Actually many places yards and golf courses are the main culprit for fertilize, herbicide and insecticide contamination of lakes and streams. A few years ago I read about an incident where a local agency decided to crack down on such non point source pollution. They were certain the cause was poor farming practices. The agency paid an environmental firm a huge sum to help trace down the "culprits". To make a long story short, the main culprits turned out to be yards and golf courses. The funny thing is one of the practices that they recommended to be changed was that people caring for their "perfect" lawn didn't turn off their spreader or sprayer when they crossed their driveway. The firm said the vast majority of chemicals placed on driveways went into storm drains then directly to local waterways when it rained. Strangely when presented with the results the agency quietly dropped the whole thing lol. I believe had the problem been pinpointed to farmers they would have been punished as much as the law would allow.
