Wish I could take credit for thinking of this solution, but a contractor suggested it when a "pond builder" left me with a steep drop off at the dam and too little free-board. It still amazes me that folks that make a living, in part building ponds, have not understood some basic principles of pond building. I recently had a contractor respectfully suggest that using a sheep's-foot on the dam was unnecessary and compacting with the dozer was satisfactory. I will say that he said he would do what I wanted and I know he will. I also think he is a good operator and is willing to learn. We are getting swamped with rain on this pond project, and I hope we get a dry spell. Got another inch in the last couple hours.
