Abstract/Contents: | States that "golf cannot afford to assume that water availability will continue unimpeded." Suggests that golf course superintendents need to "look for better turfgrasses that require less water," and "look at our distribution systems in terms of efficiency and proper use." Recommends that "the time to put a plan into place is when water is plentiful, not when there is a shortage." Discusses the importance of communication with members, employers, and local officials. States that "the wise use and protection of precious water is a challenge for all of us today. It's a responsibility to ourselves and to future generations." |
