| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the Old Marsh golf course in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, which was built on an old cattle ranch. The course, which was designed by Pete Dye, includes a sump-pumping system that collects rainwater and returns it to collecting ponds, which then is used to irrigate the golf course. There are many birds, frogs, and turtles, as well as wetlands, which are protected by a moat. Because of the irrigation system that Dye uses, he cannot use some very common insecticides and pesticides. Instead he uses biological products. |
