~. <br />,r° <br />%`~ Site Type: Rangeland <br />~' MLRA: 67B -Central High Plains, Southern Part <br />Representative Soil Features <br />The soils of this site are deep to very deep, excessive to well drained, a <br />permeable. These soils occur on hills and alluvial fans. Some soils hay <br />6 to 60 inches. The available water capacity is typically very low. The ; <br />to 10 inches thick. <br />Gravel Breaks <br />R067BY063C0 <br />rapidly to moderately <br />rock fragments at depths of <br />I surface layer is typically 2 <br />Exposed areas of gravel are inherent to this site. The amount of bare gr and varies with the amount <br />of surface gravel. Where slopes are gentle, water flow paths should be b oken, irregular in <br />appearance or discontinuous with numerous debris dams or vegetative b triers and exhibit slight to <br />no evidence of rills, wind scoured areas or pedestaled plants. <br />As slopes become steep, bare areas may increase. Expect to find evide ce of water flow patterns <br />and pedestaled plants. Sub-surface soil layers, where not affected by gr vel, are non-restrictive to <br />water movement and root penetration. <br />Major soil series correlated to this ecological site include: Eckley, Dix, <br />Peetz, Schamber <br />Other soil series that have been correlated to this site include: none <br />Parent Material Kind: alluvium <br />Parent Material Origin: mixed <br />Surface Texture: gravelly loamy sand, gravelly sandy loam, gravelly <br />Surface Texture Modifier: gravelly <br />Subsurface Texture Group: typically is sandy, but also includes loamy <br />Surface Fragments S 3" (% Cover): 0-20 <br />Surface Fragments > 3" (%Cover): 0-15 <br />Subsurface Fragments S 3" (% Volume): 0-80 <br />Subsurface Fragments > 3" (% Volume): 0-30 <br />Minimum <br />Drainage Class: somewhat excessive <br />Permeability Class: rapid <br />Depth (inches): 60 <br />Electrical Conductivity (mmhos/cm)*: 0 <br />Sodium Absorption Ratio*: 0 <br />Soil Reaction (1:1 Water)*: 6.0 <br />Available Water Capacity (inches)*: 2 <br />Calcium Carbonate Equivalent (percent)*: 0 <br />*These attributes represent 0-40 inches in depth or to the first restrictive <br />Technical Guide <br />Section IIE <br />Yoder, Cascajo, Orsa, <br />sandy <br />Maximum <br />well <br />moderate <br />80 <br />2 <br />0 <br />8.4 <br />3 <br />25 <br />USDA NRCS <br />Rev. 3/04 <br />
