| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA) facility in Chino, California, stating that "on-site recycled water and effecient drip irrigation proved to be an important part of the facility's design, allowing the IEUA to meet its water demands." Focuses on drip irrigation, suggesting that it "is practical for both commercial and residential landscapes. But for large beds and large turf areas, spray systems can trump drip or subsurface irrigation." Mentions potential installation costs of drip irrigation systems, explaining that "one large factor is the depth at which a drip system might be installed. A system that's simply covered with mulch will be less expensive than one that must be installed at greater depth." Concludes that "the fact that drip systems are generally more effecient than spray systems is undisputed...However, any system not maintained properly can waste lots of water." |
