Just a thought..
If a farmer can put drain tile in a field and basically drain it wherever they want (ahem, ahem) can a guy that lives in the country put drain tile throughout his yard that feeds into the ditch?
My house sits on a nice big bed of clay, so on heavy rains and or years with massive snow drifts the water will soak into the ground and just sit there. Not that I ever would do it but curiosity got me thinking, why couldn't I put drain tile from my house and stretch it to the ditch down hill about 100 yds away?
