From the Antelope Valley Press:
Los Angeles County Waterworks District 40 wants Antelope Valley residents and business owners alike to conserve water, so county officials launched a rebate program for people who purchase and install water-saving devices.
The rebate program is a collaboration between Waterworks District 40 and Lowe’s Home Improvement meant to encourage people to reduce their water use.
Kiss the Bride film Rebates are $4 each for rotating sprinkler nozzles, 30 cents per square foot for synthetic turf and $50 to $150 for water-saving devices such as “smart” weather-based sprinkler controllers, high-efficiency clothes washers, high-efficiency toilets, and waterless urinals for businesses.
“We’re trying to provide incentives,” said Melinda Barrett, Waterworks Districts water conservation program manager. “We’re hoping (to do this) by making it easier to find the products and get a rebate.”

Filed under: guilford high school, toxins, synthetic turf
By Pam Johnson, Courier Senior Staff Writer:
Anyone with concerns of environmental toxins leaching from Guilford High School’s synthetic turf may now have their fears allayed, as independent testing has validated the environmental safety of Kavanaugh Field.
The Cheshire firm of Milone & MacBroom ran extensive tests for water and air quality and measured for excessive heat at the field, said Guilford Parks and Recreation Director Rick Maynard. The firm asked to do the tests at a time when some concerns were being fielded about toxins leaching from synthetic materials, particularly from impact-absorbing granules known “crumb rubber.”
“If there were concerns, we’d all want to know about it. We’re thankful for [the study’s] result—it’s certainly not a bad thing for people to know for sure, and this is a good thing,” said Maynard.
Maynard pointed out the town’s field, manufactured by FieldTurf Tarkett Co., was selected due to the company’s excellent reputation and environmental safety record.
“We felt they were the best in the market and that’s why we went with them,” said Maynard.
Guilford was contacted last year by Milone & MacBroom, a civil engineering, landscape architecture, and environmental science surveying firm. The firm sought to answer questions asked by various town commissions, said its environmental scientist, Scott Bristol.
“We design parks and playing fields. The bulk of our playing field experience is with natural turf. Since we also do design synthetic turf fields for schools and towns, we’re often in front of planning and zoning and inland wetlands agencies for approval. They start asking questions, as they should, and when it got around to some of the fields—in particular, synthetic turf fields—they were asking questions we didn’t have answers to. We set out to collect some information.”
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World dvd Guilford and two other Connecticut towns (not in this area) were asked to participate, said Bristol. The Guilford testing ran through August 2008. Milone & MacBroom based its results against laboratory tests from a 2007 Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station study.
“In general the state’s study is very similar to the work that we did,” said Bristol, noting the exception that Milone & MacBroom conducted testing in the field.
Among its tests, the state lab determined a toxin, benzothiazole, could be released from rubber when heated.
“If that happens in a lab, then it happens in the field, assuming their data was accurate,” said Bristol.
But concentrations found under lab conditions proved far different from a “real world situation,” he said.
“They took a few grains of rubber, put it in a vial and measured what was concentrated in the air above. When a container is sealed and heated, it represents the worst-case scenario,” Bristol said, adding “No one plays in a test tube.”
The lab test concluded there would be a “relatively high” concentration of benzothiazole in air above the fields on hot days. But tests done by Milone & MacBroom on hot July and August days proved otherwise.
“On the field, with wind, temperature, moisture, and other variables; we found differently. The [state lab] found benzothiazole at a relatively high concentration, [approximately] 225 micrograms per cubic meter. In Guilford, there were extremely low levels in air taken above the field—approximately .39 micrograms per cubic meter,” said Bristol.
Bristol noted that the Department of Public Health hasn’t established a formal threshold for benzothiazole exposure, though informally it’s developed one, “many, many times higher” than the Guilford results.
Another toxin released into the air by heated rubber, tertoctyl phenol, was “not detected at all,” at the field, said Bristol. He said the findings were consistent with the state lab test, which found tertoctyl concentrations “something like 100 times less than benzothiazole. We found little to none—in fact, none.”
The firm tested an air column rising to four feet above the playing surfaces and also air upwind and downwind.
“We set up five sample locations, four around the field plus one directly on the field, in the event a breeze was carrying anything off the field or if a breeze was carrying anything onto the field,” said Bristol.
The firm also came out in the rain to test water run-off from the field, spreading tests out at fields “over the course of about one year,” said Bristol.
In Guilford, “we collected water from drainage pipes leading from the field prior to mixing with any other source of water,” said Bristol. “We knew what the pipes were constructed of [PVC], to eliminate any metal contamination from pipes. Basically, we collected water and compared to standards set by the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).”
Elvira, Mistress of the Dark move
The study tested for zinc and lead levels and how the run-off water affected a test species. According to Milone & MacBroom’s report, “results of the study indicate that the actual storm water drainage from the fields allows for the complete survival of the test species known as Daphnia pulex. An analysis of the concentration of metals in actual drainage water indicates metals do not leach in amounts that would be considered a risk to aquatic life, as compared to existing water quality standards.”
The report also noted laboratory-based tests for metal, using EPA methods, indicated “metals will leach from crumb rubber; but in concentrations that are within ranges that could be expected to leach from native soil.”
When asked why tests didn’t include risks from accidental ingestion of crumb rubber (sprays of which sometimes kick up during play), Bristol said an incredibly large amount of crumb rubber would need to be ingested to create a health issue.
“I don’t think anyone considers it an issue. The thresholds for what’s called direct exposure that are set up by the state assume daily exposure for 30 years.”
The final test conducted in Guilford gauged the level of heat the field could reach.
“We’d heard from a variety of sources the rubber on these fields reaches as much as 160 degrees,” said Bristol, adding the field certainly heated up, but, “we were surprised to find how cool the rubber could stay. The reason is that, when you look at the field, you don’t see black rubber, you see green. The rubber’s down about an inch or so. There’s is a lot of shading effect that happens.”
Like aluminum foil instantly cooling after it’s pulled from a hot oven, the synthetic grass blades dissipate heat quickly, said Bristol, because of a lack of mass to store heat.
Just as with other outdoor synthetic playing surfaces (such as tennis or basketball courts), the synthetic field will heat up. The highest testing temperature found crumb rubber reaching 112 degrees on a 100-degree day at another Connecticut field, Bristol noted, adding, “any chemical reaction tends to increase with increasing heat.”
Maynard said the field is not used on exceedingly hot days.
“It definitely does get hot. It also answered the question about can kids get burned—the grass doesn’t hold the heat very long, so they won’t get burned on it. But the bottom line is we don’t schedule things there in July at noon,” said Maynard.
Maynard hopes this testing will help put to rest any questions about the safety of Guilford’s synthetic field. Maynard said there soon may be more test results for residents. This week, representatives from the Connecticut DEP are visiting Kavanaugh Field to determine if it will be included in round of DEP tests.
“The DEP now [has] funding to study synthetic fields, and they want to do 10 fields all over the state. They requested permission to do ours. They’re coming to look at and if they want to test it again, we’d welcome it,” said Maynard.
As for the safety of synthetic fields such as Guilford’s, Bristol said, “we’re not necessarily recommending everyone install a synthetic turf field…we’re telling people that if you’re worried about a synthetic turf field, don’t let the environmental issues influence your decision-making process, because there doesn’t appear to be any issues. Make your decision on your usage and what you want for your teams.”

