Map Unit Description(Brief,Generated)—El Paso County Area,Colorado Ellicot Sand and Gravel-Schubert <br /> Ranch <br /> The Ellicott component makes up 85 percent of the map unit. Slopes are 0 to 5 <br /> percent. This component is on stream terraces, flood plains. The parent material <br /> consists of sandy alluvium. Depth to a root restrictive layer is greater than 60 <br /> 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 <br /> percent. This component is in the R069XY031CO Sandy Sottomland ecological <br /> site. Nonirrigated land capability classification is 7w.This soil does not meet <br /> hydric criteria. <br /> Component: Fluvaquentic haplaquoll(%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components.The <br /> Fluvaquentic haplaquoll soil is a minor component. <br /> Component: Other soils(%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components.The <br /> Other soils soil is a minor component. <br /> Component: Pleasant(%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components.

Slopes are 0 to <br /> 3 percent. This component is on alluvial fans, terraces, depressions.The parent <br /> material consists of alluvium. Depth to a root restrictive layer is greater than 60 <br /> inches. The natural drainage class is well drained. Water movement in the most <br /> restrictive layer is moderately high.Available water to a depth of 60 inches (or <br /> restricted depth)is high. Shrink-swell potential is low.This soil is not flooded. It is <br /> not ponded. There is no zone of water saturation within a depth of 72 inches. <br /> Organic matter content in the surface horizon is about 4 percent. Nonirrigated <br /> land capability classification is 3c. Irrigated land capability classification is 2e. <br /> This soil does not meet hydric criteria.The calcium carbonate equivalent within <br /> 40 inches, typically, does not exceed 8 percent. <br /> Component: Pleasant(%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components.The <br /> Pleasant soil is a minor component. <br /> Component: Other soils(%) <br /> ��ols Natural Resources Web Soil Survey 3/27/2018 <br /> Conservation Service National Cooperative Soil Survey Page 3 of 6 <br /> 30 <br />
