Instructor: Keith Schweiger Knowing how much rainfall was received over an irrigated lawn can be a critical component to increasing the efficiency and conservation of irrigation water. Determining what rainfall data is reliable and relevant for a specific site has always hampered its effective use in managing the irrigation system. Whether the rainfall data comes from the internet, weather stations, or tipping rain bucket devices, the water manager must know it is accurate to apply it to an entire site. This course discusses real examples and shares some practical experience of using rainfall data to help the stakeholders of a property choose the solution that best fits the site’s management requirements.

This panel discussion will explore why HDPE is being used more frequently in landscape irrigation, methods for installing and joining HDPE and some of the “latest and greatest” to hit the market. Panel will be moderated by Chris Pine (IrriTech Training) and will include an irrigation specifier involved in the design of HDPE piping systems, a manufacturer of HDPE materials and a contractor that regularly installs HDPE piping.

Instructor: Dennis McKernan Learners will develop a clear understanding of how infiltration rates affect water application rates and irrigation scheduling. How to accurately measure soil infiltration rates will be explained as well as factors that affect soil infiltration rates. This course will cover:

• Defining and measuring the infiltration rates of a variety of soils and situations.
• How water application rates, through irrigation scheduling, are affected by soil intake rates.
• Factors that can increase and / or decrease a soil’s infiltration rate.
• How to match irrigation schedules to real life soil infiltration rates.

Who should attend?  Irrigation managers and maintenance staff with experience in developing irrigation schedules.
