Well guys, the rough-in dig is complete on the little expansion of little Mutt Pond. One new bay is shown in the picture, the other is behind the point you can see in the middle of the picture. The pond is about 2 feet below low summer pool in the photo do to the dig. It has come up 6 inches or so since the photo was taken.

I'm going to have to figure out another way to put in a forage pond. The test hole for a combination sediment forage pond was beach sand down to 12 feet and would have had to be so far upgrade, 12 feet was above water table. Really don't want to deal with a liner in what could be at times a very high flow sediment pond.

The two swales coming into the pond will now both be filled with mats then riprap. The north shore of the pond (partly shown in picture), will have mat and riprap for erosion as well.
