments for conserving birds on golf courses. Chapter 2 covers the basic principles of bird biology, including general habitat requirements. Chapter 3 is directed toward architects interested in incorporating bird habitat into a course design, and course managers who want to improve conditions for bird communities in general. Principles presented in this chapter include creation and preservation of habitat patches of suitable size, quality, and arrangement. Chapter 4 is directed toward course superintendents interested in managing specific bird species or groups of birds. Topics covered in
this chapter include managing small-scale habitat characteristics such as vegetation layers, snags, and nest boxes. Chapter 5 covers issues of course maintenance, and Chapter 6 offers suggestions for dealing with problem birds. Chapter 7 presents detailed management information for species in particular need of conservation efforts, and Chapter 8 introduces other golf course residents. Supplemental material includes a glossary, a list of pertinent reference materials, helpful contacts for additional information, a list of plants of particular value to birds, guidelines for artificial nest structures, regional bird lists, and a list of more than 400 North American breeding birds with their habitat requirements and conservation status." Includes glossary, pp. 83-84. Includes references, pp. 85-86. Includes Appendix one : Sources of Additional Information, pp. 87-90; Includes Appendix

| # of Pages: | 8 |
| Publishing Information: | New York, NY: National Audubon Society |
| Keywords: | Golf course construction; Golf courses in the environment; Rates; Golf industry trends; Contamination; Safety; Conservation; Comparisons; Integrated Pest Management; Pesticides |
| Abstract: | Discusses the boom in golf course development in the United States, stating that golf courses are currently being built at the rate of more than one per day. Relates the fact that until recently, many found it hard to believe that a golf course could be a wildlife sanctuary, or environmentally sound. Discusses the history of chemical use on golf courses, and the developments over the years that have made the environment an important issue on golf courses. Describes the involvement of major environmental groups with the golf industry, and rates a few golf courses with regards to the amount of environmental concern they have. |

| Abstract: | Discusses land use and legislation concerning golf course construction in Oregon and South Carolina. Many conservation laws were passed in Oregon in the 1970's, severely limiting areas that are available for golf course construction. In South Carolina, the issue is wetlands. In order to start construction on a golf course, a permit from the Army Corps of Engineers is required. Developers say that this issue has become a political one, started by environmentalists. |

| Abstract: | Dicusses the need to practice water conservation in turf management by familiarizing readers with physiologic and agronomic principles, upon which such management is based. Relates such factors as transpiration/evapotranspiration and humidity with water loss and discusses irrigation for optimum water use efficiency. Concepts provide basis for a water management strategy that has the potential of reducing turf water use by up to fifty percent. |
