The volume of a cone is given by the formula $V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$, where $r$ is the radius and $h$ is the height (or depth, in this case). Plugging in the given values, $r = 18$ feet and $h = 28$ feet, and using $\frac{22}{7}$ for $\pi$, we get $V = \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times (18)^2 \times 28$. Simplifying, we find $V = 9504$ cubic feet.
