_ Exhibit Bl~page 1 of 2) <br />4/83 <br />_ ~. <br />~ Ry:D-Rim-Midway complex, 6 to 15 percent elopes. This map unit is <br />on terr.3ce edges, intermittent streambanks, and ridges. Areas are long and <br />irregular in shape and are 20 to 120 acres in size. The native vegetation is <br />mainly short grasses and midgrasses. The average annual precipitation is <br />about 13 to 15 inches. <br />This unit is 30 percent Kim loam and 30 percent Midway clay loam. Kim <br />loam is in the upper, more sloping areas; itidway clay loam is on side slopes; <br />and Stoneham loam is on nearly level tops and on side slopes. <br />Included in this unit are small areas of Razor clay loam, Stoneham loam, <br />Manzanola clay loam, Ulm loam, and Schamber soils. Included areas make up <br />about 40 percent of the total acreage. <br />The Kim soil is deep and well drained. It formed in calcareous loess <br />/~ and alluvium derived dominantly from mixed sources. Typically, the surface <br />layer is light brownish gray calcareous loam 9 inches thick. The upper 21 <br />inches of the substratum is very pale brown calcareous loam. The lower part <br />to a depth of 60 inches is light yellowish brown calcareous sandy clay loam. <br />Permeability of the Kim soil is moderate. Available water capacity is <br />high. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Runoff is rapid, and <br />the hazard of water erosion is high. The hazard of soil blowing is high. <br />.The Midway soil is shallow and well drained. It formed in clayey <br />residuum derived dominantly from soft gypsiferous shale. Typically, the <br />surface layer is pale brown calcareous clay loam 2 inches thick. The upper 5 <br />inches of the underlying material is light brownish gray calcareous clay. <br />The lower part to a depth of 13 inches is light gray calcareous clay. Soft <br />clay shale is at a depth of 13 inches. <br />~""` <br />t' <br />a <br />
