Abstract/Contents: | Overviews five aspects of a maintenance program that can have the largest environmental impacts including nutrient management, pesticide usage, equipment fleet management, irrigation practices, and field paint. Highlights each potential environmental impact for maintenance programs. Mentions that "as maintenance programs continue to evolve to reduce carbon inputs, sports fields, and parks will be able to improve the overall quality of the environment and save money." Concludes by reassuring that all of these maintenance changes will pave the way for continued environmentally friendly practices by the young and future members of the parks. |
