I realize this question is loaded with "it all depends", but if you could make a general guess as to how long it would take to dig this pond, it would be helpful.
Pond stats;
1/4 acre
mostly excavation, with a small 2-3' dam
"dam" length is roughly 125'
core trench
shape is kinda like a flattened heart
depth 8-10'
equipment--large track hoe and bull dozer.
spoil dirt to be deposited very close-30-50'
I am just looking for ball park figures here. Hopefully my test pits are going to be dug this afternoon and I will be sitting down to work out the details of the project. More hopeful is that the test pits show the project is a go.
Thanks,
Joe
