Well, really no. You just have to plan for where it will overflow.

Yep, either have a slightly lower end, or better, for more control, put in
an over flow pipe. For my lily pond we plan to build it into the filter
barrels since it is a formal pond, from the filter barrels overflow can run
out onto the lawn. ~ jan
