| Abstract/Contents: | Presents the results of a study, started in 2003, "1) to assess variability of chemical properties of recycled wastewater in the Front Range of Colorado; and 2) to evaluate landscape soils and plants that are...under recycled wastewater irrigation." Details methods and materials used in the study, stating that "recycled wastewater samples were collected from irrigation ponds and sprinkler outlets on landscape sites." Reports that "in all cases, the water samples met or exceeded the regulations in regard of E. coli count as defined in the state regulations, therefore the water is suitable for landscape irrigation." States that "generally, turfgrasses had a good appearance, showing salinity damage only on a few sites with poor drainage, heavy soil structure or shallow water table. However chronic decline of conifer trees were often observed under RWW [recycled wastewater] irrigation." Concludes that understanding the responses of urban landscape plants and soils to recycled wastewater irrigation and identifying proper management practices are critical to the long-term success of water reuse practice." |
