Biography:
Larry Musser, President of PRZ Consulting, has been involved in soil, water and wastewater chemistry for 38 years. In 1988 he began concentrating his efforts on soil analysis and accumulating a database of soil analysis. Since then, he has used the results from this database of over 18,000 analyses to develop a computer program that repairs badly damaged athletic fields. Today this program is being used for ongoing soil consulting on over 500 athletic fields at any one time in 15 states. This database has become instrumental in the assessment of and the corrective specification for parks and athletic fields on reclaimed water.

For the past 15 years Larry has been using this extensive database to recommend the design, construction and maintenance of new athletic fields for sustainability. The fields designed this way stand up to exceptional wear. Larry has 20 years of experience in teaching the techniques of proper turf maintenance via PRZ Seminar?EUR??,,????'???s Sports Turf Maintenance and Design for Sustainability Seminars. He has been teaching his findings by providing approximately 35-50 PRZ Athletic Field Maintenance Seminars per year.
