K-State researchers use Colbert Hills process to study ecosystem of former landfill site...

plan to tour the site in the spring to "give a little more hands-on assistance" on how K-State used the process and how Western Michigan can adapt it for their own use.

"We want to keep the findings simplified for public information usage, but base it on proper science. If we can have a science-based evaluation system, then we will be able to follow environmental quality and identify parameters that aren't meeting expectations. People want to know how golf courses, landfills or any public land is affecting the environment."

Thien and his group have published that process in two golf industry publications -- Golf Course Management and the USGA Green Section Record. The Western Michigan project is the second site the team has provided their expertise. Previously the golf course at the Presidio military installation near San Francisco requested their assistance.
