I had some involvement with a golf course on Martha's Vineyard, that was approved with a condition that ALL turf management, had to be "organic". No artificial chemicals allowed. When you arrived there to play, your golf shoes were "treated" to make sure you didn't bring disease and/or chemicals onto the turf.
The permitting condition has been modified through the years, as it wasn't practical as written. Some chemicals are safer than the "organic alternative" and some turf conditions just don't respond to a readily available, organic solution.
