Update:
Well the "powers that be" from the drilling company came by yesterday afternoon. Their plans are to dredge the pond, while also expanding the pond to the east, something I'd already planned to do myself. They also want to slope the east side to capture more runoff from rains and possibly dig another well on the 10 acres where the pond exists. They are also considering building another pond on the west side, below the dam. The land slopes down towards the west, from the dam, and it was my intention to build another pond down there, anyway. Right now, it's all in the planning stage. There is a private gravel road that is maintained by my neighbor and I, that split our properties. They would maintain that road for us. They would restock the existing pond and stock the new pond with fish. This all sounds good to me. Maybe I get get them to kick in the alum and hydrated lime. LOL!
