Default How Do I Build This Pond?


Hello,
Here is an idea i now have. Will it work, and what are the pit falls?
I want a "pond" to be an entirely intigrated part of the creek, as if Mother
Nature had already done it herself, no barriers of any kind to change nor
stop the natural flow of the creek, plus a wide mouth opening into the "pond".
In other words the creek will be "wider" at that point. The creek has huge,
rock slabs as its bottom, so i guess the land is also rocky, and this is
what makes me think it would work. I just want to dig the hole and let Mother
Nature do the rest, and wait for her to settle down before using the "pond",
however i would like to know for what pit falls i should watch. There is
swamp at creek side so the process has already begun, all i want to do
is finish what Mother Nature has already started . . . probably is what makes
the land so cheap . . . Here in Florida, the contractors dig huge "ponds"
to collect the swamp water into one hole, so as to be able to build houses
in swamps, and it works fine.
Another way of saying it is: i want the creek water to pool into a round,
three-"sided" pond. The "pond" will be in the shape of a "C"; the open mouth
of the "pond" on the creek.
Also where can i get information on the Government information and aid, there
is out there, for building types of ponds?
