The bill creates a certification program for golf course best management practices, administered by the turfgrass science program at the University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences in coordination with the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.

Certified participants must complete training and testing, and recertification requires 8 hours of continuing education, with at least 2 hours on fertilizer best management practices.
