What happens here

The initial phase involves performing the primary excavation of the pond. As soil is dug out, it is staged at the immediate edge of the pond. A dedicated excavator or a lead skid steer (referred to as 'Mario' in the video context) handles this initial digging and moves the soil only a short distance, piling it up at the water's edge to prepare it for the next stage of transportation.

Goal: Excavate soil and stage it at the pond's edge.
