What happens here
To expedite the backfilling of the large washout, a Cat skid-steer loader is brought in. It strategically places piles of soil near the washout, making it easier for the mini-excavator to reach and grab the material. This collaborative approach efficiently fills the deep hole, minimizing spill and ensuring the fabric remains properly covered. Hand tamping is used for final compaction in hard-to-reach areas.
Goal: Efficiently backfill the large washout area.
