Default Willows and pond liners

I was wondering whether to plant a small willow fairly close to a pond.
It's Salix petiolaris which is a small shrubby tree which apparently
only grows to 12' or so.

I wonder though whether there's a danger that the roots could find their
way through a a butyl liner. I know they can do that very easily to
drainage pipes.

No but best not to have any deciduous tree near a pond because of the leaves
