Do I need a permit to build a pond?
Unless a pond is proposed to be constructed in the floodplain, no permit is required by the county. Please note however, that no part of the pond can be located within the right-of-way. Please contact the planning department or road and bridge department to determine the right-of-way width. Permits may be required through the state for pond construction. Please contact the Kansas Department of Agriculture, Division of Water Resources for information and state permitting procedures. For helpful advice on pond construction and soil conservation, please contact the local Natural Resources Conservation Service at 913-294-3751, extension 3, or robert.allen@ks.nacdnet.net.
