    Nature-blended golf developments span a broad topographical range

    Bethpage Black, A Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary

    Courses like Bethpage Black, certified by Audubon International, improve environmental performance and community relations, reduce liability, save money and contribute to environmental conservation.

    For over 25 years, Audubon International has assisted golf courses in their efforts to blend environmentally responsible maintenance practices into day-to-day operations. The organization recognizes program members that demonstrate their commitment to environmental quality by meeting required standards for protecting the environment, conserving natural resources and providing wildlife habitats. Golf courses certified by Audubon International improve environmental performance and community relations, reduce liability, save money and contribute to environmental conservation.

    The cornerstones of the Audubon International certification program are:

    • Environmental planning
    • Wildlife and habitat management
    • Chemical use reduction and safety
    • Water conservation
    • Water quality management
    • Outreach and education

    In a larger context, Audubon International programs educate, assist and inspire people from all walks of life to protect and sustain the land, water, wildlife and natural resources around them. Recognized properties are public and private entities that complement preserved lands. They contribute to the conservation of resources and the protection of both common and rare plants and wildlife.

    Twenty golf courses designed, renovated or remodeled by Rees Jones, Inc. have been accepted into one of Audubon International's certified programs. These include:

    Water & Sustainability Innovation Award

    In February 2019, the South Course at Corica Park was awarded the first Water & Sustainability Innovation Award. This new award, given by Audubon International and Ewing Irrigation & Landscape Supply, recognizes landscape companies, organizations and municipalities for sustainable, water-efficient projects.
