I'm looking at a 10 acre tract of land that someone sold the dirt from, so now its basically a crappy pond/ swap land. Given I can get the permits to do so, what would be the ballpark to fill in one acre with fill dirt? I'm assuming this is possible?
You need an engineer inspection, just to determine what is possible, IMHO. If it was a low tract already that they dug out, it will never not flood. If it's rolling and you have some high spots, you can probably get it filled mostly by redistributing what you have and maybe cutting how much you bring in. But, for a long term project, you're going to need to bring in enough to pass a compaction test - sounds like this land would be sketchy for that purpose.
Good luck.
