Dam pipe vs. spillway - 06/26/06 05:22 PM
I am currently half through digging out a 1.5 acre pond above a 2.5 acre pond that I just drained to dig out. My local NRCS person has his opinions but I would like others as well. I have done alot of reading online as well as on pond boss and have now read enough to be confused and undecided. I called a local contractor today to look at my situation and give his opinion.
My questions are:
Do I want a drainpipe or just a spillway? Do I want a bottom drain or top drain with/without a standpipe. Do I want a siphon system? My NRCS guy frowned on a bottom drain.
Could someone tell me a little more about the PVC and is that the best option?
Thanks, Craig
