302 -Cumulic Haploborolls <br />MAJOR MANAGEMENT FACTORS <br />Recreation <br />Soil-related factors: limited available water capacity, subsurface rock fragments, spring runoff <br />flooding <br />Management considerations: <br />Excavation on this unit may be hampered by rock fragments in the soil profile. <br />Soil wetness and low bearing capacity will affect the use and management of this unit. <br />The potential for resource damage to Cumulic Haploborolls is very high if management activities <br />involve the use of heavy equipment. <br />Higher construction and maintenance costs should be expected on this unit. <br />Rangeland <br />Soil-related factors: limited available water capacity, subsurface rock fragments, spring runoff <br />flooding <br />Management considerations: <br />Because of lush vegetation and easy access to water, this unit is very susceptible to overgrazing. <br />• Therefore, livestock grazing should be monitored on a regular basis. <br />Delay grazing until the soil is adequately drained and is firm enough to withstand trampling by <br />livestock. <br />The soils are easily traversed by livestock. <br />INTERPRETIVE GROUPS <br />Land capability classification: IVc <br />Plant Association: Pooulus anaustifolia/Amelanchier alnifolia.
