I agree that they are for irrigation and we were told that when we bought a water lot also told they are not guaranteed to hold water. Taking water from a residential pond to irrigate a golf course was not part of the deal nor was transporting it to other villages just to fill there ponds to sell lots. I had the pond management guy come out and he gave me a song and dance stating that "HE WAS TOLD" that they pump out about 150,000 gallons each night and pump it back in the next morning. That is a crock as since he was here the pond has gone down daily and never went back up. This never happened until they started building Hammock.
