<br /> <br />Below 51 inches is sand and gravel. Permeability is moderate, and the available <br />water holding capacity is high. Runoff is slow, and the hazard of water erosion is <br />slight. <br />Loveland Clav Loam, 0 to 1 Percent Slopes <br />This soil occurs on low terraces and flood plains. The Loveland series consists <br />of deep, somewhat poorly drained soils that were formed in material weathered <br />from alluvium. Typically, the surface layer is a clay loam about 15 inches thick. <br />The upper part of the underlying material is 17 inches thick and is a clay loam. <br />The lower part to 60 inches or more is very gravelly sand. Permeability is slow <br />above a depth of 32 inches and very rapid below that depth. The available water <br />capacity is medium to high. Runoff is slow, and the hazard of water erosion is <br />slight. <br />Topsoil removed for mining will be stockpiled and reused for site revegetation. <br />There will be excess topsoil due to the ponds (which do not require revegetation <br />except for the shorelines). Excess topsoil may be sold. <br />39 <br />
