Ewest,
Thanks for the links. For some reason, I can't get the link to siphon pipe sizing to work. Anyway, I'll contact the NRCS office and see what they say.
Does anyone have any pictures of the siphon system that Pond Dam Piping uses? Has anyone used this company for their systems? I tried emailing them last week but haven't heard from them. I figure I have about one more week until it's needed.

I have some pictures of the project so far. The first is about two weeks ago when they started on the dam.

This is looking at the two giant oak trees in the bottom and the small pond. I hate to see big trees like this go, but I have to build a pond.


It's amazing to see the DC8 knock over these trees with ease.


I'll post some more later.

I started with nothing, and still have most of it.
