<br />EXHIBIT I <br />Soils Information <br />Six types of soil lie within the permit azea according to the Weld County Soil Survey, conducted <br />by the United States Department of Agriculture. They are as follows: <br />1. (3) Aquolls and Aquents, Gravelly Substatum <br />2. (10) Bankard Sandy Loam <br />3. (32) Kim Loam <br />4. (41) Nunn Clay Loam <br />5. (47) Olney Fine Sandy Loam <br />6. (50, 51, 52) Otero Sandy Loam <br />See Attached Map. <br />(31 Aouolls and Aquents, Gravelly Substratum <br />This map unit is on bottom lands and floodplains of all major streams in the survey area. This <br />unit consists of 60 percent Aquolls and 35 percent Aquents soils. These soils are deep, and poorly <br />drained. They formed in recent alluvium. The surface is a mildly alkaline to moderately alkaline <br />loamy or clayey layer, as well as the underlying material which is underlain by sand or sand and <br />gravel within 48 inches. The water table is at or n ear the surface, creating a hydric soil condition. <br />The erosion hazard due to wind is low. <br />(101 Bankazd Sandy Loam. 0 to 3 percent slopes <br />The Bankard soils is a deep, somewhat excessively drained soil. It is formed on floodplains from <br />stratified recent alluvium. The surface is a sandy loam. The underlying material is a calcareous <br />sand stratified with thin lenses of sandy loam, loam, and fine gravel. The soils have moderately <br />rapid permeability. Their available water holding capacity is low. Roots penetrate to 60 inches or <br />more. Runoff is slow and the erosion hazazd due to wind is severe. <br />(321 Kim Loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes <br />The Kim soil is a deep, well drained soil. It is formed on smooth plains and alluvial fans from <br />mixed eolian deposits and pazent material. The surface and subsoil is a loam. The underlying <br />material is a fine sandy loam. The soils have moderate permeability. Their available water <br />holding capacity is high. Roots penetrate to 60 inches or more. Runoff is slow and the erosion <br />hazard due to wind is high. <br />(411 Nunn Clay Loam, 0 to 1 percent slopes <br />This is a deep, well drained soil on terraces and smooth plains. It formed in mixed alluvioum and <br />eolian deposits. Permeability is moderately slow. Available water capacity is high. The effective <br />rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Surface runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is low. <br />River View Resource, CAMAS Colorndo, Int. <br />DMG 112 Permit <br />Page 15 <br />
