In terms of moving water, it is far, far more dificult to pull water. Much
easier to push water. FRom what I know, you'd be much better off to put the
pump at or next to the creek.

Hi all,

Thanks for all the info.

I did check with the County, and they said it was OK to pull water from
the creek for irrigation.

However, I really do not want to put the pump in the creek - is there
are particular pump (or pump specification) that I need to look for to
be able to pull the water out of the creek (instead of pushing it)? I
don't mind using more than 1 pump and could use galvanized pipe.

Thanks,
Budman
