[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 178727, member: 704"] Lunker what do they do with the holding pond when it is filled? At some point in time solid waste must be disposed of. They can break it down to liquid, but the solids remain and silt in the pond. Soon it is full. Perhaps there is technology advancements in the past six or seven years. I know just as I retired we were called in to give expert opinion on a turkey farm. The guy had built his buildings right on top of wetlands he had filled. I guess he didn't realize we had historic photos from 1957. Also soil samples provided aquatic macroinvertebrates on the site. I don't get these guys thinking they can step right in and run over the local farmers and residents of the area. I don't know Kurt. Happy to hear that. Keep us up to date on that if you don't mind. Check out google earth today. Those ponds on the Carrington site are full. Google earth says the creek is 1545 and the pond is 1548 elevation. The vegetation in the area is picking up high nutrients from somewhere, but it could be upstream fertilizer. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, but those ponds should not be as close to the creek as they are in my opinion. I have followed streams on google earth and have to ask why set up along water run off sites?
