Pond removal questions.
The place we just moved into has/had a 10x10x3 foot deep backyard
pond. The previous owner evacuated the wildlife and 1/2 drained it. We'd like to remove it fully -- but how so. The tasks a Remove balance of water - It will need to be pumped so as not to stink up the neighbors yards with sludge water. What sort of pump would work? Would a septic company do something like this? Remove liner - it appears it was a big square as the corners are bunched. I can't think of a way to cut it up till the water is gone (hoping the water would seep out into the ground naturally was a thought, but this is rocky clay soil). Fill it up - Any special precautions? I was thinking just cover the bottom sludge and trash left (cinder blocks, and two broken pumps that live in there now - wonderfully taken care of - I'm happy the fish found a good home). Any other considerations would be helpful as well. Many thanks, -johnj |
