[QUOTE="Shoot Summ, post: 3202231, member: 1055"] Several choices. Redirect, not easy, have to be mindful of the impact to others, typically a lot of material involved, soil, ties, rocks, etc. Drain, a good option, but needs to be sized for what appears to be a significant volume. I would use drain boxes, and rigid pipe. Pop ups wont handle that flow unless you have a lot of them. You will want to cover the open ends of the drain pipes somehow to keep rats and critters out, but it also means you will have to clean the covering as it will likely accumulate debris. Embellish, make a "creek" that runs through your yard with stones and rocks, channel the flow, and make it a "feature" of your landscape. I've seen this done a lot, and it can actually be a nice addition to the overall landscape design. [/QUOTE]
