Additional information about the Nation’s natural resources is available on the

Natural Resources Conservation Service homepage on the World Wide Web. The

address is http://www.nrcs.usda.gov.

This soil survey is a publication of the National Cooperative Soil Survey, a joint effort

of the United States Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State

agencies including the Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The

Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly the Soil Conservation Service) has

leadership for the Federal part of the National Cooperative Soil Survey.

Major fieldwork for this soil survey was completed in 1999. Soil names and

descriptions were approved in 1999. Unless otherwise indicated, statements in this

publication refer to conditions in the survey area in 1999. This survey was made

cooperatively by the Natural Resources Conservation Service; the Purdue University

Agricultural Experiment Station; and the Indiana Department of Natural Resources,

State Soil Conservation Board and Division of Soil Conservation. Financial assistance

was made available by the Board of County Commissioners of Fountain County. The

survey is part of the technical assistance furnished to the Fountain County Soil and

Water Conservation District.

Soil maps in this survey may be copied without permission. Enlargement of these

maps, however, could cause misunderstanding of the detail of mapping. If enlarged,

maps do not show the small areas of contrasting soils that could have been shown at a

larger scale.

This soil survey contains information that can be used in land-planning programs in

Fountain County. It contains predictions of soil behavior for selected land uses. The

survey also highlights limitations and hazards inherent in the soil, improvements

needed to overcome the limitations, and the impact of selected land uses on the

environment.

This soil survey is designed for many different users. Farmers, foresters, and

agronomists can use it to evaluate the potential of the soil and the management needed

for maximum food and fiber production. Planners, community officials, engineers,

developers, builders, and home buyers can use the survey to plan land use, select sites

for construction, and identify special practices needed to ensure proper performance.

Conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, wildlife

management, waste disposal, and pollution control can use the survey to help them

understand, protect, and enhance the environment.

Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are

seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are shallow to bedrock. Some are too

unstable to be used as a foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are

poorly suited to use as septic tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil

poorly suited to basements or underground installations.

These and many other soil properties that affect land use are described in this soil

survey. The location of each soil is shown on the detailed soil maps. Each soil in the

survey area is described. Information on specific uses is given for each soil. Help in

using this publication and additional information are available at the local office of the

Natural Resources Conservation Service or the Cooperative Extension Service.

FOUNTAIN COUNTY is in the west-central part of

Indiana (fig. 1). It has a total area of 254,777 acres, or

397 square miles. It is in Major Land Resource Area

111—Indiana and Ohio Till Plain. The county extends

about 29 miles from north to south and 18 miles from

east to west. Covington, the county seat, is at the

western boundary of the county, along the Wabash

River. In 1990, Covington had a population of 2,747

and the county had a population of 17,808 (USDC,

1990).

According to the Indiana Agricultural Statistics

Service, about 84 percent of Fountain County is

farmed (Gann and Liles, 1998-99).The primary farm

products are cash grain crops, hay, and livestock.

Corn and soybeans are the main cash grain crops.

Hogs, beef cattle, sheep, and poultry are the main

kinds of livestock. The county has a few dairy farms.

Some areas near local towns and along highways

have been developed as sites for dwellings and

businesses.

This soil survey updates and refines the survey of

Fountain County published in 1966 (USDA, 1966). It

provides larger maps, which show the soils in greater

detail. It also provides additional information about soil

interpretations.

General Nature of the County

This section gives general information about the

county. It describes climate; history and settlement;

and physiography, relief, and drainage.

Fountain County, Indiana

Climate

Table 1 gives data on temperature and precipitation

for the survey area as recorded at West Lafayette (in

nearby Tippecanoe County) in the period 1961 to

1990. Table 2 shows probable dates of the first freeze

in fall and the last freeze in spring. Table 3 provides

data on the length of the growing season.

In winter, the average temperature is 25.6 degrees

F and the average daily minimum temperature is 17.1

degrees. The lowest temperature on record, which

occurred at West Lafayette on January 20, 1985, was

minus 24 degrees. In summer, the average

temperature is 71.5 degrees and the average daily

maximum temperature is 82.4 degrees. The highest

temperature, which occurred at West Lafayette on July

14, 1936, was 111 degrees.

Growing degree days are shown in table 1. They

are equivalent to “heat units.” During the month,

growing degree days accumulate by the amount that

the average temperature each day exceeds a base

temperature (40 degrees F). The normal monthly

accumulation is used to schedule single or successive

plantings of a crop between the last freeze in spring

and the first freeze in fall.

The average annual total precipitation is 36.21

inches. Of this, about 18.4 inches, or 51 percent,

usually falls in May through September. The growing

season for most crops falls within this period. The

heaviest 1-day rainfall was 4.85 inches at West

Lafayette on July 18, 1939. Thunderstorms occur on
12 Soil Survey of

about 43 days each year, and most occur between

April and August.

The average seasonal snowfall is 22.3 inches. The

greatest snow depth at any one time was 21 inches on

December 19, 1929. On an average, 37 days per year

have at least 1 inch of snow on the ground. The

heaviest 1-day snowfall on record was 14.0 inches on

December 18, 1929.

The average relative humidity in mid-afternoon is

about 62 percent. Humidity is higher at night, and the

average at dawn is about 83 percent. The sun shines

67 percent of the time in summer and 43 percent in

winter. The prevailing wind is usually from the

southwest but is from the west-northwest from

January to March. Average windspeed is highest, 11

to 12 miles per hour, from February to April.

History and Settlement

Little is known about the earliest inhabitants of

present-day western Indiana. By the 1700s, much of

the Wabash River Valley, including the area now

known as Fountain County, was occupied by the

Miami, Piankashaw, and Wea Tribes. These were

independent tribes, but they shared the same basic

cultural and social characteristics.

On December 30, 1825, Fountain County was

declared a legal entity by an act of the Indiana

Legislature. It was organized with Covington as the

county seat in 1826, 10 years after Indiana was

admitted to the Union. Some say that the county was

named for the many freshwater springs in the county.

The more popular belief, however, is that the county

was named for Major James Fontaine of the Kentucky

volunteers, who died at the Battle of the Maumee,

near Fort Wayne. (See “Illustrated Historical Atlas of

the State of Indiana,” 1876.)

Great forests of oak and walnut along the Wabash

River and smaller streams encouraged settlers to

establish homesteads in Fountain County. Poplar was

used as finishing lumber. Settlers from Kentucky, the

Carolinas, Ohio, and Pennsylvania displaced the

native inhabitants. Gristmills were built along Shawnee

Creek and the east and north forks of Coal Creek. The

Wabash and Erie Canal, which followed the course of

the Wabash River, was completed in 1846 and

abandoned in 1872. In 1851, roads were cut through

the heavy forest, and a plank road from Covington to

Crawfordsville was completed.

After the land along the stream and creek bottoms

was taken, the fertile Shawnee and Scott prairies were

quickly settled. Flat areas, many of which were wet

and swampy, were later cleared. At first the wet areas

were drained by open ditches and wooden drains.

Later, clay and concrete tile lines were used for

drainage. Livestock and grain farming became

important after the land was cleared and drained.

Today, this kind of farming is the most important

enterprise in the county.

Physiography, Relief, and Drainage

Fountain County is in the Tipton Till Plain

physiographic unit of central Indiana. The streamdissected bedrock has been covered by glacial till and

outwash. Broad, level bottom lands and terraces are

along the Wabash River and its tributaries, and broad

glacial till and outwash plains are in the rest of the

county.

Slopes in Fountain County range from nearly level

on bottom lands, terraces, and upland flats to very

steep on breaks. Except in the immediate area of the

major streams, most of the county has not been

severely dissected by weathering and stream cutting.

The county gradually slopes southwest, and its

streams flow west and south. All of the county is within

the drainage basin of the Wabash River. Most of the

surface water in the county drains into the river

through two main tributaries and their branches. In the

northern part of the county, Shawnee Creek flows

west and empties into the river south of Attica. Coal

Creek, which drains a much larger area than Shawnee

Creek, heads in Montgomery County, enters the eastcentral part of Fountain County, and flows southwest.

It empties into the Wabash River directly south of the

county line.

Several other creeks that have small watersheds

empty into the Wabash River at various places. Bear

Creek, the most scenic, flows through the Portland

Arch area and empties into the river directly west of

the town of Fountain.

Glaciation is the principal factor that affected the

present landforms. The survey area was completely

covered by ice of the Wisconsinan glacial period. As

the ice receded, meltwaters flowed across the county

and formed terraces and outwash plains along the

Wabash River and its tributaries.

Portions of several morainic systems are evident in

the county.

A glacial sluiceway starts about 2 miles southeast

of Covington. It is approximately one-quarter of a mile

wide and 6 miles long. An underfit stream, Graham

Creek, is in this valley. It empties into Coal Creek east

of the town of Coal Creek. The sluiceway is believed

to have originated from an overflow of glacial

meltwater from the Wabash Valley directly south of

Covington.

The terrace material along the Wabash River was

brought in by glacial meltwater. As the glacial ice

receded, it released a tremendous volume of water.

This torrent carried an enormous amount of material

that ranged in size from large boulders to very fine

sand, silt, and clay. When the water lost its velocity, the

material was deposited in very thick stratified beds

along the stream channel.

Several outwash plains occur in the county. The

largest lies generally between State Route 28 and U.S.

Highway 136 on the eastern side of the county and

tapers to its outlet between Attica and Fountain on the

west. Prairie grasses covered the northern portion of

this landform, while trees were dominant to the south.

This plain is interrupted only by two moraines that

extend into it. The glacial meltwater that formed this

plain spilled over into the glacial Wabash River in

several places. A broad, shallow outlet occurred

between the town of Aylesworth and the Portland Arch

on the south and Attica on the north. As the level of

meltwater lowered, this outlet became clogged with its

own sediments and the remaining water flowed

through the Shawnee and upper Coal Creek drainage

system, as it does today.

Fountain County is completely covered by a mantle

of loess that ranges from a few inches to more than 7

feet in thickness and is underlain by landforms that

existed when the loess was deposited. In about half of

the county, the mantle is 18 to 42 inches thick. The

loess is believed to have been blown from the valleys

of the Missouri, Mississippi, and Wabash Rivers. The

heavier grained materials were deposited closest to

their source, and the finer grains were blown a greater

distance.

