Abstract:

(Project results affected by departues of two faculty members who originally received funding)

The original proposal outlined a plan to survey gold course in Wisconsin regarding their water use, identify opportunities for improving water use efficiency from the survey data, and then conduct detailed water use analysis of four golf courses. From that information, we planned to develop an educational plan to facilitate the adoption of water saving practices using fact sheet and workshops. However, due to the limits on remaining PI, Soldat the project results summarize what was able to be accomplished.
