[QUOTE="dun, post: 374283, member: 34"] Trees in the dam or too close to a pond is a disaster in the making. Roots can/will penetrate the pond or a root may day and leave a void that water is just waiting for an opportunity to get into and drain the pond or at a minimum leak badly. But that depends on the type of trees also. Very shallow rooted trees aren;t much of a problem, deep rooted trees cause most of the trouble with leaking ponds. A load of 2 inch clean rock dropped in the spillway and spread around makes a pretty erosion proof spillway. dun [/QUOTE]
