The area proposed <br /> for gravel extraction is classified by the SCS as a BtD, <br /> Blackst n, Stony Loam. This soil type lies within capability <br /> T,_1,_un2t Vle- This soil consists of deep, well-drained material, <br /> and is found in sediment weathered from basalt on high terraces. <br /> Blackstonk soils have moderate permeability above a depth of 28 <br /> inches and rapid permeability below that depth. The hazard of <br /> erosion is classified as moderate. Mining limitations are <br /> nonexistent. <br /> The site is made up of gently sloping to rolling uplands <br /> associated th the Saltdesert environment. The slopes range <br /> from 0 to 50 _percent, and the elevations range from 4 , 800 to <br /> 4, 940 feet in-'the area. <br /> + aLL uu�5 &tte ---�\ <br /> `uBSal� (1,v�. �v1H„� 506� gvrv� l <br /> 5",v CnLca✓�l�1nh 1 <br /> �uhsVS �V S�p � _-�( K��✓Pi lS Gbw+S-ei. / i <br /> I-1 <br />
