Hey guys!

Looking at purchases and my wife likes my dream purchase which includes a 1/10 acre spring fed pond with lots of watershed (at least 7 acres of the property its on).

The soil looks like solid georgia red clay. Typical for the area.
There are a few other private ponds in the area.

This pond also has a spring feeding it (I'd guess 2-3 galloons a minute) has a liner (that needs to be replaced). Anyone have a good idea why they'd want a liner when they have so much clay? Quirk of the previous owner (deceased, can't ask him), or do I need to do a bunch of soil tests to look for something sinister if I want to go sans liner?

I'll post some pictures later.

Also- how do yall feel about watershed comingin off the road? Is it a huge problem, not a problem, or something in between? it's a relatively busy road
