Central IL
Run water down trench to settle it. If you just build over a fresh trench, when it settles you will have a hole under the dam and it will wash right out. We don't use a pump we just stick a 2 inch hose down it and turn on the valve. A pump would probably be faster. You can stand there and watch it settle starting where you stick the hose in and then it just keeps going down hill. The key is getting it settled without a bunch of goo seeping out of the trench or it will squish out on you while driving above it.
