Abstract/Contents:Briefly discusses efforts taken to preserve environmental quality during the construction of a golf course in Bloomfield, Connecticut. States that "the town engaged [Sam Fried's] services to do a wildlife census to monitor the environmental impact of the course." Discusses Fried's use of the "LaMotte 'Water Quality Educator Monitoring Outfit'" to do the water testing himself. Details the water testing and evaluation process. States that "evaluating the results has to be done with consideration of prior land uses ...Learning the history of [the] site can be very important in obtaining an accurate picture of the test results." Concludes that "the knowledge [that is gained from water testing] can make [the] course a better place to live for the plants, creatures, and people that make it their home."
