The ones I have met are very friendly. All are way out of sight of my pond and my proposed house site. I don't think neighbors will be an issue at all. I was mainly concerned with running this stream water into my pond because it's basically just storm runoff. Any issues there? I was thinking about the potential for introducing nitrates/pollutants, etc. There are many farms in the area. If that would be an issue, I would just bury a pipe, fill it in and just let it run into the stream it has been running into. I just thought that having an extra source of water for the pond might be a nice thing especially in drought times. Thanks
