How much watershed do i need in east TX? - 10/26/22 10:42 PM
I’m hoping to build a pond on land just south of Athens TX. The site has 48 acres of runoff watershed (no springs). There is an existing 0.5 acre pond immediately upstream of where I’d like to build a 2 acre pond. However, I have concerns that level in a new 2 acre pond would be down by a few feet most of the time, even with some supplementation from a well.
Do you have any recommendations for individuals/firms who could perform a feasibility study? The NRCS has not been much help. I tried a local civil firm and Freese & Nichols, but the job is too small for them. I have soil data and precipitation/evaporation data back to the 1950s.
