PARTS OF AN EARTHEN POND
The site where ponds are to be constructed must be able to
access continuous flow of good quality water allyearround.
The water source can include; stream, spring, shallow well,
Valley dam, Lake or river diversion. The best case scenario

such as pumping can result into prohibitive operating cost
