I have a site in east texas that may take several years before I'm able to complete it. I've posted lots of pics. I recently had 8 acres clean up where homesite will be and th top of the hill was very sandy in places. When we destumped stumps,there was select fill only in some areas. The operator then went down near the creek and did this dig test that is in photo. He said it was good gummy gray clay and thought it would make a great dam. Just curious what yalls thoughts are, and what the clay looks like from pics, and the overall thoughts on process and site loction?
Using daftlogc, the outlined area could be close to 7 or 8 acres. Lots of trees would need to come out. It should be pretty deep in some places as well. Fingers crossed that the clay is actually the good stuff!
The creek on the maps actually starts for a natural spring that begins on my property. A .3acre pond was built in 1957 and the spillway is flowing at all times. Just past the dam, there are multiple other springs just flowing out of the hillside.
