| Abstract/Contents: | "A survey of 150 golf course superintendents in central Florida was conducted in fall 1999 to determine the amount of reclaimed water use, level of satisfaction with reclaimed water, and benefits and problems with reclaimed water for irrigation. Eighty-five surveys were returned, with 46 of 85 (54%) superintendents using reclaimed water. A high percentage (91%) of those using reclaimed water were either satisfied or very satisfied with the water. The most frequently cited benefits were abundant supply, conservation of fresh water, and cost. A common concern was potential salinity or sodium in water and soil, even though the sampling area only included golf courses that use non-saline, reclaimed water. The most frequently observed problems associated with non-saline, reclaimed water included clogged irrigation heads, excessive rusting of equipment, and growth of algae on greens and holding ponds. Finally, 85% of the superintendents that were using reclaimed water would choose to continue its use." |
