In the final stages of constructing a new 5 acre pond. We are debating about removing all the topsoil. We have plenty of clay to finish dam construction. The pond is filling quickly with abundant( 8-10) springs so far. The more topsoil we remove the more water we run into. Had to plug 2 springs so far while trying to finish dam. The pond will have natural banks on the sides due to great locations. Natural slopes tend to sway me to leave topsoil as the pond should drain daily with the amount of water that would be coming into the pond.Any help would be nice.
