The Stanford Golf Course, Driving Range, and Siebel Varsity Golf Training Complex use non-potable, non-drinking water for irrigation of turf and landscape. The water comes from creeks flowing onto the campus lands, as well as ground water from wells.
In the face of the drought, we've been asked to conserve water wherever possible. At this point we've cut perimeter irrigation in many non-essential areas. So far we've been able to completely turn off 36 large (120' diameter) sprinklers on the Driving Range and Holes #1 - #5. We've also converted six sprinklers from full-circles to part-circles, cutting their water use in half.
With these reductions, we will net a savings of 58,320 gallons per week and a projected savings of 933,120 gallons (2.78 acre/ft.) over the June-Sept. irrigation season.
We are continuing to look for other areas where we can reduce consumption, and will implement them throughout the summer.
Thanks for all your water conservation efforts Ken!

ReplyDeleteHandler was inspired to invent a Barbie doll. After she noticed that her daughter Barbara liked to play with paper dolls. and likes to let those dolls do things like adults do Ruth started the idea of creating a girl doll that had the shape of an adult. But UFA1S at first, the people around her did not agree.