The underlying bedrock in the eastern third of the

county is Mississippian in age. The Wabash Valley and

valleys of small streams from Riverside to the

northeastern border of the county have some

sandstone but are dominated by siltstone and shale.

These areas are characterized by Adeland soils on the

flats and Cates soils on steep breaks. Mississippian

sandstone with some shale is exposed along the

valley of the Wabash River from Riverside south

towards the Portland Arch. These rocks are exposed

along the Wabash River and Big and Little Shawnee

Creeks in the northern part of the county and in

scattered outcrops in the eastern part. These areas

are characterized by Judyville soils on steep breaks

(fig. 2) and Mitiwanga soils on flats. In the western twothirds of the county, the underlying bedrock is Early

and Middle Pennsylvanian-age deposits mainly of

sandstone and shale. These rocks are exposed in

bluffs along the Wabash River and along streams

flowing into the Wabash River.

The greatest relief in the county is along the

Wabash River and its tributaries, along the breaks

between the uplands and the terraces and flood plains.

The highest elevation, about 770 feet above sea level,

is in the northeastern part of the county. The lowest

elevation, about 465 feet above sea level, is at the

point where the Wabash River leaves the county, at

the southwestern edge.

The Wabash River borders the county on the north

and west and is bordered by valleys ranging from

about 1 to 5 miles in width. The valleys associated with

the major tributaries of the Wabash River range from

about 100 feet to about one-half mile in width. The

bottom land along the Wabash River and the areas

near the mouth of its major tributaries are commonly

flooded several times in late winter and early spring.

How This Survey Was Made

This survey was made to provide information about

the soils and miscellaneous areas in the survey area.

The information includes a description of the soils and
14 Soil Survey of

miscellaneous areas and their location and a

discussion of their suitability, limitations, and

management for specified uses. Soil scientists

observed the steepness, length, and shape of the

slopes; the general pattern of drainage; the kinds of

crops and native plants; and the kinds of bedrock.

They dug many holes to study the soil profile, which is

the sequence of natural layers, or horizons, in a soil.

The profile extends from the surface down into the

unconsolidated material in which the soil formed. The

unconsolidated material is devoid of roots and other

living organisms and has not been changed by other

biological activity.

The soils and miscellaneous areas in the survey

area are in an orderly pattern that is related to the

geology, landforms, relief, climate, and natural

vegetation of the area. Each kind of soil and

miscellaneous area is associated with a particular kind

of landform or with a segment of the landform. By

observing the soils and miscellaneous areas in the

survey area and relating their position to specific

segments of the landform, a soil scientist develops a

concept or model of how they were formed. Thus,

during mapping, this model enables the soil scientist

to predict with a considerable degree of accuracy the

kind of soil or miscellaneous area at a specific location

on the landscape.

Commonly, individual soils on the landscape merge

into one another as their characteristics gradually

change. To construct an accurate soil map, however,

soil scientists must determine the boundaries between

the soils. They can observe only a limited number of

soil profiles. Nevertheless, these observations,

supplemented by an understanding of the soilvegetation-landscape relationship, are sufficient to

verify predictions of the kinds of soil in an area and to

determine the boundaries.

Soil scientists recorded the characteristics of the

soil profiles that they studied. They noted soil color,

texture, size and shape of soil aggregates, kind and

amount of rock fragments, distribution of plant roots,

reaction, and other features that enable them to

identify soils. After describing the soils in the survey

area and determining their properties, the soil

scientists assigned the soils to taxonomic classes

(units). Taxonomic classes are concepts. Each

taxonomic class has a set of soil characteristics with

precisely defined limits. The classes are used as a

basis for comparison to classify soils systematically.

Soil taxonomy, the system of taxonomic classification

used in the United States, is based mainly on the kind

and character of soil properties and the arrangement

of horizons within the profile. After the soil scientists

classified and named the soils in the survey area, they

compared the individual soils with similar soils in the

same taxonomic class in other areas so that they

could confirm data and assemble additional data

based on experience and research.

While a soil survey is in progress, samples of some

of the soils in the area generally are collected for

laboratory analyses and for engineering tests. Soil

scientists interpret the data from these analyses and

tests as well as the field-observed characteristics and

the soil properties to determine the expected behavior

of the soils under different uses. Interpretations for all

of the soils are field tested through observation of the

soils in different uses and under different levels of

management. Some interpretations are modified to fit

local conditions, and some new interpretations are

developed to meet local needs. Data are assembled

from other sources, such as research information,

production records, and field experience of specialists.

For example, data on crop yields under defined levels

of management are assembled from farm records and

from field or plot experiments on the same kinds of soil.

Predictions about soil behavior are based not only

on soil properties but also on such variables as

climate and biological activity. Soil conditions are

predictable over long periods of time, but they are not

predictable from year to year. For example, soil

scientists can predict with a fairly high degree of

accuracy that a given soil will have a high water table

within certain depths in most years, but they cannot

predict that a high water table will always be at a

specific level in the soil on a specific date.

After soil scientists located and identified the

significant natural bodies of soil in the survey area,

they drew the boundaries of these bodies on aerial

photographs and identified each as a specific map

unit. Aerial photographs show trees, buildings, fields,

roads, and rivers, all of which help in locating

boundaries accurately.

17

The map units delineated on the detailed maps in

this survey represent the soils or miscellaneous areas

in the survey area. The map unit descriptions in this

section, along with the maps, can be used to

determine the suitability and potential of a unit for

specific uses. They also can be used to plan the

management needed for those uses.

A map unit delineation on the detailed soil maps

represents an area on the landscape and consists of

one or more soils or miscellaneous areas. A map unit

is identified and named according to the taxonomic

classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic

class there are precisely defined limits for the

properties of the soils. On the landscape, however, the

soils are natural phenomena, and they have the

characteristic variability of all natural phenomena.

Thus, the range of some observed properties may

extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class.

Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if

ever, can be mapped without including areas of other

taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is

made up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which

it is named and some “included” areas that belong to

other taxonomic classes.

Most included soils have properties similar to those

of the dominant soil or soils in the map unit, and thus

they do not affect use and management. These are

called noncontrasting, or similar soils. They may or

may not be mentioned in a particular map unit

description. Other included soils and miscellaneous

areas, however, have properties and behavioral

characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to

require different management. These are called

contrasting, or dissimilar soils. They generally are in

small areas and could not be mapped separately

because of the scale used. Some small areas of

strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas are

identified by a special symbol on the maps. The

contrasting inclusions are mentioned in the map unit

descriptions. A few included areas may not have been

observed, and consequently they are not mentioned in

the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so

complex that it was impractical to make enough

observations to identify all the soils and miscellaneous

areas on the landscape.

The presence of included areas in a map unit in no

way diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data.

The objective of mapping is not to delineate pure

taxonomic classes but rather to separate the

landscape into segments that have similar use and

management requirements. The delineation of such

landscape segments on the map provides sufficient

information for the development of resource plans. If

intensive use of small areas is planned, however,

onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the

soils and miscellaneous areas.

An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name

in the map unit descriptions. Each description includes

general facts about the unit.

Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make

up a soil series. Except for differences in texture of the

surface layer or of the underlying layers, all the soils of

a series have major horizons that are similar in

composition, thickness, and arrangement.

Soils of one series can differ in texture of the

surface layer or of the underlying layers. They also can

differ in slope, stoniness, frequency of flooding, degree

of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their

use. On the basis of such differences, a soil series is

divided into soil phases. Most of the areas shown on

the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The

name of a soil phase commonly indicates a feature

that affects use or management. For example,

Angatoka silt loam, outwash substratum, 0 to 2

percent slopes, is a phase of the Angatoka series.

Some map units are made up of two or more major

soils or miscellaneous areas. These map units are

called complexes or undifferentiated groups.

A complex consists of two or more soils or

miscellaneous areas in such an intricate pattern or in

such small areas that they cannot be shown

separately on the maps. The pattern and proportion of

the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar

in all areas. Miami-Rainsville complex, 2 to 6 percent

slopes, eroded, is an example.

An undifferentiated group is made up of two or

more soils or miscellaneous areas that could be

mapped individually but are mapped as one unit

because similar interpretations can be made for use

and management. The pattern and proportion of the

Detailed Soil Map Units
18 Soil Survey of

soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not

uniform. An area can be made up of only one of the

major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made

up of all of them. Sloan and Beaucoup soils, 0 to 1

percent slopes, frequently flooded, long duration, is an

undifferentiated group in this survey area.

This survey includes miscellaneous areas. Such

areas have little or no soil material and support little or

no vegetation. Pits, gravel, is an example.

Table 4 gives the acreage and proportionate extent

of each map unit. Other tables give properties of the

soils and the limitations, capabilities, and potentials for

many uses. The Glossary defines many of the terms

used in describing the soils or miscellaneous areas.

The names, descriptions, and delineations of the

soils on the detailed soil maps in this survey may not

fully agree with those on the maps of adjoining

surveys that were completed at an earlier date.

Differences are the result of changes in series

concepts or variations in the intensity of mapping or in

the extent of the soils in the survey areas.

This soil survey is an inventory and evaluation of

the soils in the survey area. It can be used to adjust

land uses to the limitations and potentials of natural

resources and the environment. Also, it can help to

prevent soil-related failures in land uses.

In preparing a soil survey, soil scientists,

conservationists, engineers, and others collect

extensive field data about the nature and behavioral

characteristics of the soils. They collect data on

erosion, droughtiness, flooding, and other factors that

affect various soil uses and management. Field

experience and collected data on soil properties and

performance are used as a basis in predicting soil

behavior.

Information in this section can be used to plan the

use and management of soils for crops and pasture;

as forestland; as sites for buildings, sanitary facilities,

highways and other transportation systems, and parks

and other recreational facilities; for agricultural waste

management; and as wildlife habitat. It can be used to

identify the potentials and limitations of each soil for

specific land uses and to help prevent construction

failures caused by unfavorable soil properties.

Planners and others using soil survey information

can evaluate the effect of specific land uses on

productivity and on the environment in all or part of the

survey area. The survey can help planners to maintain

or create a land use pattern in harmony with the

natural soil.

