Tuesday-Wednesday, November 6-7, 2018, 7:30am-3:30pm Irrigation audits are performed to collect data, verify systems are working as designed and identify opportunities to improve water-use efficiency. Participants in this course will be trained on the Irrigation Association/ASABE method for irrigation auditing, learning how to gather appropriate site and irrigation system information, identify irrigation components, perform irrigation audits, and calculate a simple schedule. You will also learn about evapotranspiration, plant water requirements, and soil characteristics to inform setting a designated day schedule and a soil moisture bucket schedule. This class is designed for landscape professionals and will include outdoor sessions performing irrigation audits in the field both days. This also helps prepare one, in conjunction with adequate self-study, for the Certified Irrigation Auditor exam. Support for this program is provided by the Saving Water Partnership.
