| Abstract/Contents: | "Grey water, which is reclaimed or directly discharged wastewater effluent, is used throughout the United States as an irrigation and nutrient source for pasture crops. In many municipalities reclaimed water application is required in golf course management, and plans for the safe storage and delivery of reclaimed water to golf course turf are mandatory. This study seeks to quantify the amount of reclaimed water currently applied to Alabama golf courses. The study covers two areas: 1) a survey of golf course superintendents to determine reclaimed water use, and to evaluate why they do or do not use reclaimed water, and, 2) an environmental survey with three cooperating golf course superintendents, including soil and water sampling to evaluate nutrient loading from areas to which reclaimed water has been applied. The goal of the study is to provide preliminary data for future research on the environmental impact of reclaimed water reuse." |
