Sorry to see this. I have plans to try a repair on the overflow pipe on my dam, but the good news is we’ve had enough rain, my pond is staying full. My brother in law has a place in eastern KS with a leaky pond. He brought in a number of dump trucks of bentonite, and he’s still got the leak. So frustrating. Hopefully you’ll get it solved.
Thinking about waiting on a drought then redoing the pond. If I have to cut the dam anyway, I will make the pond much larger since the runoff appears to be way more than the NRCS initially led us to believe.
