Brettski, if you have a turn around at the pond for tankers to use, we would not lay a line back to the road. The key is a good turn around. As for the water, a tanker shuttle operation would not hurt your pond. The pond that I said we drained, was about 1 acre 8 feet deep. We drafted at the dry hydrant and pumped to a ladder truck pumping about 1000gpm. Large fire, direct hose lay, not tankers. Good luck, hope you never need a fireman.
