W.C. Mo. | Sounds like where I was 4 years ago. Cleared a big ditch of trees and brush. Ended up with a 20 acre pond. Also ended up with several new acres of farm ground from filling ditches with topsoil from the main draw. My pond ended up having 23 ft of water at my pump station 1/4 mile from the dam. Like I said, it was a big...ditch.
BTW you need to refer to it as a farm pond. The corp will let farm ponds slide but they get all huffy if it is a lake. :-( experience. Apparently my pond is on the approach to KCI airport and somebody saw all the dirt work from the air. I got several calls from the corp and a nice visit after the pond was completed without their blessing. They were not interested that I was damming up an erosive ditch the was causing flooding downstream on my dime. Only interested in all the wildlife habitat I was destroying. About the only thing that grew good in that brush were ticks. I guess fish are not considered wildlife. | |
