Turn dry creek beds into ponds? - 03/22/11 03:35 PM
I've been told before that on a dry creek bed that there is water somewhere underneath that creek bed relatively close to the surface and that you can put a dam down into the ground which will then push this water up to the surface resulting in a pond. Is this true? Can a dam be dug into the ground that far? Say if the water below the surface is 15 feet down there - can a dam be built that goes 15 feet down into the ground which will then cause that water to come up?
