This urn It is on flood pIains and depress Ions cof <br />stream terraces. Elevation Is 5#90C: to x,000 feet. The <br />mean annual precipitation is 11 tn;i:;: inches, the avera3e <br />air temperature Is 40 to 45 degrees F., and the frost free <br />per I od is 65 to 1355 days. <br />The Fluvaquents soil Is very deep and very poorly or <br />poorly drained. It formed In alluvium. The surface-layer <br />is dark grayish brown sandy loam, loam, or clay loam Z t915 <br />inches thick. The underlying material Is grLy stratified <br />sand, loamy sand, sandy loam, loam, clay I darn, or, c I ay. In <br />some places sand or extremely gravelly sand Is at a depth of <br />1G to 60 Inches. <br />Permeability of the FI uvaquents so I I Is moderate to <br />rapld. Available water capacity Is low to hi3h,. Effective <br />rcpt i ng depth Is 60 inches or more for water-tee I Brant, plants <br />and 1G to 20 Inches for plants sensitive to a hI3h water <br />table. Runoff is slow or porided, and the hazard of water <br />erosion Is slight. The hazard of soils blowing is slight. <br />A high water table Is at or near the surface during the <br />spring and early summer. In sorne areas the water table <br />remains above adepth of 1 foot throughout the year while in <br />other areas the water table Is at a depth of i to 3 feet <br />during late summer, fall, and winter. The hazard of <br />flooding is frequent. <br /> <br />.G
