| Abstract/Contents: | Describes the closing of "at least 11 golf courses within two hours' drive of [Denver, Colorado], including private and high-end public facilities" due to a severe drought. Discusses the money lost by the course closings, the use of effluent water, and the heavy restrictions of water use by the city. States that "area courses that remain open are dealing with the situation by raising mowing heights, restricting cart use, extending starting-time intervals and following strict water management." |
