      Hey,

      Wondering how deep the excavated pond in the riverbed is when it’s implemented during the dry season. Hard to find location specific data.

      Link for reference:

      Infrastructure for water supply

      Thanks

        Hi Shane,

        Thanks for your question. You’re correct – it is difficult to find location specific data for Port Stewart. In this case, I would make a reasonable assumption based on data that is currently published.

        Some resources that may help:
        – Guidelines for pond aquaculture
        – Finding The Sweet Spot: Calculating The Right Depth For Your Dam

        Hope this helps.

        Kind regards,
        Evelyn
