Well --- as it turns out -- to do that we'd have to haul off 20,000 cubic yards of dirt... that's 2,000 dump truck loads -- and where they'd have to haul it and then make that a round trip -- would equal 46,000 "truck miles". There's even more too it - but that gets complicated to explain. So that "shop" is O U T.....
