Initial Pool Backfilling & Soil Assessment

What happens here
A Kubota compact track loader (skid steer) starts filling the empty swimming pool. The initial soil brought in is described as 'nice, clean structural fill'. The machine efficiently maneuvers within the pool's confines, spreading the first layer of dirt. However, a later load of fill delivered by a dump truck is identified as 'mud' rather than proper structural fill, due to prolonged rain making the soil super saturated. This necessitates a revised approach to manage the wet conditions and prevent structural issues in the backfilled area.
Goal: A compact track loader begins backfilling the empty swimming pool with structural fill. However, subsequent loads of soil are found to be excessively wet and muddy, leading to a change in the backfilling strategy.
