This control system will have the ability to self regulate the water delivered from the water source based on the soil moisture readings. The site will have off site monitoring capabilities and will include flow sensing to track water usage. This system will qualify for variance based on the ¿494¿ rule and will meet all requirements and standards of the Florida Irrigation Society and the Irrigation Association BMP¿s. Phase Two of the project is to be completed February 2013: Convert the shrub area application to point source irrigation. Point source irrigation utilizing emitters that are applying plant water requirements at the root base only will reduce water requirements for this site by eliminating the application of water to areas of the beds that have no need for irrigation. The emitters required for each plant will be calculated based on plant water requirements, plant size, environment and soil type. Conversion of the spray heads application to multi-trajectory multi-stream rotary nozzles. This would allow for lower gallons required for each head and reduce application rate and thus allow for the addition of heads. Coverage issues would then be addressed to have a minimum of head to head coverage as suggested by all major manufactures¿ as well as the Florida Irrigation Society and the Irrigation Association BMP¿s. Describe your organizations efforts in developing, implementing and enforcing water conservation and flood protection ordinances. As the Water Conservation Manager for Raymow Enterprises, Inc. I have incorporated presentations to HOA's throughout the district to provide information on the need as well as the process required to help conserve water in landscape irrigation. I routinely complete irrigation audits and evaluations and provide recommendations for upgrades and improvements. Raymow Enterprises, Inc. provides services that include performing the upgrades and changing schedules on controllers as well as working with Home Owners and educating them on proper scheduling of their irrigation controllers.
