Planned dimensions are roughly 145x300. Surface area roughly 43000 sq ft. Right under an acre. Levee will be 36' at base, 12' at apex, height will be 12' roughly. That's what NRCS advised.

Overflow will be handled by a 12" through pipe with collars and riser with a spillway between 18"-24" above riser.

In terms which I have seen on other posts here, this would be classified as a hollow pond or as we say it "holler". Ill be digging my test holes tomorrow. I plan on digging 4 and doing a bucket test while Im there. I might also do a jar test to see what my clay percentage is as well.