Contractors can use this survey to locate sources

of sand and gravel, roadfill, and topsoil. They can use

it to identify areas where bedrock, wetness, or very

firm soil layers can cause difficulty in excavation.

Health officials, highway officials, engineers, and

others may also find this survey useful. The survey

can help them plan the safe disposal of wastes and

locate sites for pavements, sidewalks, campgrounds,

playgrounds, lawns, and trees and shrubs.

Interpretive Ratings

The interpretive tables in this survey rate the soils in

the survey area for various uses. Many of the tables

identify the limitations that affect specified uses and

indicate the severity of those limitations. The ratings in

these tables are both verbal and numerical.

Rating Class Terms

Rating classes are expressed in the tables in terms

that indicate the extent to which the soils are limited by

all of the soil features that affect a specified use or in

terms that indicate the suitability of the soils for the

use. Thus, the tables may show limitation classes or

suitability classes. Terms for the limitation classes are

not limited, somewhat limited, and very limited. The

suitability ratings are expressed as well suited,

moderately well suited, poorly suited, and unsuited or

as good, fair, and poor.

Numerical Ratings

Numerical ratings in the tables indicate the relative

severity of individual limitations. The ratings are shown

as decimal fractions ranging from 0.00 to 1.00. They

indicate gradations between the point at which a soil

feature has the greatest negative impact on the use

and the point at which the soil feature is not a

limitation. The limitations appear in order from the

most limiting to the least limiting. Thus, if more than

one limitation is identified, the most severe limitation is

listed first and the least severe one is listed last.

Agronomy

General management needed for crops and pasture

is suggested in this section. The crops or pasture

plants best suited to the soils, including some not

commonly grown in the survey area, are identified; the

system of land capability classification used by the

Natural Resources Conservation Service is explained;

the estimated yields of the main crops and hay and

pasture plants are listed for each soil; and prime

farmland is described. Specific information can be

obtained from the local office of the Natural Resources

Conservation Service or the Cooperative Extension

Service.

A total of 195,701 acres in Fountain County (about

77 percent of the total land acreage) was used as

cropland in 1997 (Gann and Liles, 1998-1999). Of this

Use and Management of the Soils
64 Soil Survey of

acreage, about 177,202 acres, or 70 percent of the

total land acreage, was used for row crops, mainly

corn, soybeans, and wheat. About 18,499, or 7

percent of the total land acreage, was used for hay

and pasture.

The soils and climate of the survey area are well

suited to most of the crops that are commonly grown

in the county and to some specialty crops. The

potential of the soils for increased crop production is

good. Food production can be increased by extending

the latest crop production technology to all of the

cropland in the county. This soil survey can help to

facilitate the application of such technology.

The paragraphs that follow describe the main

management concerns affecting the use of the soils in

the county for crops and pasture. These concerns are

wetness, water erosion, tilth, and fertility.

Wetness is the major management concern on

about 55 percent of the land in the county. On most of

the naturally wet, poorly drained or very poorly drained

Adrian, Beaucoup, Chalmers, Drummer, Mahalaland,

Mahalasville, Pella, Ragsdale (fig. 6), Rensselaer,

Rockmill, Sloan, Southwest, Treaty, and Westland

soils, production of the crops commonly grown in the

county is generally not practical in many years unless

a drainage system is installed. Also, in undrained

areas of the somewhat poorly drained Adeland,

Ayrshire, Brenton, Brouillett, Crane, Crosby, Fincastle,

Lafayette, Mitiwanga, Raub, Shoals, Sleeth, Starks,

Toronto, Waynetown, Whitaker, and Yeddo soils,

wetness significantly damages crops in many years.

Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and

local governments may impose special restrictions on

the use of soils. An example is the protection of

wetlands. Statements made in this section about

wetness are intended to help the land user reduce the

effects of wetness. The landowner or user has the

responsibility of identifying and complying with existing

laws and regulations.

The design of both surface and subsurface

drainage systems varies with the kind of soil. A

combination of surface and subsurface drains is

needed on some soils that are row cropped.

Subsurface drains should be more closely spaced in

slowly permeable or very slowly permeable soils than

in more permeable soils. Filtering material is generally

needed in subsurface drains in soils that have

minimum grades and a high content of silt. Finding

adequate outlets for subsurface drainage systems is

difficult in some areas.

Further information about the design of drainage

systems for each kind of soil is in the Field Office

Figure 6.—Ponding in an area of Ragsdale silty clay loam, 0 to 1 percent slopes.

Technical Guide, which is available in local offices of

the Natural Resources Conservation Service.

Water erosion is a hazard on about 25 percent of

the land in the county. Generally, it is a hazard in areas

where the slope is more than about 2 percent.

Loss of the surface layer through erosion is

damaging for two main reasons. First, productivity is

reduced as fertilizer, pesticides, herbicides, and

organic matter are removed from the surface layer.

The natural tilth of some soils, such as Miami and

Octagon soils, is reduced as the more clayey subsoil

is incorporated into the surface layer. Seedbed

preparation becomes more difficult, and seed

germination is hindered. Loss of the surface layer is

especially damaging to soils that are shallow or

moderately deep to coarse textured material, dense

glacial till, or bedrock. The root zone in these soils

consists largely of the part of the profile above these

limiting layers. As the surface layer is lost, the

thickness of the root zone and the available water

capacity are reduced. Ockley and Silverwood soils are

deep to coarse textured material, and Rodman soils

are shallow to coarse textured material. Crosby and

Miami soils have dense glacial till within 40 inches of

the surface. Adeland, Cates, Judyville, Loudonville,

and Mitiwanga soils have bedrock within 40 inches of

the surface.

Second, erosion results in the sedimentation and

pollution of ditches, lakes, and streams. Controlling

erosion minimizes sedimentation and pollution and

improves water quality for fish and wildlife, for

municipal use, and for recreational uses.

Planting cover crops may help to control erosion on

the more sloping soils. Cover crops are especially

important after soybeans or corn for silage is grown.

Tillage methods that leave crop residue on 50 or more

percent of the surface can protect most of the sloping

soils from excessive erosion during winter and early

spring.

A conservation tillage system helps to hold soil

losses to acceptable levels on most of the sloping

soils. If row crops are grown year after year on these

soils, soil losses generally are high unless a

conservation tillage system is applied.

No-till and strip-plant cropping systems are effective

in minimizing soil loss on soils used for corn or

soybeans (fig. 7). These conservation tillage systems

can be adapted to many of the soils in the county that

are susceptible to erosion. When no-till and strip-till

systems are used in areas that have a thick vegetative

cover or protective amounts of crop residue on the

surface, soil moisture evaporates at a slower rate and

the weed population is greatly reduced. Angatoka,

Coloma, Elston, Kendallville, Loudonville, Miami,

Ockley, Octagon, Princeton, Rainsville, and Russell

soils are examples of sloping soils that are suitable for

no-till and strip-till systems.

Contour farming is effective in controlling erosion in

a few areas of the county. In areas where slopes are

short and irregular, managing this practice may be

difficult. Other types of conservation measures may be

more suitable.

Riparian buffer strips are useful in limiting the

amount of sediment and pollutants that enter

streams.

Water- and sediment-control basins are effective in

reducing the rate of runoff in drainageways. They are

most effective where subsurface tile can be installed

as outlets and on soils that have slopes of about 8

percent or less. Rush, Russell, and Xenia soils are

examples.

Grassed waterways are needed to protect the

channels that drain a watershed (fig. 8). Subsurface

Figure 7.—No-till corn in an area of Rush silt loam, 0 to 2

percent slopes.
66 Soil Survey of

drains are needed in areas where wetness or seepage

is a problem in the waterways.

Grade-stabilization structures are needed in many

areas of the county where water in one drainageway

falls into a more sloping drainageway. These

structures stabilize the drainageways and minimize

gully erosion.

Information about the type and design of erosioncontrol practices that are best suited to each kind of

soil in the county is available at the local office of the

Natural Resources Conservation Service.

Soil tilth is an important factor affecting the

germination of seeds and the infiltration of water into

the soil. Soils that have good tilth are granular and

porous. Many of the soils used for row crops in the

county have a surface layer of silt loam that has a

moderate to low content of organic matter. Where

there is little or no crop residue, a hard surface crust

forms after periods of intensive rainfall. The hard crust

reduces the infiltration rate, increases the runoff rate,

and inhibits plant emergence. Regular additions of

crop residue, cover crops, manure, and other organic

material improve soil structure and help to minimize

crusting.

Beaucoup, Chalmers, Drummer, Mahalaland,

Mahalasville, Pella, Ragsdale, Rensselaer, Sloan,

Treaty, and Westland soils have a moderately fine

textured surface layer. Tilth is a problem in areas of

these soils. If tilled when too wet, the surface layer

becomes very cloddy when dry and cannot be easily

worked. As a result, preparing a good seedbed is very

difficult. Spring tillage, if needed on these soils,

generally results in better tilth.

Many of the soils in the county have a silty or loamy

surface layer that is easily compacted. Tilling or

grazing when the soils are wet causes surface

compaction, which restricts penetration by tillage

equipment and plant roots and limits plant growth.

Soil fertility is affected mainly by reaction and by the

content of plant nutrients and organic matter.

On soils that have a pH level below about 6.4,

applications of ground limestone are needed to raise

the pH level sufficiently for the best utilization of plant

nutrients by cultivated crops, such as corn and

Figure 8.—Grassed waterway in an area of Miami-Rainsville complex, 2 to 6 percent slopes, eroded.
Fountain County, Indiana 67

soybeans, and thus for optimum yields. On soils that

have a pH below about 6.4, ground limestone is

needed for hay and pasture plants, such as alfalfa and

red clover. The supply of available phosphorus and

potassium is generally below the level needed for

good plant growth in most of the soils in areas where

fertilizer has been applied. On all soils, additions of

lime and fertilizer should be based on the results of

soil tests, the needs of the crop, and the desired level

of yields. The Cooperative Extension Service can help

in determining the kinds and amounts of fertilizer and

lime to be applied.

