Well, have now spent 3 years living in the sticks and loving it. Finally got a Blue Beast big enough to handle the chores and life got even better. Now have decided that the small, spring fed livestock pond/seep (100'x100', 3-4' deep, small earthen dam failing/leaking whenI bought the place) is the next project and I'll hire someone to do it. My goal is to make it bigger & deeper. Spring is a good one as it did not dry up during drought in Indiana 2 summers ago. Can anyone tell me at what depth, height of dam, or impoundment size the Corps. of Engineers will have to be included? I'd like to have damn pushed back far enough to make pond about 1/3-1/2 acre in size, 20-25 deep at deepest. It sits in a bowl and dam can be laid between 2 hills encompassing it. Any thoughts?
Should done it first so I could fish while dreaming up more projects to tackle.
