6.20.22 Hole in the ground

Over in front of the bunk house they are digging a hole which looks fairly large. Wonder if this is where they are going to bury that orange tank?

Just curious, do we know what the orange tank is for(and I was wondering if they were going to bury it there, too)?

Well, whatever it was about did involve the orange tank, they have filled in the hole.

The orange tank (maybe Red) looks to be a diesel oil tank with a self containment built into it(flat sides on bottom half). I guess what they were digging was either a underground power line to supply the power to the pump, or they were doing the above also and running the pipe to supply the oil underground to keep the everything out of sight.
