I have a question. My husband and I live on 25 acres and there is a big area (maybe 6 acres) that used to be a natural gravel pit. It was dug for the natural gravel I am told. It is naturally dammed up on 3 sidesfrom the excavation, the other side is flat with the rest of the field. My question is would we be able to have a pond here? Will it hold water if its its supposedly mostly gravel?

great teaching again as usual. How deep do you normally make the core trench either below the original ground level, or below the Deepest water level? I'm still struggling with water seeping beneath the core trench. ( I am not a professional Operator, just do this stuff on our own property) thanks!

You don't need an overspill on this one its to small , only thing is the large area dams that are shallow you tend to get lots of evaporation and lose water compared to them being deeper, but may not be such a problem in a cold climate like yours.

he mentioned that the right side is lower so it can flow out around around the dam on natural soil if the water ever gets to high.

Hey Chris. I’m having the NRCS build a pond for me. Do you have any experience in dealing with them? If so, what are your thoughts on it

NRCS will design it, you will need a contractor to build it ( or maybe the local water control district if there is one)
@brandonbrown1984

Al S correct. I’m already past that point. Pond water level is marked. Levee is designed and measured. Money is allocated. And contractor is hired. Just waiting on dry weather so he can start. I was more curious as to his opinion on the way NRCS requires certain specs on the Pond. I know the contractor I hired charges nearly double to build an NRCS spec Pond vs non NRCS

I run an excavating company up here in Michigan. We can’t build ponds the way they are done down there. We don’t have that kind of clay in most spots. We actually have to dig down to water table and actually dig out ponds with our long reach excavator. My guess is around $5000ish
