Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Soil questions Burying Muck

I think I would get a 2" pump and get rid of the water first, then try to determine the depth of the muck where you need a "road". Use pallets to build a footpath. Perhaps you can push muck downhill if its only a couple feet thick by slowly working in from the edge.

I would not try to push soil over muck - you'll likely fall though it at some point. I've seen a dozer stuck in muck - it took two other dozers to pull it out.
