Basically, loose organic material should be cleared away along what will become the centerline of the dyke at the base so that the dyke can "seal" to the underlying water-tight soil. In the second instance, this refers to repair of an existing dyke which is leaking. It is placed along side the dyke to increase the area that the repaired dyke is in contact with the underlying soil.' at: '' cobolom2001@aol.com
Very useful and instructive but the issue about the "puddle trenches" location is confusing. In one place it places it in the middle of the wall (base?)due to organic matter in the floor and then more towards a side, etc,.|Delete 'P-' before: '' but after: '
Is there a site that would deal more specifically with earthen walls ponds or a book that wouldn´t cost an arm and a leg.
Thank you
