Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Selecting a site NRCS Worthless??

I spent some time at the county NRCS office this afternoon (perhaps better known locally as the Soil & Water office) getting assistance on some planning for my 2nd pond (2007 target construction date). The local pond construction expert (to whom I owe a great deal of thanks for help with my first pond) helped me figure out several things fast that would have taken much longer on my own - topo & soil map reading (now available on-line at the county's website, I didn't know that), watershed area & drain line size info, and the dreaded WETLANDS CHECK (all clear!). When you've got a helpful local office with an experienced expert to help, it's really nice.
