Been working on this municipal project for way too long now. Having to push the silty slop around to even get to the point of being able to rehab the dam has been a draining experience all the way around. At least it hasn't been without a colorful cast of characters. 🦆🐟

Today I met with a property manager who needs to rehab his existing pond. As you can see from the picture the pond is currently not holding water. We discussed some alternatives and his goals for the pond and surrounding property. Now to do some rough design work and cost estimates so that he has a better idea of what to expect going in.

Native hibiscus, or swamp rose, pepper a wetland cell I checked on today. The extensive rain we received this year has presented significant challenges in controlling water levels in this cell. If the wet weather continues, this project will likely be delayed into the next year.

Wetland plant identification is essential to proper management. This landowner didn't realize what he had when he requested I disc this emerging vegetation under so they could plant a crop in this cell. Instead I encouraged him to give it some time to grow and the result was an excellent cover of smartweed, one of the most desirable wetland plants and waterfowl food source.

After trying to get on this wetland project for three years now, I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Third time's a charm! 🍀😁

As you can imagine I use a lot of different tools in my day-to-day work. I'm a big fan of the quality and durability in . Their relatively new line of products is no exception. Now I have to be honest, this setup was actually built to take along in the Jeep while off-roading in the mountains last summer and fall. I've always taken the essentials just in case but have never really had to use them. For this setup I added some high density foam cut to fit the various pieces. How do you manage your tools?

About

Growing up, my dad was always a dozer operator for one of the local businesses. Although he never had his own business, he was widely known as the best dozer man around. As any boy would, I watched my dad and learned a lot from him. As I got older I honed my own talents, skills and knowledge, not only in the operation of the machinery but in many other important facets essential to what I was doing with the machinery. Then in 1994, I took a huge leap of faith and started my own business.

Throughout my career I’ve been blessed with so many opportunities, a diverse body of work, and of course many wonderful clients that have also become treasured friends. In the early days, during the boon of government assisted erosion control projects, I built so many ponds I wish now I’d kept track of how many. Partnering with the USDA-NRCS (Natural Resources Conservation Service) became a vital way of life for a contractor trying to provide the most accurate and beneficial information to his clients. Over the years, my work evolved to include a large number of nuisance cedar tree removal and wetland restoration/enhancement projects. Again, knowledge of the resources is essential to assisting clients with these types of projects.

In addition to the passion I have for my craft and the quality of work that I produce, the knowledge I’ve gained about land characteristics have allowed me to provide effective, practical solutions to clients. My job is to help people accomplish their goals for their land by helping them evaluate variables such as drainage patterns, soil types, vegetation and much more. For example, someone may want to hire me to build them a pond. They may have the perfect location in mind but in consultation with them, I may find that there’s not enough drainage to support what they had in mind. I certainly don’t want to spend my time and their money on something that won’t work. Maybe I can help them find a suitable alternative. People will ask me, “how much do you charge to build a pond?” That’s simply not a question I can answer without looking at the site and talking to them about what they want to accomplish with it. There are just so many variables to consider when working with natural resources. Even a per-hour price has to take into account the size of the machine and the experience and skill of the operator. In this business there are no “money-back guarantees”. There’s only my word and a handshake that I’ll do what I know to do to help you accomplish your goals as efficiently and effectively as possible. That’s just me and the way I do business.
