Hello,

My pond has had low water levels due to a rotted out vertical standpipe (now fixed).

The levels have been low for years and as a result there is a lot of brush that has grown in areas of the pond. How do I go about clearing that brush and organic matter?

I was thinking an excavator but the pond is probably at least 1.5 acres and is still somewhat swampy and muddy so I wouldn't be able to drive an excavator into the pond itself.

I believe the entire pond is also lined with Clay and I wouldn't want to date to deepen disrupt that. Thoughts?

The pond is in western Washington.
