| Abstract/Contents: | Considers the issues and advantages of retrofitting a golf course for recycled water irrigation. With water becoming a precious commodity, interest in recycled water irrigation continues to increase as more and better-quality recycled water becomes available. Using recycled water to irrigate golf courses originally designed for freshwater irrigation causes unique challenges to arise, including conversion costs, cross connection, the construction and maintenance of water storage facilities, quick couplers, irrigation water filtration, and adjacent properties. Agronomic issues include recycled water dissolved salts, consultant fees, odor problems, liability issues, and equipment deterioration. Suggests that most recycled waters contain enough nutrients to completely eliminate fertilization of roughs and fairways and to reduce the fertilizer required by greens and tees. |
