}At the City of Portland, Oregon, golf courses are in the
administrative  portfolio of our Parks and Recreation office.  Kathy
Murrin with Parks  and Rec has done outstanding things with integrated
pest management, and  encouraging environmentally preferrable
practices within our Parks  office.  You can reach Kathy at:

Apologies if this has already been suggested, but Florida DEP has just
such a BMP.  It's located at:

 "http://www.dep.state.fl.us/water/bdwgwr/aswwm/agsrc/golfbmp.htm".

It was written by the Ag section (their BMP page:
"http://www.dep.state.fl.us/water/bdwgwr/aswwm/agsrc/agsrc.htm"). 

They also have a good  one on chem mixing and loading at:
"http://www.dep.state.fl.us/water/bdwgwr/aswwm/agsrc/mxldbmp.htm".
