Biography

Biography

Dave Pagano, a nationally recognized expert in irrigation design and a leader in providing comprehensive water management services.  Mr. Pagano has over 50 years’ experience in this field and was an appointee to the Orange County Water Conservation Task Force, an advisory group directed by the Board of Supervisors to develop water conservation policy/ordinance for the County of Orange.  Dave was also a part of the committee reviewing the latest State of California “Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance” Assembly Bill 1881 for the County of Orange and the Orange County League of Cities.  Under his leadership, the firm has provided comprehensive water management and irrigation system master plans for Disney theme parks all over the world, as well as for the PGA West 5,000 unit, 1,400 acre golf community, the 5,000 acre Rancho Santa Margarita community, Shady Canyon (2000 acres) residential project in Irvine, California as well as several hotel and resort projects.

Irrigation designs prepared under Dave’s leadership include irrigation practices that are necessary to sustain the landscapes while ensuring that the irrigation and drainage do not degrade the quality of the surrounding land, water, wildlife habitat and other natural resources.  Dave’s design philosophy ensures that proper irrigation system design will set the standard needed to apply irrigation water efficiency while enabling irrigation water managers to minimize water losses during delivery and its application to landscape.  Irrigation designs prepared by Dave and his staff ensure sustainability by using the latest irrigation technologies available. Some of these technologies are the basis for the creation of Irrigation schedules that consider soil moisture and the plant’s water needs to ensure that only the amount of water required by the plant material is applied to the landscape. Mr. Pagano believes that good irrigation design and irrigation managements practices will help sustain the downstream environment by minimizing its damage and the protection of downstream waterways.

In 1994 Dave Pagano was elevated by ASIC to the status of Fellow.
