You may also want to sign onto misc.rural news group. They have a lot of
information regarding larger ponds. I cannot even imagine maintenance of a
pond that large. My father in law has 1/2 acre pond with a lot of trouble
with turbidity and that newsgroup was helpful for him so . . . good luck
with this huge project : - )
