qclabrat, how are you dealing with the overflow from your pond?
We're under torrential rain right now and we noticed our neighbor working around his pond about an hour ago. Next thing you know there's a river running on the edge of our property washing away what little grass we have there. I went David Livingston on the newly created creek and found a little fall had formed where a few of the stones were missing from the pile that he originally made up to support the black plastic tarp that makes his pond...I am wondering if this is normal or even legal and what would be a reasonable way to deal with it. We don't have a perfect grass as we haven't got to complete the beatification of the property after the heavy restructuring of our floor and foundations, nevertheless we would like to get there eventually and having a creek running through the property wasn't exactly on the plan...at the same time I don't want to sound petty, but when the rain is gone I am sure there will be a nice gigantic pond of mud along the property line. No bueno!
