<br />EXHIBIT I - Soils Information <br />The U.S. Soils Conservation Service has designated the <br />affected area as 60% Clifsand soil, 30% Chroder soil and 10% <br />Tipperary loamy sand on dunes near escarpments. For a <br />description of these soils see Exhibit I-1 attached. <br />EXHIBIT J - Vegetation Information <br />The Soil Conservation Service describes the potential <br />plant community on this unit as mainly Wyoming big sage, <br />shadescale, needle and thread, western wheatgrass, <br />bottlebrush squirreltail, thickspike wheatgrass, and Indian <br />wheatgrass. However, the affected area is nearly barren of <br />vegetation because of heavy livestock and wildlife grazing <br />and because of the destructive forces of local prairie dog <br />towns. For a description of the vegetation see Exhibit I-1. <br />EXHIBIT K - Climate Information <br />The elevation of the affected area is 5840 above sea <br />level. The average annual precipitation is 7 to 10 inches, <br />the average annual air temperature is 45 to 48 degrees F, <br />and the average frost-free period is 90 to 105 days. For a <br />description of the climate information see Exhibit I-1. <br />
