Landowners should educate themselves about the topography, water diversion problems, and cycles of rainfall, evaporation, and drainage. Excess water on a property can be problematic and modern diversion techniques, farming, population growth, and pollution have wreaked havoc on much of the Earth's natural drainage ability. A topographic map and knowledge of low-tech methods of deflecting water away from desired areas can reduce harmful impact on the environment.
