A major milestone was recently completed, which is the tying in of the new irrigation system to the pump station. For the fi rst time the irrigation system was pressurized, allowing us to abandon most of the previous irrigation system. We have received numerous observations from outside vendors on Brian Duthu Chris Linam how clean our irrigation project has been and how well the grass has come back.