Drought-tolerant gardens replacing lush yards

Shao Lin san shi liu fang film
Virtually all the bungalows in Jennie and Chas Rightmyer’s Kensington neighborhood have well-tended lawns out front – part of the American dream, along with picket fences and two-car garages.
But increasingly dire warnings about statewide water shortages prompted the Rightmyers to remove their Bermuda grass. They are replacing it with a drought-tolerant garden that should be completed by month’s end.
The couple hope the new landscaping will cut their overall water use by more than 20 percent.
“It just feels like the time has come,” Jennie Rightmyer said.
Californians should end their love affair with lawns, said water officials, lawmakers, conservationists and landscapers. Many of these advocates have promoted native plants for years, but they now sense a greater potential for change because of the public’s growing concerns about global warming, drought and ever-rising water bills.
“It’s the beginning of the end of lawn at home,” said Nan Sterman, who teaches a class called “Bye Bye Grass” at the Water Conservation Garden in El Cajon.
Last week, the garden’s managers started a hotline for people to seek advice from Sterman about “water-smart” landscaping.
“It’s not just the early adopters anymore,” Sterman said. “It’s (average) people who are really getting the sense that we have to do something . . . which tells me that it’s becoming part of the mainstream.”
Still, a large-scale shift away from lawns probably will take years and cost hundreds of millions of dollars in California.
Government agencies would need to offer more – and perhaps bigger – rebates so residents can afford to redesign their yards. Some cities and many homeowners associations would have to permit fake turf or desert-friendly plants. And it may be a while before the public is convinced that native shrubs and ground covers can look as good as grass.
There is no official statewide count of lawns, making it difficult to measure change. By one estimate, residential lawns cover about 300,000 acres in California and suck up about 1.5 million acre-feet of water per year – equal to the amount used by 3 million typical homes.
The Metropolitan Water District, the main wholesaler to Southern California, is leading an effort to trim those numbers. It is crafting a $7 million program to pay customers to tear out their lawns starting later this year.
download Soldiers Girl movie Residents and businesses could receive $1 per square foot to switch to preapproved, drought-resistant landscaping. The strategy could save enough water to supply 7,900 families a year.
San Diego County water agencies offer customers 50 cents or more per square foot to install synthetic turf, but water officials expect the recession will limit how many people opt to redo their landscaping.
It costs from about $2 per square foot to replace grass with drought-tolerant plants to more than $10 for synthetic turf.
State Assemblyman Ted Lieu, D-Torrance, recently introduced Assembly Bill 1061, which would enable residents to replace grass with water-sipping plants regardless of their homeowners association’s rules.
“Having lush green lawns is inconsistent with the water crisis we’re having,” Lieu said.
Metropolitan, a political heavyweight, backs Lieu’s legislation because low-water landscaping could reduce homeowners associations’ water use by 30 percent.
“It’s not taking away all of the discretion (from associations), but it does allow the homeowner some choices,” said Stephen Arakawa, a Metropolitan official.
Amazing Journey: The Story of The Who movie
Keith Lewinger, general manager of the Fallbrook Public Utility District and a Metropolitan director, said he understands that association boards “need to keep up appearances.” But he would like residents to have more flexibility.
Lewinger was drawn to the issue by a homeowner whose association denied his request to install synthetic turf.
“It’s not the Astroturf of the 1960s,” Lewinger said. “It looks like real grass.”
California residents will have an additional reason to trim water use in coming months: Many agencies are preparing higher rates, stiffer penalties and new restrictions to force conservation.

