| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the outdoor athletic facilities at the University of Notre Dame, which include 30 acres of varsity field as well as 30 acres of intramural fields and manager Dan Brazo. Discusses the University's consideration of replacing a practice field or two with synthetic surfaces. Profiles Brazo highlighting his education and career including his Ph.D in biology from Michigan State University. States that Notre Dame has master plans for fertilization and chemical applications for each field. Mentions that "the football practice fields are native soil with the original bluegrass, now mixed with Poa annua and perennial rye" while "the football game field is Notre Dame's only sand-based field." States that "all of the Notre Dame fields follow a standard pest management (IPM) program with established threshold levels for insect and disease infestations and constant monitoring." Discusses the potential impact of the spring season and summer camps on the management of the facilities. |
