Dear Master Cecil,
I am trying to post the photo again. The pond shown in the photo
is rain water retention pond which temporally hold rain water before it
goes to the sream that runs through the wood area behind the pond. The
water is nearly all year around in the pond (typically hold water of
about few meters.
Thanks in advance for advising us if the pond would pose any harm to the
recsidents in the house.
Mike
PS: the front yard (SW) of the house is few meter lower than the back yard (NE); and the east side of the house is only a half meter higher than the west of the house inside the property. Further west of the property, which belongs to community, the elevation starts to drop about 2 meters from the property line to the pond boundary.
