New Pond Design and Construction

New Pond Construction by Wade Bales, Quality Lakes, Inc. – www.qualitylakes.com

Quality Lakes Inc. was contracted to design a pond for a client in South Carolina.  The challenge was meeting the permit requirements for maximum surface acreage and maximum storage capacity which limited the overall size of the pond.  “By utilizing the lake design tools available through our partnership with The Mapping Network, we were able to design a pond to meet permitting specifications while maximizing fish habitat and access by bank anglers to all regions of the pond” said Mr. Bales.

New Lake Planning

Greg Grimes (Aquatic Environmental Services, Inc) was contracted to assist with preliminary planning of a lake for a client in Georgia.   Greg said “by utilizing the lake design tools available through our partnership with The Mapping Network, we were able to see how large the lake would be, the max depth, average depth, size of the dam and also the watershed.” With the map the client was able to see potential challenges with a limited watershed.  Information like this is critical when in the planning phase and now the landowner will scale back his lake plans based on the size of the watershed.   Then next step will include engineering specs and the permitting process which will ultimately lead to the construction of the lake.

New Pond Design and Construction

New Pond Construction by Wade Bales, Quality Lakes, Inc. – www.qualitylakes.com

One of our lake construction projects is underway!  Our clients had the opportunity to build two new ponds, the first of which was completed in 2009.  Great little pond, growing largemouth and bluegill as we speak.  The second pond is under construction now.  With the help of our partners at The Mapping Network, we designed a 5-7 acre pond based on the available acreage.   Unfortunately there were many cubic yards of fill that had to remain on site.  However, creating a contour map with the required slopes and more importantly the necessary access and structure for boat and bank anglers alike, made the process easier for the contractor and has our client very excited about a great new pond.    Plenty of structure has already been added.  Liming, stocking, and littoral plantings will take place later this year.
