Abstract/Contents: | Reports on a subsurface irrigation installation project by Homestead Gardens in Davidsonville, Maryland. States that the project involved "two Anne Arundel County parks, nine playing fields- and nearly 500,000 ft. [feet] of subsurface dripperline tubing." Discusses the reason for the project, stating that "Homestead Gardens got involved with the irrigation project when Anne Arundel county leaders decided that subsurface irrigation would conserve water and eliminate the runoff of silt and other contaminants into neighboring Chesapeake Bay." Discusses the steps involved in the irrigation process and concludes that "increasing environmental concerns will create new market demands. But business owners...have proven those needs can be met efficiently and cost-effectively." |
