This past Thursday I was invited to participate as a speaker and panelist at the San Bernardino County Water Conference in Ontario. It was an opportunity to inform the community of our water conservation efforts on the golf course. By introducing perpetual, comprehensive auditing to our conservation planning, we have conserved a volume of water equal to a 25% reduction from previous seasons (2006 versus 2010). That equates to 60 acre foot of water per season. Multiple additional components contribute to our conservation efforts including: diligence in moisture monitoring, amended programming, hand watering versus overhead sprinkler operation, nozzle upgrades, and managing environmentally adapative species of turfgrass for our region.
