Map Unit Description(Brief,Generated)---Washington County,Colorado Sec-5,Twn-5S,Rng-49W <br /> Component:Ascalon (85%) <br /> The Ascalon component makes up 85 percent of the map unit. Slopes are 3 to 9 <br /> percent. This component is on interfluves, dissected plains. The parent material <br /> consists of wind-reworked alluvium and/or calcareous sandy eolian deposits.Depth <br /> to a root restrictive layer is greater than 60 inches. The natural drainage class is <br /> well drained. Water movement in the most restrictive layer is moderately high. <br /> Available water to a depth of 60 inches (or restricted depth) is moderate. Shrink- <br /> swell potential is low. This soil is not flooded. It is not ponded. There is no zone of <br /> water saturation within a depth of 72 inches. Organic matter content in the surface <br /> horizon is about 1 percent. This component is in the R067BY024CO Sandy Plains <br /> ecological site. Nonirrigated land capability classification is 6e. Irrigated land <br /> capability classification is 6e. This soil does not meet hydric criteria. The calcium <br /> carbonate equivalent within 40 inches,typically, does not exceed 8 percent.There <br /> are no saline horizons within 30 inches of the soil surface. <br /> Component: Olnest (10%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components.The Olnest <br /> soil is a minor component. <br /> Component:Vona(5%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components.The Vona <br /> soil is a minor component. <br /> Map Unit: 7—Bankard sandy loam, 0 to 3 percent slopes, frequently flooded <br /> Component: Bankard,frequently flooded (80%) <br /> The Bankard,frequently flooded component makes up 80 percent of the map unit. <br /> Slopes are 0 to 3 percent. This component is on flood plains on river valleys. The <br /> parent material consists of sandy alluvium.Depth to a root restrictive layer is greater <br /> than 60 inches.The natural drainage class is somewhat excessively drained.Water <br /> movement in the most restrictive layer is high.Available water to a depth of 60 <br /> inches (or restricted depth) is low. Shrink-swell potential is low. This soil is <br /> frequently flooded. It is not ponded. There is no zone of water saturation within a <br /> depth of 72 inches.Organic matter content in the surface horizon is about 1 percent. <br /> This component is in the R067BY031CO Sandy Bottomland ecological site. <br /> Nonirrigated land capability classification is 6s. Irrigated land capability <br /> classification is 6s. This soil does not meet hydric criteria. The calcium carbonate <br /> equivalent within 40 inches, typically, does not exceed 5 percent. There are no <br /> saline horizons within 30 inches of the soil surface. <br /> Component: Glenberg, rarely flooded (8%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components. The <br /> Glenberg soil is a minor component. <br /> Component: Kitcarson, frequently flooded (5%) <br /> usoA Natural Resources Web Soil Survey 9/14/2016 <br /> Conservation Service National Cooperative Soil Survey Page 3 of 8 <br />
