Abstract/Contents: | "Golf course putting green construction methods rely on homogenous mixtures of coarse and medium-sized sands as root zone media, yet limited availability of mineral sands has increased interest in use of more ubiquitous medium- and coarse-textured components. Coal combustion products (CCP) are currently being used as substitutes and/or amendments of soil in golf course construction, including root zones of putting greens. However, the common practice of clipping disposal by surface land-application raises concern for potential trace element contamination of soil and/or water resources. Three greenhouse studies evaluated the elemental composition of creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris Huds. cv. Crenshaw) leaf clippings collected over a 6-, 12-, or 18-month period following establishment of putting greens constructed using CCP, sand-sized bottom ash (BA) and/or fly ash (FA), as substitutes for mineral sand. Results showed levels of As, Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, Se, and Zn in putting green clippings fell well below pollutant concentration regulatory limits, permitting such clippings to be safely land-applied without requiring maintenance of cumulative pollutant loading rate (CPLR) records onsite." |
