I need some advice on how to proceed sloping this pond with my 7.5 ton excavator. The owner wants the slope to begin about 3-4 feet below the water level that is about 36 feet in diameter right now. It was dug 10 feet down. He wants the top crest sloped down. It is solid clay from the water level down and sandy loam above the water level. There is not much room for screwups in the sequencing because of the close tree line. What is the best way to do this? Push the crest down and travel down it to pull the existing shore back uphill?
There is plenty of clay for sealing. But it is about 200 feet away (behind my red truck in the photo) spread out where he wants to put his house. We'll have to wait to find out how much clay I can move from this site until after the owner is told how thick his foundation pad needs to be.
