Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Building a dam Adding Muck/Sediment to the back side of a dam.

I was thinking of the same thing with my 30yr old pond. The leaves from the oaks and run-off have silted it in. Would like to get a trackhoe to clean it up and deposit the dirt on the backside of my new pond. If anything, will help to smooth the embankment for mowing.