The pasture plants commonly grown in the county

are mixtures of tall fescue, orchardgrass, bromegrass,

timothy, alfalfa, and red clover. Other pasture plants

are bluegrass, ladino clover, redtop, alsike clover,

lespedeza, and sweetclover. Most of the soils in the

county are well suited to grasses, such as tall fescue,

timothy, and orchardgrass, and to legumes, such as

red clover, ladino clover, alfalfa, and lespedeza.

Legumes grow poorly, however, in soils that are poorly

drained or very poorly drained, such as Drummer,

Ragsdale, and Rockmill soils.

Growing legumes, cool-season grasses, and-warm

season grasses that are suited to the soils and the

climate of the county helps to maintain a productive

stand of pasture plants (fig. 9).

The field crops suited to the soils and climate in the

county include those that are currently grown and

some that are not commonly grown. Corn, soybeans,

and wheat are the principal cultivated crops. Other

cultivated crops are oats and rye. The latest

information about growing cultivated crops, hay and

pasture plants, and specialty crops can be obtained

from local offices of the Cooperative Extension

Service or the Natural Resources Conservation

Service.

Limitations and Hazards on Cropland and Pasture

The management concerns affecting the use of the

soils in the county for crops and pasture are shown in

table 5. The main concerns in managing cropland and

Figure 9.—Pasture in an area of Chalmers silty clay loam, 0 to 1 percent slopes.
68 Soil Survey of

pasture are controlling water erosion, wind erosion,

and soil wetness and ponding; minimizing surface

crusting; improving poor tilth; operating equipment

safely on steep slopes; and limiting the effects of

excessive and restricted permeability and of a limited

available water capacity. Also, most of the soils

suitable for legumes have a high potential for frost

action. The local office of the Natural Resources

Conservation Service or the Cooperative Extension

Service can provide information about the legumes

that can be damaged by frost heave. This hazard is

not listed in table 5 because it applies to the majority

of the soils.

Both water erosion and wind erosion reduce the

productivity of cropland and pasture. They also result

in onsite and offsite sedimentation, cause water

pollution by sedimentation, and increase the runoff of

livestock manure and other added nutrients. Generally,

a combination of several practices is needed to control

both water erosion and wind erosion. Conservation

tillage, stripcropping, contour farming, conservation

cropping systems, crop residue management,

diversions, and grassed waterways help to minimize

soil loss. In areas of pasture, measures that are

effective in controlling water erosion include

establishing or renovating stands of legumes and

grasses. Controlling erosion during seedbed

preparation is a major concern. If the soil is tilled for

the reseeding of pasture or hay crops, planting winter

cover crops, establishing grassed waterways, farming

on the contour, and applying a system of conservation

tillage that leaves a protective cover crop residue on

the surface can help to minimize erosion.

In some areas of the county, wetness is a limitation

and ponding is a hazard. Drainage systems consist of

subsurface tile drains, surface inlet tile, open drainage

ditches, or a combination of these. Measures that

maintain the drainage system are needed.

In pastured areas overgrazing or grazing when the

soil is wet reduces the extent of the plant cover, results

in surface compaction and poor tilth, and increases

the susceptibility to erosion. Proper stocking rates,

rotation grazing, and timely deferment of grazing,

especially during wet periods, help to keep the pasture

in good condition. Properly locating livestock watering

facilities helps to prevent surface compaction and the

formation of ruts by making it unnecessary for cattle to

travel long distances up and down steep slopes.

Practices that reduce surface crusting and improve

poor tilth include incorporating green manure crops,

manure, or crop residue into the soil and applying a

system of conservation tillage. Surface cloddiness can

be minimized by avoiding tillage when the soil is too

wet.

Available water capacity refers to the capacity of

soils to hold water available for use by most plants.

Measures that conserve moisture are needed where

the soils have a low or moderate available water

capacity. These measures primarily involve reducing

the evaporation and runoff rates and increasing the

rate of water intake. Applying conservation tillage and

conservation cropping systems, farming on the

contour, stripcropping, establishing field windbreaks,

and leaving crop residue on the surface conserve

moisture. The quality and quantity of pasture plants

may be reduced on soils that have low or moderate

available water capacity. The amount of soil moisture

may be inadequate for the maintenance of a healthy

community of desired pasture species and thus the

desired number of livestock. A poor-quality pasture

increases the hazard of erosion and the runoff of

pollutants. Planting drought-resistant species of

grasses and legumes helps to establish a protective

plant cover. Irrigation can be used to overcome a low

available water capacity.

Both a low pH and a high pH inhibit the uptake of

certain nutrients by plants or accelerates the

absorption of certain other elements to the level of

toxic concentrations. Either of these conditions affects

the health and vigor of the plants. For a low pH,

applications of lime should be based on the results of

soil tests. The goal is to achieve the optimum pH level

for the uptake of the major nutrients by the specific

grass, legume, or combination of grasses and

legumes. The surface layer of most of the soils in the

county naturally has a low pH, except for some soils

on flood plains. For of the most soils, the pH should be

raised to a level that results in the best crop response.

Soils with a high pH may require treatment to lower

the pH so that certain elements are adequately

available for crop growth.

Equipment limitations occur in areas where slopes

are 15 percent or more. The operation of farm

equipment may be restricted and hazardous in these

areas. Cates, Judyville, Kendallville, Minnehaha,

Rodman, and Strawn soils and strongly sloping areas

of Ockley, Russell, and Silverwood soils have

equipment limitations because of the slope. Soils with

more than 15 percent rock fragments in the surface

layer and soils with cobbles or stones on the surface

also have equipment limitations. The rock fragments

can limit the type of equipment that can be used or

can damage the equipment during reseeding and

planting operations. Loudonville silt loam, 4 to 12

percent slopes, stony, has equipment limitations

because of stones on the surface. Fairpoint and

Pinevillage soils have equipment limitations because

of a gravelly surface layer.
Fountain County, Indiana 69

Soils with bedrock, strongly contrasting textural

stratification, or dense glacial till within a depth of 40

inches have a limited rooting depth.

Some of the limitations and hazards shown in table

5 cannot be easily overcome. These are flooding,

depth to bedrock, restricted permeability, and

subsidence. Winter-grown small grain crops are likely

to be damaged after a flood. Water-tolerant species

should be grown in areas that are frequently flooded

during the growing season.

Following is an explanation of the criteria used to

determine the limitations or hazards.

Water erosion.—The value of K factor of the surface

layer multiplied by the slope is more than 0.8, and the

slope 3 percent or more.

Wind erosion.—The wind erodibility group is 1 or 2

for soils on flood plains or 3 for soils in other areas.

Wetness.—The soil has a water table within a depth

of 1.5 feet during the growing season.

Ponding.—The soil is subject to ponding during the

growing season.

Crusting.—The content of organic matter in the

surface layer is 2 percent or less, the percent passing

the number 200 sieve is more than 50 percent, and

the content of clay is less than 32 percent.

Poor tilth.—The soil typically has 32 percent or

more clay in the surface layer.

Low available water capacity.—The weighted

average of the available water capacity is less than

0.10 inch of water per inch of soil within a depth of 60

inches.

Moderate available water capacity.—The weighted

average of the available water capacity is between

0.11 and 0.15 inch of water per inch of soil within a

depth of 60 inches.

Low pH.—The typical pH value is equal to or less

than 6.0 in the surface layer.

High pH.—The typical pH value is equal to or higher

than 7.4 in the surface layer.

Equipment limitation.—The soil has a slope of 15

percent or more, has cobbles or stones on the surface,

or has more than 15 percent rock fragments in the

surface layer.

Limited rooting depth.—Bedrock, strongly

contrasting textural stratification, or dense glacial till,

which has an average bulk density of 1.75 grams per

cubic centimeter or more, is within a depth of 40

inches.

Flooding.—The soil is occasionally or frequently

flooded during the growing season.

Restricted permeability.—Permeability is less than

0.2 inch per hour in one or more layers within a depth

of 40 inches.

Estimated Yields per Acre

The average yields per acre that can be expected

of the principal crops under a high level of

management are shown in table 6. In any given year,

yields may be higher or lower than those indicated in

the table because of variations in rainfall and other

climatic factors. The land capability classification of

each map unit also is shown in the table.

The yields are based mainly on the experience and

records of farmers, conservationists, and extension

agents. Available yield data from nearby counties and

results of field trials and demonstrations are also

considered.

The management needed to obtain the indicated

yields of the various crops depends on the kind of soil

and the crop. Management can include drainage,

erosion control, protection from flooding; the proper

planting and seeding rates; suitable high-yielding crop

varieties; appropriate and timely tillage; control of

weeds, plant diseases and harmful insects; favorable

soil reaction and optimum levels of nitrogen,

phosphorus, potassium, and trace elements for each

crop; effective use of crop residue, barnyard manure,

and green manure crops; and harvesting that ensures

the smallest possible loss.

The estimated yields reflect the productive capacity

of each soil for each of the principal crops. Yields are

likely to increase as new production technology is

developed. The relative productivity of a given soil

compared with that of other soils, however, is not likely

to change.

Crops other than those shown in the table are

grown in the survey area, but estimated yields are not

listed because the acreage of such crops is small. The

local office of the Natural Resources Conservation

Service or of the Cooperative Extension Service can

provide information about the management and

productivity of the soils for those crops.

Pasture and Hayland Interpretations

Under good management, proper grazing is

essential for the production of high-quality forage,

stand survival, and erosion control. Proper grazing

helps plants to maintain sufficient and generally

vigorous top growth during the growing season

(fig. 10). Brush control is essential in many areas,

and weed control generally is needed. Rotation

grazing and renovation are important management

practices.

Pasture yield estimates are commonly given in

animal unit months (AUM), or the amount of forage or

feed required to feed one animal unit (one cow, one
70 Soil Survey of

horse, one mule, five sheep, or five goats) for 30 days.

The local office of the Natural Resources

Conservation Service or of the Cooperative Extension

Service can provide information about forage yields

other than those shown in table 6.

Land Capability Classification

Land capability classification shows, in a general

way, the suitability of soils for most kinds of field crops.

Crops that require special management are excluded.

