| Before: Above you can see the slopes have lost top soil and are prone to errosion. |
|
After: Imported top soil has been added to the slopes where grass will take root. |

 |
| Before: Water flowed in from up top and created a major washout. |
|
Corrective Action: A pipe was installed and buried to redirect water and ensure the integrity of the pond.
|
|
After: Pipe installed and concrete poured. |

The water shed came from the parking lot and from the wash rack area and flowed in the pond at the corner where it washed out a huge area. Daniel Dean placed a berm at the edge of the slope and a slight swell in front of it to drain the water into the pond through our new back slope interceptor seen below. |

At left are pictures of the installed back slope interceptor. Behind it Daniel Dean built a berm in such a way that if there was a big flood, water will flow into the pond (as you can barely see toward the concrete pilot channel in the bottom of the pond). |
