Map Unit Description(Brief,Generated)--Weld County,Colorado,Southern Part 8th Street <br /> The Ellicott sandy-skeletal, rarely flooded component makes up 25 percent of the <br /> map unit. Slopes are 0 to 3 percent. This component is on channels on <br /> intermittent streams on uplands, channels on drainageways on uplands. The <br /> parent material consists of noncalcareous, stratified sandy alluvium. Depth to a <br /> root restrictive layer is greater than 60 inches. The natural drainage class is <br /> excessively drained. Water movement in the most restrictive layer is high. <br /> Available water to a depth of 60 inches(or restricted depth) is very low. Shrink- <br /> swell potential is low. This soil is rarely flooded. It is not ponded. There is no zone <br /> of water saturation within a depth of 72 inches. Organic matter content in the <br /> surface horizon is about 1 percent. This component is in the R067BY031CO <br /> Sandy Bottomland ecological site. Nonirrigated land capability classification is 8s. <br /> Irrigated land capability classification is 4s. This soil does not meet hydric criteria. <br /> There are no saline horizons within 30 inches of the soil surface. <br /> Component: Haverson (10%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components. The <br /> Haverson soil is a minor component. <br /> Map Unit: 21—Dacono clay loam, 0 to 1 percent slopes <br /> Component: Dacono (85%) <br /> The Dacono component makes up 85 percent of the map unit. Slopes are 0 to 1 <br /> percent. This component is on terraces. The parent material consists of mixed <br /> alluvium. Depth to a root restrictive layer is greater than 60 inches. The natural <br /> drainage class is well drained. Water movement in the most restrictive layer is <br /> moderately high.Available water to a depth of 60 inches(or restricted depth) is <br /> moderate. Shrink-swell potential is moderate. This soil is not flooded. It is not <br /> ponded. There is no zone of water saturation within a depth of 72 inches. <br /> Organic matter content in the surface horizon is about 3 percent. This component <br /> is in the R067BY042CO Clayey Plains ecological site. Nonirrigated land <br /> capability classification is 3s. Irrigated land capability classification is 2s. This soil <br /> does not meet hydric criteria. The calcium carbonate equivalent within 40 inches, <br /> typically, does not exceed 10 percent. There are no saline horizons within 30 <br /> inches of the soil surface. <br /> Component: Heldt(5%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components. The <br /> Heldt soil is a minor component. <br /> Component: Nunn (5%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components. The <br /> Nunn soil is a minor component. <br /> Component:Altvan (5%) <br /> Generated brief soil descriptions are created for major soil components. The <br /> Altvan soil is a minor component. <br /> usDA Natural Resources Web Soil Survey 12/21/2022 <br /> Conservation Service National Cooperative Soil Survey Page 3 of 4 <br />
