• <br />~.^,~ <br />~~ <br />~~ ~w <br />Wildlife is an important secondary use, with these soils best :suited for <br />openland wildlife. Habitat favorable for ring-necked pheasant:;, mourning <br />doves and many non-game species can be developed by establishing wildlife <br />areas for nesting and escape cover. For pheasants, the inclus:;on of <br />undisturbed nesting cover is vital and should be included in p:_ans for <br />habitat development. This is especially true in areas of intensive <br />agriculture. <br />Rapid expansion of the Greeley and surrounding area has resulted in urbani- <br />zation of much of this Otero soil. It has excellent potential for urban <br />and recreational_development::.-Its:primary limitin~:feature is the moder- <br />ately rapid permeability in the substratum and the hazard of contamination <br />of ground water from sewage lagoons. Slope will necessitate some added <br />cost for site preparation. Lawns, shrubs and trees for beauti:`ication will <br />do well. <br />Capability subclass IVe-irrigated •-_.-„-__•- <br />VIe nonirrigated <br />(~_ .•.'1 <br />\\ <br />Sandy plains range site <br /> <br />
