Good thing they have the high air intakes. Diesels do not compresss water, very well??

Good luck when the DNR finds out you are altering a water, ruining fish spawning grounds and pitting gravel without a permit and not paying taxes.

I remember a time not that long ago when DNR came out to our small bridge construction job site and saw dozer tracks going down the bank to the water edge, and then on the other side back up the bank. Although the contractor did not get caught red handed, he did get fined and most importantly the job site shut down until he could convince them he would be a good boy from then on.:confused2:

Roy your right I will contact my dealer.
Sound's like I may have more trouble with the DNR than the tractor.
Think I might just buy some stone.
Don't want to kill any snail darter's !!!! Ha, Ha, Ha, :laughing:

That's no joke. The fines from the DNR for disturbing a waterway can be quite steep. Buying crushed stone would be the best and safest option.

Yup they don't play nice and all it takes is a neighbor or someone walking by to call. Someone around here cut some trees within the buffer zone of a lake and they had some crazy rate they charged him per inch of stumpage cut, it ended up being 10's of thousands! I'm way more careful around my waterfront areas now after hearing that!

If you are just pulling a little gravel out of a smaller creek once in a while, I wouldn't worry about it, but thats not the lawyer side in me talking. The lawyer side of me would say ask first.

We had a farmer neighbor just come in and fill in a little swampy area and dig another ditch. To increase his crop area..He is still paying the lawyers and FINES?
