Parkdale Project • ~ ~ Reclamation Permit <br />2.5 Map Unit E- Gravel Quarry and Facilities Site <br />This unit occurs on a nearly level bench, or terrace, below and to the east of Map Unit D <br />and is immediately adjacent to the borders of Tallahassee Creek. Approximately 90 <br />percent of this unit is overlain with soils 40+ inches deep. The remaining 10 percent <br />consists of more shallow soils over a concentration of gravels, cobbles, and stones. This <br />mapping inclusion occurs azound the borders of the unit with Map Unit D and the slopes <br />leading down to Tallahassee Creek. The dominant soil is the Kim loam as mapped by <br />the SCS. As such, a soil sample was not collected from this unit. <br />The dominant soil of this unit is suitable for salvage to a depth of 18+ inches over 90 <br />percent of this unit. Salvage may occur over the remaining 10 percent of the unit to <br />varying depths opportunistically. The volume available from opportunistic salvage <br />cannot be calculated with certainty. <br />U.S.D.A. Natural Resources Conservation Service (SCS). 1995.
