• • -5- <br />NoT~s. <br />1). According to the Soil Conservation Service, the soil survey order levels <br />are as follows (specific to general): <br />a). Level One--- <br />:;oil complexes and types <br />hlap from aerial photos and ground survey <br />Scale: less than 1:12000 covering 1.5 acres or less <br />b), Level Two--- <br />Sail complexes and phases <br />I•;ap from ground observations and remote sensing data <br />Scale: 1:12000 to 1:31680 covering 1.5 to 10 acres <br />c). Level Three--- <br />Soil phases and families <br />P:ap from spot observations and remote sensing data <br />Scale: .1:24000 to 1:250000 covering 6 to 640 acres <br />d). Level Four--- <br />Soil patterns <br />h;ap from spot observations <br />scale: 1:100000 to 1:300000 covering more than 640 acres <br />e). Level Five--- <br />Soil patterns <br />flap select areas and correlate <br />Scale: 1:250000 to 1:1000000 covering more than 640 acres <br />2).
