I thought I had asked this but I guess not...
There is a small stream passing by my house about 30' away. My house is elevated and the lawn slopes away nicely so its not a total problem.
However, its very slow flowing as it gets to the back of my house. It becomess basically a swamp. I would like to pipe this starting at the rear of my house, and all the way to the end of my 3/4 acre lot (it flows rearward). Maybe 60 yards, that way I can dry this swampish area out somewhat and reduce my mosquito problems.
Also I wouldn't mind building up burms on either side so as to keep the stream flowing in a small contained area. It could be very pretty if done nicely I think. This area however is full of trees and other growth so it could be tough.
Feasible? Legal?
