Jennifer Wemhoff and Jamie Oltman

The Groundwater Guardian (GG) Green Site program recognizes the groundwater and environmental stewardship of highly managed green spaces, such as golf courses, ball fields, parks and campuses by encouraging site managers to implement, measure and document their groundwater-friendly practices. The program publicly recognizes sites for their efforts on behalf of water resources and encourages their sustainable implementation, while providing an opportunity for superintendents and managers of highly managed green spaces to educate themselves, site staff and site visitors about the important resource of groundwater. Designation as a GG Green Site is based on the completion of an application and earning at least 70 percent of total applicable points based on current practices on pesticide and fertilizer use, water use, managing sources of pollution, protecting water quality and environmental stewardship.
