BENEFITS TO COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES

• Decrease landscape water use by building healthier soils and root systems
• Reduce toxic granular fertilizer runoff into storm drains that lead to the ocean
• Maintain compliance with the San Diego Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
• Reduce amounts of fertilizers needed to maintain a healthy lush landscape
• Create a sustainable landscape model that can be used to attract environmentally-conscious tenants or buyers

LEED: Although the new LEED Water Efficiency guidelines do not address landscape practices in a meaningful way, there is a plan championed by the Sustainable Sites Initiative to develop guidelines for “green” landscapes just like there are LEED standards for “green” buildings.  LEED has committed that these new standards will become part of the LEED rating system in 2011. Even though the standards are not yet developed, we are confident that fertigation will become a “Best Practice” based on fertilizer and water reduction.