The soils are grouped according to their limitations for

field crops, the risk of damage if they are used for

crops, and the way they respond to management. The

criteria used in grouping the soils do not take into

account major and generally expensive landforming

that would change slope, depth, or other

characteristics of the soils, nor do they include

possible but unlikely major reclamation projects.

Capability classification is not a substitute for

interpretations designed to show suitability and

limitations of groups of soils for rangeland, for

forestland, and for engineering purposes.

In the capability system, soils generally are grouped

at three levels—capability class, subclass, and unit

(USDA, 1961). Only class and subclass are used in

this survey.

Capability classes, the broadest groups, are

designated by numerals 1 through 8. The numerals

indicate progressively greater limitations and narrower

choices for practical use. The classes are defined as

follows:

Class 1 soils have slight limitations that restrict their

use.

Class 2 soils have moderate limitations that restrict

the choice of plants or that require moderate

conservation practices.

Class 3 soils have severe limitations that restrict the

choice of plants or that require special conservation

practices, or both.

Class 4 soils have very severe limitations that

restrict the choice of plants or that require very careful

management, or both.

Class 5 soils are subject to little or no erosion but

have other limitations, impractical to remove, that

Figure 10.—Pasture in an area of Waupecan silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes.
Fountain County, Indiana 71

restrict their use mainly to pasture, rangeland,

forestland, or wildlife habitat.

Class 6 soils have severe limitations that make

them generally unsuitable for cultivation and that

restrict their use mainly to pasture, rangeland,

forestland, or wildlife habitat.

Class 7 soils have very severe limitations that make

them unsuitable for cultivation and that restrict their

use mainly to grazing, forestland, or wildlife habitat.

Class 8 soils and miscellaneous areas have

limitations that preclude commercial plant production

and that restrict their use to recreational purposes,

wildlife habitat, watershed, or esthetic purposes.

Capability subclasses are soil groups within one

class. They are designated by adding a small letter, e,

w, s, or c, to the class numeral, for example, 2e. The

letter e shows that the main hazard is the risk of

erosion unless close-growing plant cover is

maintained; w shows that water in or on the soil

interferes with plant growth or cultivation (in some soils

the wetness can be partly corrected by artificial

drainage); s shows that the soil is limited mainly

because it is shallow, droughty, or stony; and c, used

in only some parts of the United States, shows that the

chief limitation is climate that is very cold or very dry.

In class 1 there are no subclasses because the

soils of this class have few limitations. Class 5

contains only the subclasses indicated by w, s, or c

because the soils in class 5 are subject to little or no

erosion. They have other limitations that restrict their

use mainly to pasture, rangeland, woodland, wildlife

habitat, or recreation.

The capability classification of the map units in the

county is given in table 6.

Prime Farmland

Prime farmland is one of several kinds of important

farmland defined by the U.S. Department of

Agriculture. It is of major importance in meeting the

Nation’s short- and long-range needs for food and

fiber. Because the supply of high-quality farmland is

limited, the U.S. Department of Agriculture recognizes

that responsible levels of government, as well as

individuals, should encourage and facilitate the wise

use of our Nation’s prime farmland.

Prime farmland, as defined by the U.S. Department

of Agriculture, is land that has the best combination of

physical and chemical characteristics for producing

food, feed, forage, fiber, and oilseed crops and is

available for these uses. It could be cultivated land,

pastureland, forestland, or other land, but it is not

urban or built-up land or water areas. The soil qualities,

growing season, and moisture supply are those

needed for the soil to economically produce sustained

high yields of crops when proper management,

including water management, and acceptable farming

methods are applied. In general, prime farmland has

an adequate and dependable supply of moisture from

precipitation or irrigation, a favorable temperature and

growing season, acceptable acidity or alkalinity, an

acceptable salt and sodium content, and few or no

rocks. It is permeable to water and air. It is not

excessively erodible or saturated with water for long

periods, and it either is not frequently flooded during

the growing season or is protected from flooding.

Slope ranges mainly from 0 to 6 percent. More

detailed information about the criteria for prime

farmland is available at the local office of the Natural

Resources Conservation Service.

A recent trend in land use has been the conversion

of prime farmland to urban and industrial uses. The

loss of prime farmland to other uses puts pressure on

marginal lands, which generally are more erodible,

droughty, and less productive and cannot be easily

cultivated.

About 215,960 acres in the county, or nearly 85

percent of the total acreage, meets the criteria for

prime farmland. Areas of this land are throughout the

county.

The map units in the survey area that meet the

criteria for prime farmland are listed in table 7. This list

does not constitute a recommendation for a particular

land use. On some soils included in the table,

measures that overcome a hazard or limitation, such

as flooding, wetness, and droughtiness, are needed.

Onsite evaluation is needed to determine whether or

not the hazard or limitation has been overcome by

corrective measures. The extent of each listed map

unit is shown in table 4. The location of each map unit

is shown on the detailed soil maps. The soil qualities

that affect use and management are described in

individual sections of this publication.

Windbreaks and Environmental Plantings

Windbreaks protect livestock, buildings, and yards

from wind and snow. They also protect fruit trees and

gardens, and they furnish habitat for wildlife. Several

rows of low- and high-growing broadleaf and

coniferous trees and shrubs provide the most

protection.

Field windbreaks are narrow plantings made at right

angles to the prevailing wind and at specific intervals

across the field. The interval depends on the erodibility

of the soil. Field windbreaks protect cropland and

crops from wind, help to keep snow on the fields, and

provide food and cover for wildlife.

Environmental plantings help to beautify and screen

houses and other buildings and to abate noise. The
72 Soil Survey of

plants, mostly evergreen shrubs and trees, are closely

spaced. To ensure plant survival, a healthy planting

stock of suitable species should be planted properly

on a well prepared site and maintained in good

condition.

Windbreaks are often planted on land that did not

originally support trees. Knowledge of how trees

perform on such land can be gained only by observing

and recording the performance of trees that have been

planted and have survived. Many popular windbreak

species are not indigenous to the areas in which they

are planted.

Each tree or shrub species has certain climatic and

physiographic limits. Within these parameters, a tree

or shrub may grow well or grow poorly, depending on

the characteristics of the soil. Each tree or shrub has

definable potential heights in a given physiographic

area and under a given climate. Accurate definitions of

potential heights are necessary when a windbreak is

planned and designed.

Table 8 shows the height that locally grown trees

and shrubs are expected to reach in 20 years on

various soils. The estimates in this table are based on

measurements and observation of established

plantings that have been given adequate care. They

can be used as a guide in planning windbreaks and

screens. Additional information on planning

windbreaks and screens and planting and caring for

trees and shrubs can be obtained from local offices of

the Natural Resources Conservation Service or the

Cooperative Extension Service or from a nursery.

Forestland

Virgin forest once covered most of the land in

Fountain County, but the trees have been removed

from most of the land suitable for cultivation. About

26,000 acres in the county, or nearly 10 percent of the

total land acreage, remains forestland (fig. 11). The

soils in much of this remaining forestland are too steep

or too wet for farming. Under proper management, the

soils in these areas produce trees of high quality.

The most common trees in the uplands are mixed

hardwoods, mainly yellow-poplar, sugar maple, white

oak, sycamore, red maple, silver maple, and pin oak.

Site characteristics that affect tree growth include

aspect, or the direction the slope is facing, and

position on the slope. These site characteristics

influence the amount of available sunlight, air

drainage, soil temperature, soil moisture, and relative

humidity. North- and east-facing slopes and low

positions on the slopes are generally the best upland

sites for tree growth because they are cooler and have

better moisture conditions than south- and west-facing

slopes.

Soil properties are fundamentally important for

woodland production. Twenty-five percent or more of

the mass of a tree is in the soil, which serves as a

reservoir for moisture, provides an anchor for roots,

and supplies essential plant nutrients. Soil properties

that affect the growth of trees include reaction, fertility,

wetness, texture, structure, slope, and depth. Trees

grow best on soils having properties that are not

extreme and having an effective rooting depth of more

than 40 inches.

Soil wetness is the result of a high water table,

flooding, or ponding. It causes seedling mortality, limits

the use of equipment, and increases the windthrow

hazard by restricting the rooting depth of some trees.

Ruts form easily if wheeled skidders are used when

the soils are wet. Deep ruts restrict lateral drainage,

damage tree roots, and alter soil structure. Flooding is

a hazard on some soils. On soils that are subject to

flooding or ponding, equipment should be used only

during dry periods or when the ground is frozen.

The slope can limit the use of forestry equipment. A

slope of 15 percent or more limits the use of

equipment in logging and yarding areas and on skid

trails and unsurfaced logging roads. Erosion is a

hazard in these disturbed areas. Special erosioncontrol measures, such as water bars and dips, are

needed. Also, the design of logging roads and skid

trails should minimize the steepness and length of

slopes and prevent the concentration of water. Steep

slopes are a safety hazard and limit the use of

equipment. Equipment should be operated on the

contour where possible for erosion control, but the

steepness of the slope may present a safety issue. On

the steeper slopes, logs should be moved uphill to skid

trails and yarding areas.

Forestland productivity can be influenced by

management activities. These practices include

thinning young stands, harvesting mature trees,

preventing fire, and eliminating the use of woodland for

grazing. Forest fires are no longer a major problem in

the county, but some of the forestland is used for

grazing. Grazing destroys the leaf layer, compacts the

soil, and destroys or damages seedlings. Forestland

sites that are not used for grazing and that are

protected from fire have the highest potential for

production.

Much of the existing commercial forestland in

Fountain County could be improved by thinning out

mature trees and undesirable species. Protection from

grazing and fire and control of disease and insects

also can improve the stands. The Natural Resources
Fountain County, Indiana 73

Conservation Service, the State Division of Forestry,

consulting foresters, and the Cooperative Extension

Service can ascertain specific woodland management

needs. Assistance in establishing, improving, or

managing forestland is available from foresters or

natural resources specialists.

Information about the productivity and management

of the forested map units in this survey area is given in

table 9. This table can be used by forest managers in

planning the use of soils for wood crops. Only those

soils suitable for wood crops are listed.

Management Concerns

Table 9 shows the suitability for the use of

harvesting equipment and the hazard of erosion (offroad, off-trail). The soils are well suited to the use of

tree-harvesting equipment if equipment use is not

limited to a particular kind of equipment or time of

year, moderately well suited if there is a short

seasonal limitation or a need for some modification in

the management of equipment, and poorly suited if

there is a seasonal limitation, a need for special

equipment or management, or a hazard in the use of

equipment.

