[QUOTE="Mungoman, post: 121779, member: 2730"] G'day all, I've been thinking on this problem of turbidity, and pumps, and it seems to me that if turbidity is the real problem with motorised sluicing, then why not have an isolated, circulating water system? Simply have a 44 gallon drum split through the centre, your pump, with some sort of a sediment trap involved in the half 44, and away you go. When you've finished, dig a hole away from the creek or river and pour the re-circulated water into the hole. while the water is being absorbed by the hole, we process our fines by hand, then backfill the hole we dug for the mucky water. If they still disallow this solution, then the problem is the use of a pump, rather than turbidity. What do you reckon? [/QUOTE]
