Abstract/Contents:Overviews the damage done to the greens due to, tees, and fairways at Contra Costa Country Club due to Urea 45. Explains that the greens, which originally measured approximately 125,000 sq. ft. [square feet], we now have to resod approximately 30,000 sq. ft., 3 greens will have to be rebuilt completely, even the young trees are gone." Adds that the originally measured 65,000 sq. ft. of tees has been reduced to 20,000 sq. ft. Discusses the fairways, which are recovering from the damage "after very heavy irrigation and aerating in an effort to leach the material out of the root zone of the existing turf."