The hazard of erosion in off-road and off-trail areas

is slight if the expected soil loss is small, moderate if

some measures are needed to control erosion during

logging and road construction, and severe if intensive

management or special equipment and methods are

needed to prevent excessive soil loss.

Potential Productivity

In table 9, the potential productivity of merchantable

or common trees on a soil is expressed as a site index

and as a volume number. The site index is the average

height, in feet, that dominant and codominant trees of

a given species attain in a specified number of years.

The site index applies to fully stocked, even-aged,

unmanaged stands. Commonly grown trees are those

that forest managers generally favor in intermediate or

improvement cuttings. They are selected on the basis

of growth rate, quality, value, and marketability.

Volume, a number, is the yield likely to be produced

by the most important tree species. This number,

Figure 11.—A wooded area of Fincastle silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, near Hideaway Lake.
74 Soil Survey of

expressed as cubic feet per acre per year and

calculated at the age of culmination of the mean

annual increment (CMAI), indicates the amount of

fiber produced in a fully stocked, even-aged,

unmanaged stand.

Suggested trees to plant are those that are suitable

for commercial wood production and are suited to the

soils.

Recreation

The soils of the survey area are rated in table 10

(parts 1 and 2) according to limitations that affect their

suitability for recreation. The ratings are both verbal

and numerical. Rating class terms indicate the extent

to which the soils are limited by all of the soil features

that affect the recreational uses. Not limited indicates

that the soil has features that are very favorable for the

specified use. Good performance and very low

maintenance can be expected. Somewhat limited

indicates that the soil has features that are moderately

favorable for the specified use. The limitations can be

overcome or minimized by special planning, design, or

installation. Fair performance and moderate

maintenance can be expected. Very limited indicates

that the soil has one or more features that are

unfavorable for the specified use. The limitations

generally cannot be overcome without major soil

reclamation, special design, or expensive installation

procedures. Poor performance and high maintenance

can be expected.

Numerical ratings in the tables indicate the severity

of individual limitations. The ratings are shown as

decimal fractions ranging from 0.01 to 1.00. They

indicate gradations between the point at which a soil

feature has the greatest negative impact on the use

(1.00) and the point at which the soil feature is not a

limitation (0.00).

The ratings in the tables are based on restrictive

soil features, such as wetness, slope, and texture of

the surface layer. Susceptibility to flooding is

considered. Not considered in the ratings, but

important in evaluating a site, are the location and

accessibility of the area, the size and shape of the

area and its scenic quality, vegetation, access to

water, potential water impoundment sites, and access

to public sewer lines. The capacity of the soil to absorb

septic tank effluent and the ability of the soil to support

vegetation also are important. Soils that are subject to

flooding are limited for recreational uses by the

duration and intensity of flooding and the season when

flooding occurs. In planning recreational facilities,

onsite assessment of the height, duration, intensity,

and frequency of flooding is essential.

The information in table 10 can be supplemented by

other information in this survey, for example,

interpretations for building site development,

construction materials, and sanitary facilities.

Camp areas require site preparation, such as

shaping and leveling the tent and parking areas,

stabilizing roads and intensively used areas, and

installing sanitary facilities and utility lines. Camp

areas are subject to heavy foot traffic and some

vehicular traffic. The ratings are based on the soil

properties that affect the ease of developing camp

areas and the performance of the areas after

development. Slope, stoniness, and depth to bedrock

or a cemented pan are the main concerns affecting

the development of camp areas. The soil properties

that affect the performance of the areas after

development are those that influence trafficability and

promote the growth of vegetation, especially in heavily

used areas. For good trafficability, the surface of camp

areas should absorb rainfall readily, remain firm under

heavy foot traffic, and not be dusty when dry. The soil

properties that influence trafficability are texture of the

surface layer, depth to a water table, ponding, flooding,

permeability, and large stones. The soil properties that

affect the growth of plants are depth to bedrock or a

cemented pan, permeability, and toxic substances in

the soil.

Picnic areas are subject to heavy foot traffic. Most

vehicular traffic is confined to access roads and

parking areas. The ratings are based on the soil

properties that affect the ease of developing picnic

areas and that influence trafficability and the growth of

vegetation after development. Slope and stoniness are

the main concerns affecting the development of picnic

areas. For good trafficability, the surface of picnic

areas should absorb rainfall readily, remain firm under

heavy foot traffic, and not be dusty when dry. The soil

properties that influence trafficability are texture of the

surface layer, depth to a water table, ponding, flooding,

permeability, and large stones. The soil properties that

affect the growth of plants are depth to bedrock or a

cemented pan, permeability, and toxic substances in

the soil.

Playgrounds require soils that are nearly level, are

free of stones, and can withstand intensive foot traffic.

The ratings are based on the soil properties that affect

the ease of developing playgrounds and that influence

trafficability and the growth of vegetation after

development. Slope and stoniness are the main

concerns affecting the development of playgrounds.

For good trafficability, the surface of the playgrounds

should absorb rainfall readily, remain firm under heavy

foot traffic, and not be dusty when dry. The soil

properties that influence trafficability are texture of the
Fountain County, Indiana 75

surface layer, depth to a water table, ponding, flooding,

permeability, and large stones. The soil properties that

affect the growth of plants are depth to bedrock or a

cemented pan, permeability, and toxic substances in

the soil.

Paths and trails for hiking and horseback riding

should require little or no slope modification through

cutting and filling. The ratings are based on the soil

properties that affect trafficability and erodibility. These

properties are stoniness, depth to a water table,

ponding, flooding, slope, and texture of the surface

layer.

Golf fairways are subject to heavy foot traffic and

some light vehicular traffic. Cutting or filling may be

required. Irrigation is not considered in the ratings. The

ratings are based on the soil properties that affect

plant growth and trafficability after vegetation is

established. The properties that affect plant growth are

reaction; depth to a water table; ponding; depth to

bedrock or a cemented pan; the available water

capacity in the upper 40 inches; the content of salts,

sodium, or calcium carbonate; and sulfidic materials.

The properties that affect trafficability are flooding,

depth to a water table, ponding, slope, stoniness, and

the amount of sand, clay, or organic matter in the

surface layer. The suitability of the soil for traps, tees,

roughs, and greens is not considered in the ratings.

Wildlife Habitat

James D. McCall, wildlife biologist, Natural Resources

Conservation Service, helped prepare this section.

Soils affect the kind and amount of vegetation that

is available to wildlife as food and cover. They also

affect the construction of water impoundments. The

kind and abundance of wildlife depend largely on the

amount and distribution of food, cover, and water.

Wildlife habitat can be created or improved by planting

appropriate vegetation, by maintaining the existing

plant cover, or by promoting the natural establishment

of desirable plants.

In table 11, the soils in the survey area are rated

according to their potential for providing habitat for

various kinds of wildlife. This information can be used

in planning parks, wildlife refuges, nature study areas,

and other developments for wildlife; in selecting soils

that are suitable for establishing, improving, or

maintaining specific elements of wildlife habitat; and in

determining the intensity of management needed for

each element of the habitat.

The potential of the soil is rated good, fair, poor, or

very poor. A rating of good indicates that the element

or kind of habitat is easily established, improved, or

maintained. Few or no limitations affect management,

and satisfactory results can be expected. A rating of

fair indicates that the element or kind of habitat can be

established, improved, or maintained in most places.

Moderately intensive management is required for

satisfactory results. A rating of poor indicates that

limitations are severe for the designated element or

kind of habitat. Habitat can be created, improved, or

maintained in most places, but management is difficult

and must be intensive. A rating of very poor indicates

that restrictions for the element or kind of habitat are

very severe and that unsatisfactory results can be

expected. Creating, improving, or maintaining habitat

is impractical or impossible.

The elements of wildlife habitat are described in the

following paragraphs.

Grain and seed crops are domestic grains and

seed-producing herbaceous plants. Soil properties

and features that affect the growth of grain and seed

crops are depth of the root zone, texture of the surface

layer, available water capacity, wetness, slope, surface

stoniness, and flooding. Soil temperature and soil

moisture also are considerations. Examples of grain

and seed crops are wheat, rye, oats, sorghum, and

sunflowers.

Grasses and legumes are domestic perennial

grasses and herbaceous legumes. Soil properties and

features that affect the growth of grasses and legumes

are depth of the root zone, texture of the surface layer,

available water capacity, wetness, surface stoniness,

flooding, and slope. Soil temperature and soil moisture

also are considerations. Examples of grasses and

legumes are fescue, bromegrass, timothy,

orchardgrass, clover, bluegrass, alfalfa, trefoil, reed

canarygrass, and crownvetch.

Wild herbaceous plants are native or naturally

established grasses and forbs, including weeds. Soil

properties and features that affect the growth of these

plants are depth of the root zone, texture of the

surface layer, available water capacity, wetness,

surface stoniness, and flooding. Soil temperature and

soil moisture also are considerations. Examples of wild

herbaceous plants are goldenrod, beggarweed,

ragweed, pokeweeed, sheep sorrel, dock, crabgrass,

and dandelion.

Hardwood trees and woody understory produce

nuts or other fruit, buds, catkins, twigs, bark, and

foliage. Soil properties and features that affect the

growth of hardwood trees and shrubs are depth of the

root zone, available water capacity, and wetness.

Examples of these plants are oak, poplar, beech, wild

cherry, sweetgum, willow, black walnut, apple,

hawthorn, dogwood, hickory, hazelnut, blackberry,

elderberry, and blueberry. Examples of fruit-producing
76 Soil Survey of

shrubs that are suitable for planting on soils rated

good are hawthorn, honeysuckle, American plum,

redosier dogwood, chokecherry, serviceberry, and

crabapple.

Coniferous plants furnish browse and seeds. Soil

properties and features that affect the growth of

coniferous trees, shrubs, and ground cover are depth

of the root zone, available water capacity, and

wetness. Examples of coniferous plants are pine,

spruce, hemlock, fir, yew, cedar, larch, and juniper.

