Has the drain tile caused the watershed of your pond to increase? ie water that was previously flowing into some other valley now flows into your drainage area?
Are there terraces in the field? Does the drain tile have risers (water inlets) out in the field in the terrace pans? Most drain tile outlets I have seen have relatively clear water coming out since the water is filtered though several feet of soil before entering the pipe.
sounds like you definitely need to visit with the neighbor.
getting court records hopefully tommorw.
hopefully neighbor/installer submitted required drain tile map to county to show location of drain tile. if not that is some sort of misdemeanor / felony or something (do not remember exact wording for not submitting map)
the neighbors land near my property is mostly flat. surface run off was not a lot but still enough. with drain tile, most likely a much larger area now drains onto my property.
the other side of neighbors property most likely takes care of half of neighbors field, while i am receiving at min most like 1/4 to 1/2 the water now.from there fields now.
because of last nightmare farmer that owned property, i am positive there was no drainage tile ever installed on neighbors property.
=========
drain tile freshly installed, so all the silt from digging trench, installing drain tile, settling of dirt in trench, is all coming out. making a large mess of things.
extra water coming onto property is also causing erosion issues on my property adding to additional load of silt into lake.
there is no way to predict if silt will settle down over the next couple years coming out of drain tile.
while portion of it is silt, it is also all the other water parameters that are also causing algae bloom explosion in the lake.
