Abstract/Contents:Discusses water conservation efforts at Gungahlin Lakes Golf Course near Canberra, Australia. States that "the lakes [on the course] have been sensitively designed with flowing shapes that blend with the rolling landform created by the course shaping. Eroded creeklines were redirected where necessary for better golf strategy and functional use of the land. The limited natural habitats of native grasses and rock outcrops were retained on the site." Explains that "apart from applying necessary irrigation, the lakes undoubtedly provide a key element to the visual and strategic appeal of the course."
