To find the volume of dirt that must be removed from the hole, you can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism:

\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} \times \text{Depth}
\]

Given:

- Length = 40 feet
- Width = 24 feet
- Depth = 4 feet

Now substitute the values into the formula:

\[
\text{Volume} = 40 \, \text{feet} \times 24 \, \text{feet} \times 4 \, \text{feet}
\]

Calculating this gives:

\[
\text{Volume} = 40 \times 24 \times 4 = 3840 \, \text{cubic feet}
\]

So, the volume of dirt that must be removed from the site is **3840 cubic feet**.
