1 <br />and the FAC which occur or. greater than 15 percent slopes. <br />Generally, slopes in the FAC map unit do not a:ceed 2C~ percent <br />e;:cept on what appears to be morainal deposits from past <br />' glaciation. <br />Soils within this map unit are well drained with moderate to <br />' rapid permeabilities and may or may not have gravelly or cobbly <br />i <br />profiles above the C horizon. See photo #4 E;:hibit I. Sails <br />within this map unit have moderate erosion hazards and ~~.1~> <br />inchesiinch available water-holding capacity. <br />Map unit G0: Soils of this unit appear to occur on <br />north/south trending lateral moraines of past glaciation. They <br />are generally very gravelly (five gravels) in the surface foot <br />1 with cobbles occurring below 1~ inches. The te;:tures below <4 <br />' inches are usually cobbly loam or cobbly sandy looms. These <br />te;:tares generally prevail to bedroc4::, about 4~~ feet. This C- <br />' horizon material, from about 24 inches to 4~~ feet, would provide <br />an e::cellent plant-growth medium if the coarse gravels and cob- <br />1 tiles were removed 6y screening. See photos 5 thru 7, E;:hibit I. <br />' Soils of this map unit are well drained and have moderately <br />rapid permeabilities. Material in the C-horzon, parent material. <br />' are estimated to have an available water-balding capacity between <br />~~.~>9 and ~~.1~ inchesiinch. If used in reclamation with the <br />1 coarse gravels and cobbles removed this would mean between 1.08 <br />' and 1.44 inches of available water per foot of material placed. <br />This amount of water holding ability is similar to the topsoils <br />that e;;ist in other map units. <br />These soils have a h~.gh erasion hazard to wind and water. <br />' ~4 <br />
