re: How much to fill in an acre with dirt?

I'd think you should be able to get that done for about 1K/day. It may only take him 3 days if you monitor and direct the job.

Good deal, thank you. If the land is wetlands and I'm told unofficially it's not and according to what I can find online it is not then I wouldn't mess with it. I agree that's a PITA and not worth it.

I knew hauling in dirt would be pricey I just wasn't sure what a ball park figure would be over escavating it. As said the dirt was sold to the DOT so the 10 acres is not all under water. There's a road frontage and it looks shallow. I'm not in a hurry so if it had to sit awhile to dry out and then I had to drop say $10k on dirt brought in from elsewhere that would not be a deterrent.

How often is dry land in which the dirt was sold privately get changed officially into 'wetlands'?
