Hello All,
Looking for some advice as my pond dig is currently undergo. I am having a 1 acre pond dug out below my house, 15 foot deep in the middle. I am running into ground water at about 4-5 foot under ground. This is not a surprise as there is a small (4 foot) wide stream that is 30 yards away that trickles water through the year. I am trying to contemplate my lining / sealing options for maintaining a 10 foot plus pond depth. I am most likely going to put in a well, I have an old barn that I would like to have water to so its a win/win to install one with the pond.
Does anyone have experience with putting a pond in with loom soil and the above conditions? Appreciate any feedback/help I get. I have a clay contact that lives close and will allow me to use all I want. Only concern is with the high water table is that it will wash it away / make it not work. Also with a liner, I have read about all the troubles with them "Ballooning" in high water tables.
Thanks,
Luke
