<br />VoA- Vona loamy sand, 0 to 3% slopes. The soils are well drained, nearly level to moderately <br />sloping soils on terraces uplands. The soils formed in wind-deposited sand material. In a <br />representative profile, the surface layer is light brownish-gray loamy sand about 9" thick that <br />is noncalcareous. The subsoil is pale-brown coarse sandy loam about 13" thick that is <br />noncalcareous. The underlying material is light yellowish-brown sandy loam and very pale <br />brown, highly calcareous loamy sand that contains lime visible as splotches. The soils absorb <br />water very rapidly, the available water capacity is moderate, and permeability is rapid. <br />Surface runoff is moderate to slow, and the hazard of water erosion is slight. <br />Wt- Wet alluvial land is on the neazly level lands of larger streams next to stream channels through <br />the County. This land type is wet most of the year, and flooded by streamflow once to <br />several times a year during periods of high water. The materials are extremely variable in <br />texture; they consist of stratified layers ofdark-colored silt, loam, and clay. The layers are less <br />than 6" thick and aze underlain by sand, fine sand, and some gravel at depths of 1 to 3'. They <br />are wet at depth of 2 feet most of the time and are commonly wet to the surface through the <br />growing season. Areas of this land type often have a vegetative cover of water tolerant <br />plants, such as cattails and sedges, and are not suitable for cultivation because of the hazard <br />from streams and a high water table. <br />3 <br />
