because the only obvious solution is a tank. I suppose you could round up =
a couple of million 1 gallon jugs & plumb them......har~har.....However, Bo=

uct. Just the infrastructure to fill and drain the tank is a major underta=
king." is a fairly qualified statement.

Without considering your language, that is an answer. I'd be glad if I
could find some of those companies...

No! no! you silly goose. He only needs a 12" high wall...............which
SHOULDN'T be a problem...............


(LOL) but it needs to cover 8.1 acres for 10,000 cubic meters.
10K cubic meters=2,641,720.3728418466 US Gallons
Assuming my math is right...................
1 million U.S. gallons = 3785.4 cubic meters. 1 acre-foot = 1233.5 cubic
meters