Wetland plants are annual and perennial wild

herbaceous plants that grow on moist or wet sites.

Submerged or floating aquatic plants are excluded.

Soil properties and features affecting wetland plants

are texture of the surface layer, wetness, reaction,

salinity, slope, and surface stoniness. Examples of

wetland plants are smartweed, pondweed, wild millet,

rushes, sedges, wildrice, arrowhead, waterplantain,

pickerelweed, and cattail.

Shallow water areas have an average depth of less

than 5 feet. Some are naturally wet areas. Others are

created by dams, levees, or other water-control

structures. Soil properties and features affecting

shallow water areas are depth to bedrock, wetness,

surface stoniness, slope, and permeability. Examples

of shallow water areas are marshes, waterfowl feeding

areas, and ponds.

The habitat for various kinds of wildlife is described

in the following paragraphs.

Habitat for openland wildlife consists of cropland,

pasture, meadows, and areas that are overgrown with

grasses, herbs, shrubs, and vines. These areas

produce grain and seed crops, grasses and legumes,

and wild herbaceous plants. Wildlife attracted to these

areas include bobwhite quail, dove, meadowlark, field

sparrow, cottontail, woodchuck, and red fox.

Habitat for woodland wildlife consists of areas of

deciduous and/or coniferous plants and associated

grasses, legumes, and wild herbaceous plants. Wildlife

attracted to these areas include wild turkey, ruffed

grouse, thrushes, woodpeckers, owls, tree squirrels,

porcupine, raccoon, and white-tailed deer.

Habitat for wetland wildlife consists of open, marshy

or swampy shallow water areas. Some of the wildlife

attracted to such areas are ducks, geese, herons,

bitterns, rails, kingfishers, muskrat, otter, mink, and

beaver.

Areas where major land uses or cover types adjoin

are called “edge habitat.” A good example is the border

between dense woodland and a field of no-till corn.

Although not rated in the table, edge habitat is of

primary importance to animals from the smallest

songbirds to white-tailed deer (fig. 12). Most of the

animals that inhabit areas of openland or woodland

also frequent areas of edge habitat, and desirable

edge areas are consistently used by 10 times as many

wildlife as are the centers of large areas of woodland

or cropland.

Hydric Soils

In this section, hydric soils are defined and

described and the hydric soils in the survey area are

listed.

The three essential characteristics of wetlands are

hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and wetland

hydrology (Cowardin and others, 1979; U.S. Army

Corps of Engineers, 1987; National Research Council,

1995; and Tiner, 1985). Criteria for each of the

characteristics must be met for areas to be identified

as wetlands. Undrained hydric soils that have natural

vegetation should support a dominant population of

ecological wetland plant species. Hydric soils that

have been converted to other uses should be capable

of being restored to wetlands.

Hydric soils are defined by the National Technical

Committee for Hydric Soils (NTCHS) as soils that

formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or

ponding long enough during the growing season to

develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part of the

soil profile (Federal Register, 1994). These soils are

either saturated or inundated long enough during the

growing season to support the growth and

reproduction of hydrophytic vegetation.

The NTCHS definition identifies general soil

properties that are associated with wetness. In order

to determine whether a specific soil is a hydric soil or

nonhydric soil, however, more specific information,

such as information about the depth and duration of

the water table, is needed. Thus, criteria that identify

those estimated soil properties unique to hydric soils

have been established (Federal Register, 1995). These

criteria are used to identify a phase of a soil series

that normally is associated with wetlands. The criteria

used are selected estimated soil properties that are

described in “Soil Taxonomy” (USDA, 1999) and “Keys

to Soil Taxonomy” (USDA, 1998) and in the “Soil

Survey Manual” (USDA, 1993).

If soils are wet enough for a long enough period to

be considered hydric, they should exhibit certain

properties that can be easily observed in the field.

These visible properties are indicators of hydric soils.

The indicators that can be used to make onsite

determinations of hydric soils in Fountain County are

specified in “Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the

United States” (Hurt and others, 1996).

Hydric soils are identified by examining and

describing the soil to a depth of about 20 inches. This
Fountain County, Indiana 77

depth may be greater if determination of an

appropriate indicator so requires. It is always

recommended that soils be excavated and described

as deep as necessary for an understanding of the

redoximorphic processes. Then, using the completed

soil description, soil scientists can compare the soil

features required by each indicator and specify which

indicators have been matched with the conditions

observed in the soil. The soil can be identified as a

hydric soil if one (or more) of the approved indicators

is present.

The following map units meet the definition of hydric

soils and in addition have at least one of the hydric soil

indicators. This list can help in planning land uses;

however, onsite investigation is recommended to

determine the hydric soils on a specific site (National

Research Council, 1995; Hurt and others, 1996).

Engineering

This section provides information for planning land

uses related to urban development. Soils are rated for

various uses, and the most limiting features are

identified. Ratings are given for building site

development, sanitary facilities, and construction

materials. The ratings are based on observed

performance of the soils and on the data in the tables

described under the heading “Soil Properties.”

Information in this section is intended for land use

planning, for evaluating land use alternatives, and for

planning site investigations prior to design and

construction. The information, however, has limitations.

For example, estimates and other data generally apply

only to that part of the soil between the surface and a

depth of 5 to 7 feet. Because of the map scale, small

areas of different soils may be included within the

mapped areas of a specific soil.

The information is not site specific and does not

eliminate the need for onsite investigation of the soils

or for testing and analysis by personnel experienced in

the design and construction of engineering works.

Government ordinances and regulations that

restrict certain land uses or impose specific design

criteria were not considered in preparing the

information in this section. Local ordinances and

regulations should be considered in planning, in site

selection, and in design.

Soil properties, site features, and observed

performance were considered in determining the

ratings in this section. During the fieldwork for this soil

survey, determinations were made about particle-size

distribution, liquid limit, plasticity index, soil reaction,

depth to bedrock, hardness of bedrock within 5 to 7

feet of the surface, soil wetness, depth to a water

table, ponding, slope, likelihood of flooding, natural soil

structure aggregation, and soil density. Data were

collected about kinds of clay minerals, mineralogy of

the sand and silt fractions, and the kinds of adsorbed

cations. Estimates were made for erodibility,

permeability, corrosivity, shrink-swell potential,

available water capacity, and other behavioral

characteristics affecting engineering uses.

This information can be used to evaluate the

potential of areas for residential, commercial,

industrial, and recreational uses; make preliminary

estimates of construction conditions; evaluate

alternative routes for roads, streets, highways,

pipelines, and underground cables; evaluate

alternative sites for sanitary landfills, septic tank

absorption fields, and sewage lagoons; plan detailed

onsite investigations of soils and geology; locate

potential sources of gravel, sand, earthfill, and topsoil;

and predict performance of proposed small structures

and pavements by comparing the performance of

existing similar structures on the same or similar soils.

The information in the tables, along with the soil

maps, the soil descriptions, and other data provided in

this survey, can be used to make additional

interpretations.

Some of the terms used in this soil survey have a

special meaning in soil science and are defined in the

Glossary.

Building Site Development

Soil properties influence the development of

building sites, including the selection of the site, the

design of the structure, construction, performance

after construction, and maintenance. Table 12 (parts 1

and 2) show the degree and kind of soil limitations that

affect dwellings with and without basements, small

commercial buildings, local roads and streets, shallow

excavations, and lawns and landscaping.

The ratings in the tables are both verbal and

numerical. Rating class terms indicate the extent to

which the soils are limited by all of the soil features

that affect building site development. Not limited

indicates that the soil has features that are very

favorable for the specified use. Good performance and

very low maintenance can be expected. Somewhat

limited indicates that the soil has features that are

moderately favorable for the specified use. The

limitations can be overcome or minimized by special

planning, design, or installation. Fair performance and

moderate maintenance can be expected. Very limited

indicates that the soil has one or more features that

are unfavorable for the specified use. The limitations

generally cannot be overcome without major soil

reclamation, special design, or expensive installation

procedures. Poor performance and high maintenance

can be expected.

Numerical ratings in the tables indicate the severity

of individual limitations. The ratings are shown as

decimal fractions ranging from 0.01 to 1.00. They

indicate gradations between the point at which a soil

feature has the greatest negative impact on the use

(1.00) and the point at which the soil feature is not a

limitation (0.00).

Dwellings are single-family houses of three stories

or less. For dwellings without basements, the

foundation is assumed to consist of spread footings of

reinforced concrete built on undisturbed soil at a depth

of 2 feet or at the depth of maximum frost penetration,

whichever is deeper. For dwellings with basements,
Fountain County, Indiana 79

the foundation is assumed to consist of spread

footings of reinforced concrete built on undisturbed soil

at a depth of about 7 feet. The ratings for dwellings are

based on the soil properties that affect the capacity of

the soil to support a load without movement and on

the properties that affect excavation and construction

costs. The properties that affect the load-supporting

capacity include depth to a water table, ponding,

flooding, subsidence, linear extensibility (shrink-swell

potential), and compressibility. Compressibility is

inferred from the Unified classification. The properties

that affect the ease and amount of excavation include

depth to a water table, ponding, flooding, slope, depth

to bedrock or a cemented pan, hardness of bedrock or

a cemented pan, and the amount and size of rock

fragments.

Small commercial buildings are structures that are

less than three stories high and do not have

basements. The foundation is assumed to consist of

spread footings of reinforced concrete built on

undisturbed soil at a depth of 2 feet or at the depth of

maximum frost penetration, whichever is deeper. The

ratings are based on the soil properties that affect the

capacity of the soil to support a load without

movement and on the properties that affect excavation

and construction costs. The properties that affect the

load-supporting capacity include depth to a water

table, ponding, flooding, subsidence, linear

extensibility (shrink-swell potential), and

compressibility (which is inferred from the Unified

classification). The properties that affect the ease and

amount of excavation include flooding, depth to a

water table, ponding, slope, depth to bedrock or a

cemented pan, hardness of bedrock or a cemented

pan, and the amount and size of rock fragments.

Local roads and streets have an all-weather surface

and carry automobile and light truck traffic all year.

