Home My WebLink About20000623 EXHIBIT I Soils Information Six types of soil lie within the permit area according to the Weld County Soil Survey, conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture. They are as follows: 1. (3) Aquolls and Aquents, Gravelly Substatum 2. (10) Bankard Sandy Loam 3. (32) Kim Loam 4. (41)Nunn Clay Loam 5. (47) Olney Fine Sandy Loam 6. (50, 51, 52) Otero Sandy Loam See Attached Map. (3) Aquolls and Aquents, Gravelly Substratum This map unit is on bottom lands and floodplains of all major streams in the survey area. This unit consists of 60 percent Aquolls and 35 percent Aquents soils. These soils are deep, and poorly drained. They formed in recent alluvium. The surface is a mildly alkaline to moderately alkaline loamy or clayey layer, as well as the underlying material which is underlain by sand or sand and gravel within 48 inches. The water table is at or n ear the surface, creating a hydric soil condition. The erosion hazard due to wind is low. (10) Bankard Sandy Loam, 0 to 3 percent slopes The Bankard soils is a deep, somewhat excessively drained soil. It is formed on floodplains from stratified recent alluvium. The surface is a sandy loam. The underlying material is a calcareous sand stratified with thin lenses of sandy loam, loam, and fine gravel. The soils have moderately rapid permeability. Their available water holding capacity is low. Roots penetrate to 60 inches or more. Runoff is slow and the erosion hazard due to wind is severe. (32) Kim Loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes The Kim soil is a deep, well drained soil. It is formed on smooth plains and alluvial fans from mixed eolian deposits and parent material. The surface and subsoil is a loam. The underlying material is a fine sandy loam. The soils have moderate permeability. Their available water holding capacity is high. Roots penetrate to 60 inches or more. Runoff is slow and the erosion hazard due to wind is high. (41) Nunn Clay Loam, 0 to 1 percent slopes This is a deep, well drained soil on terraces and smooth plains. It formed in mixed alluvioum and eolian deposits. Permeability is moderately slow. Available water capacity is high. The effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Surface runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is low. River View Resource, I 4 2000-0623 (47) Olney Fine Sandy Loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes This is a deep, well drained soil. It formed in mixed outwash deposits. Typically the surface layer of this Olney soil is grayish brown fine sandy loam about 10 inches thick. The subsoil is yellowish brown and very pale brown sandy clay loam about: 14 inches thick. The substratum to a depth of 60 inches is very pale brown, calcareous fine sandy loam. Permeability and available water capacity are moderate. The effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is low. (50) (51) (52) Otero Sandy Loam The Otero soil is a deep, well drained soil. It is formed on smooth plains in mixed outwash deposits. The surface is a sandy loam. The underlying material is a calcareous fine sandy loam. The soils have rapid permeability. Their available water holding capacity is moderate. Roots penetrate to 60 inches or more. Runoff is slow ad the erosion hazard due to wind is severe. River View Resource, CAMAS Colorado,Inc.
