Hi All!

Recently I was approached by a road construction company doing work in my area and they would like to dig a tank in exchange for the dirt they will remove from my property. Are there any specific questions that I need to be sure to ask? It is all happening so fast and I can't possibly think of all of the questions. I'm sure they do this all the time but what can I expect from them? Will they engineer it or just dig a hole and build a small dam? So many questions and so little time.

They only need about 5000 yards of dirt so by my estimation it will be a pretty small tank...maybe 90x90x15 deep or about 3/16 of an acre. Short term it would be used to water a few cattle but eventually would like to expand it and turn it into at least a half acre tank.

If anyone has any advice or past experience with this please drop me a line.

Thx.,
