Hi Jim
I recently drained my pond and right before digging we had a huge rain dump 2inches partially filling it back up. I rented a 4 inch trash pump but our equipment was already there. The 4inch pump made quick work of the remaining water. I’ll tell you my bulldozer operator was very skillful. He pushed new dirt onto the muck, created big piles and slowly chipped away at it. It added a day or two to the dozer but we were able to renovate a wet pond solely with the dozer. It’s possible.