Despite the efforts to replace lawns, they won’t disappear soon. Conservationists said turf has its place in community parks and ballfields.
Lawns retain a special appeal for parents, said Floyd Wirthlin Jr., co-owner of the Am-Sod Inc. grass farm in Escondido.
Wirthlin recently showcased new water-saving sod varieties at a garden show in Del Mar. He feared the worst, based on his experience during the state’s last major drought in the early 1990s.
“It was like we were criminals,” he said.
But consumer interest in his sod ran high at the Del Mar event.
“People actually want their grass, but they . . . want to cut their water use,” Wirthlin said.
For people who can’t afford to replace their grass or don’t want to, lawn experts suggest watering fewer times each week but more deeply each time to develop stronger roots. They also said homeowners could reduce irrigation periods by a minute each week until the grass shows signs of stress.
While fixing irrigation leaks and adjusting watering times can be simple, persuading a lawn-centric society to embrace low-water landscaping is complex.
“The whole chain has to be there,” said Ellen Hanak, a water analyst for the Public Policy Institute of California, a nonprofit research group in San Francisco. “You have to have the plants available at the garden supply store. You have to have the irrigation equipment. Your landscaping professionals have to know what works in different climates and your household has to want it.”
The lawn’s popularity in America dates to when Europeans colonized the New World and brought their love of manicured grass. Turf thrived in the East and Midwest, where rain and snow generally provide plenty of water.
“When people moved out to California, they brought the ethic with them,” said Julie Saare-Edmonds, a landscape expert for the state Department of Water Resources. “We just don’t seem to be able to keep up with it anymore.”
That’s partly because California’s population has grown, and more residents have moved inland. Yards in those areas require two or three times as much water as those in the cooler coastal zones, according to the policy institute.
Las Vegas and Phoenix are the models for giving up lawns.
Since 1999, the Southern Nevada Water Authority has encouraged residents to pull up their grass in exchange for cash – currently $1.50 per square foot. The agency has invested $139 million in turf conversion, saving 7.2 billion gallons of water a year.
For new residential developments, the authority bans grass in the front yard and allows it for no more than half of a backyard. New commercial developments cannot have grass.
“You can make the change today on our nickel, or you can wait and do it on your dime,” said Pat Mulroy, the authority’s general manager.
In Kensington, the Rightmyers plan to avoid the stereotypical Las Vegas landscape. Neighbor Tom Adam, a project manager for an architecture firm, helped the couple select vibrant low-water plants.
“It doesn’t have to be a cactus,” Adam said.
He is now considering the future of his own lawn.
“We just can’t keep going at the same rate of water use,” Adam said.

GRASS FACTS
Lawns cover about 40 million acres nationwide.
On average, it takes about 45 gallons a year to water a square foot of grass in San Diego County.
Outdoor water demand for inland homes is two or three times greater than for homes on the coast.

Nevada
Back in 2002, the State of Nevada started rebates to the public and private section if they removed natural grass surfaces (lawns, fields, etc) that required watering IF they replaced these areas with landscape elements that were attractive and effective and required NO water. By creating an incentive of $1 per SF to get rid of their residents water wasting lawns, common areas and sports fields, Nevada has enjoyed a rebounding success in water conservation; saving water, decreasing the use of a high percentage of harmful lawn care products, decreasing the use of mowers and other power tools helps to clean the air and overtime, other positive effects, we hope, as well.
