BCA part is for the whole project as I am building a new house on the empty land. Gotta plan some details in as the pond is next to the house. PE need to account for the trenches when doing the column footers and ground beams.

As for building pond on land where house is already done, if the hole end up more than 1.5m deep then need by right need PE to submit details. By left as long as no damage to neighbour, ppl don't care. My current pond is scraping the limit. One way to increase depth without getting PE involved is to do half in half out pond.
