Kemmer, Harleigh. 1976. Managing outdoor lighting. Grounds Maintenance 11(9): 14, 16, 20.

Outdoor lighting extends the time available for play and other activities normally limited to daylight hours. Night lighting also provides security, safety, and creates interesting night scenes by accenting plants, walls, signs, pieces of sculpture, and other noteworthy features in the landscape. Design of lighting systems is generally done by electrical engineers. Installation and repair of the electrical components is handled by electricians and electrical contractors. The grounds manager becomes involved with the following activities: 1. Maintaining poles and other hardware. 2. Keeping tree and shrub branches from obstructing lights. 3. Protecting root systems of desirable trees and shrubs when wires are installed underground. 4. Checking for damage to plants. (Light affects the growth of some plants.) 5. Pruning or removing plants when security becomes a problem.
