| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the practice of removing turf to reduce irrigation costs on golf courses. Provides recommendations for creating a turf removal plan, including renovation details, cost-efficient removal, and subsequent water savings. States that "a comprehensive turf removal plan should involve a collaborative effort between the golf course superintendent, golf course architect, irrigation designer, course officials, and board members." Mentions that "turf removal projects are not without their challenges. Initially, bermudagrass contamination [may become] a serious problem." |
