    Ill add it will also be best to cover the top of the stone with filter fabric and key the fabric into exsiting ground then topsoil it so your topsoil will not fall into the voids of the stone during rains creating a dip in the yard.

    It may be cheaper to use "certified" clean fill. Definition of "certified" varies with state environmental requirements. #2 clean stone can get expensive by comparison.

    Yes but that deep of a hole the fill dirt would need to be compacted in "lifts" to be done right even tho it may be a " green area" or else itll settle over time.