They have a subgrade of cut or fill soil material; a base

of gravel, crushed rock, or soil material stabilized by

lime or cement; and a surface of flexible material

(asphalt), rigid material (concrete), or gravel with a

binder. The ratings are based on the soil properties

that affect the ease of excavation and grading and the

traffic-supporting capacity. The properties that affect

the ease of excavation and grading are depth to

bedrock or a cemented pan, hardness of bedrock or a

cemented pan, depth to a water table, ponding,

flooding, the amount of large stones, and slope. The

properties that affect the traffic-supporting capacity

are soil strength (as inferred from the AASHTO group

index number), subsidence, linear extensibility (shrinkswell potential), the potential for frost action, depth to a

water table, and ponding.

Shallow excavations are trenches or holes dug to a

maximum depth of 5 or 6 feet for graves, utility lines,

open ditches, or other purposes. The ratings are

based on the soil properties that influence the ease of

digging and the resistance to sloughing. Depth to

bedrock or a cemented pan, hardness of bedrock or a

cemented pan, the amount of large stones, and dense

layers influence the ease of digging, filling, and

compacting. Depth to the seasonal high water table,

flooding, and ponding may restrict the period when

excavations can be made. Slope influences the ease

of using machinery. Soil texture, depth to the water

table, and linear extensibility (shrink-swell potential)

influence the resistance to sloughing.

Lawns and landscaping require soils on which turf

and ornamental trees and shrubs can be established

and maintained. Irrigation is not considered in the

ratings. The ratings are based on the soil properties

that affect plant growth and trafficability after

vegetation is established. The properties that affect

plant growth are reaction; depth to a water table;

ponding; depth to bedrock or a cemented pan; the

available water capacity in the upper 40 inches; the

content of salts, sodium, or calcium carbonate; and

sulfidic materials. The properties that affect

trafficability are flooding, depth to a water table,

ponding, slope, stoniness, and the amount of sand,

clay, or organic matter in the surface layer.

Sanitary Facilities

Table 13 (parts 1 and 2) show the degree and kind

of soil limitations that affect septic tank absorption

fields, sewage lagoons, sanitary landfills, and daily

cover for landfill. The ratings are both verbal and

numerical. Rating class terms indicate the extent to

which the soils are limited by all of the soil features

that affect these uses. Not limited indicates that the

soil has features that are very favorable for the

specified use. Good performance and very low

maintenance can be expected. Somewhat limited

indicates that the soil has features that are moderately

favorable for the specified use. The limitations can be

overcome or minimized by special planning, design, or

installation. Fair performance and moderate

maintenance can be expected. Very limited indicates

that the soil has one or more features that are

unfavorable for the specified use. The limitations

generally cannot be overcome without major soil

reclamation, special design, or expensive installation

procedures. Poor performance and high maintenance

can be expected.

Numerical ratings in the tables indicate the severity

of individual limitations. The ratings are shown as

decimal fractions ranging from 0.01 to 1.00. They

indicate gradations between the point at which a soil
80 Soil Survey of

feature has the greatest negative impact on the use

(1.00) and the point at which the soil feature is not a

limitation (0.00).

Septic tank absorption fields are areas in which

effluent from a septic tank is distributed into the soil

through subsurface tiles or perforated pipe. Only that

part of the soil between depths of 24 and 60 inches is

evaluated. The ratings are based on the soil properties

that affect absorption of the effluent, construction and

maintenance of the system, and public health.

Permeability, depth to a water table, ponding, depth to

bedrock or a cemented pan, and flooding affect

absorption of the effluent. Stones and boulders, ice,

and bedrock or a cemented pan interfere with

installation. Subsidence interferes with installation and

maintenance. Excessive slope may cause lateral

seepage and surfacing of the effluent in downslope

areas.

Some soils are underlain by loose sand and gravel

or fractured bedrock at a depth of less than 4 feet

below the distribution lines. In these soils the

absorption field may not adequately filter the effluent,

particularly when the system is new. As a result, the

ground water may become contaminated.

Sewage lagoons are shallow ponds constructed to

hold sewage while aerobic bacteria decompose the

solid and liquid wastes. Lagoons should have a nearly

level floor surrounded by cut slopes or embankments

of compacted soil. Nearly impervious soil material for

the lagoon floor and sides is required to minimize

seepage and contamination of ground water.

Considered in the ratings are slope, permeability,

depth to a water table, ponding, depth to bedrock or a

cemented pan, flooding, large stones, and content of

organic matter.

Soil permeability is a critical property affecting the

suitability for sewage lagoons. Most porous soils

eventually become sealed when they are used as sites

for sewage lagoons. Until sealing occurs, however, the

hazard of pollution is severe. Soils that have a

permeability rate of more than 2 inches per hour are

too porous for the proper functioning of sewage

lagoons. In these soils, seepage of the effluent can

result in contamination of the ground water. Groundwater contamination is also a hazard if fractured

bedrock is within a depth of 40 inches, if the water

table is high enough to raise the level of sewage in the

lagoon, or if floodwater overtops the lagoon.

A high content of organic matter is detrimental to

proper functioning of the lagoon because it inhibits

aerobic activity. Slope, bedrock, and cemented pans

can cause construction problems, and large stones

can hinder compaction of the lagoon floor. If the

lagoon is to be uniformly deep throughout, the slope

must be gentle enough and the soil material must be

thick enough over bedrock or a cemented pan to make

land smoothing practical.

A trench sanitary landfill is an area where solid

waste is placed in successive layers in an excavated

trench. The waste is spread, compacted, and covered

daily with a thin layer of soil excavated at the site.

When the trench is full, a final cover of soil material at

least 2 feet thick is placed over the landfill. The ratings

in the table are based on the soil properties that affect

the risk of pollution, the ease of excavation,

trafficability, and revegetation. These properties

include permeability, depth to bedrock or a cemented

pan, depth to a water table, ponding, slope, flooding,

texture, stones and boulders, highly organic layers,

soil reaction, and content of salts and sodium. Unless

otherwise stated, the ratings apply only to that part of

the soil within a depth of about 6 feet. For deeper

trenches, onsite investigation may be needed.

Hard, nonrippable bedrock, creviced bedrock, or

highly permeable strata in or directly below the

proposed trench bottom can affect the ease of

excavation and the hazard of ground-water pollution.

Slope affects construction of the trenches and the

movement of surface water around the landfill. It also

affects the construction and performance of roads in

areas of the landfill.

Soil texture and consistence affect the ease with

which the trench is dug and the ease with which the

soil can be used as daily or final cover. They

determine the workability of the soil when dry and

when wet. Soils that are plastic and sticky when wet

are difficult to excavate, grade, or compact and are

difficult to place as a uniformly thick cover over a layer

of refuse.

The soil material used as the final cover for a trench

landfill should be suitable for plants. It should not have

excess sodium or salts and should not be too acid.

The surface layer generally has the best workability,

the highest content of organic matter, and the best

potential for plants. Material from the surface layer

should be stockpiled for use as the final cover.

In an area sanitary landfill, solid waste is placed in

successive layers on the surface of the soil (fig. 13).

The waste is spread, compacted, and covered daily

with a thin layer of soil from a source away from the

site. A final cover of soil material at least 2 feet thick is

placed over the completed landfill. The ratings in the

table are based on the soil properties that affect

trafficability and the risk of pollution. These properties

include flooding, permeability, depth to a water table,

ponding, slope, and depth to bedrock or a cemented

pan.

Flooding is a serious problem because it can result
Fountain County, Indiana 81

in pollution in areas downstream from the landfill. If

permeability is too rapid or if fractured bedrock, a

fractured cemented pan, or the water table is close to

the surface, the leachate can contaminate the water

supply. Slope is a consideration because of the extra

grading required to maintain roads in the steeper

areas of the landfill. Also, leachate may flow along the

surface of the soils in the steeper areas and cause

difficult seepage problems.

Daily cover for landfill is the soil material that is

used to cover compacted solid waste in an area

sanitary landfill. The soil material is obtained offsite,

transported to the landfill, and spread over the waste.

The ratings in the table also apply to the final cover for

a landfill. They are based on the soil properties that

affect workability, the ease of digging, and the ease of

moving and spreading the material over the refuse

daily during wet and dry periods. These properties

include soil texture, depth to a water table, ponding,

rock fragments, slope, depth to bedrock or a

cemented pan, reaction, and content of salts, sodium,

or lime.

Loamy or silty soils that are free of large stones and

excess gravel are the best cover for a landfill. Clayey

soils may be sticky and difficult to spread; sandy soils

are subject to wind erosion.

Slope affects the ease of excavation and of moving

the cover material. Also, it can influence runoff,

erosion, and reclamation of the borrow area.

After soil material has been removed, the soil

material remaining in the borrow area must be thick

enough over bedrock, a cemented pan, or the water

table to permit revegetation. The soil material used as

the final cover for a landfill should be suitable for

plants. It should not have excess sodium, salts, or lime

and should not be too acid.

Waste Management

Soil properties are important when organic waste is

applied as fertilizer and wastewater is applied in

irrigated areas. They also are important when the soil

is used as a medium for the treatment and disposal of

the organic waste and wastewater. Unfavorable soil

properties can result in environmental damage.

The use of organic waste and wastewater as

production resources results in the conservation of

energy and resources and minimizes the problems

associated with waste disposal. If disposal is the goal,

applying a maximum amount of the organic waste or

wastewater to a minimal area holds costs to a

minimum and environmental damage is the main

hazard. If reuse is the goal, a minimum amount should

be applied to a maximum area and environmental

damage is unlikely.

Interpretations developed for waste management

may include ratings for application of manure and

food-processing waste, application of municipal

sewage sludge, disposal of wastewater by irrigation,

and treatment of wastewater by slow rate, overland

flow, and rapid infiltration processes. Specific

information regarding waste management is available

at the local office of the Natural Resources

Conservation Service or the Cooperative Extension

Service.

Construction Materials

Table 14 gives information about the soils as a

source of roadfill, sand, gravel, and topsoil. The soils

are rated good, fair, or poor as a source of roadfill and

topsoil. They are rated as a probable or improbable

source of sand and gravel.

Roadfill is soil material that is excavated in one

place and used in road embankments in another

Figure 13.—Landfill in an area of Udorthents, loamy, 3 to 30

percent slopes.
82

place. In table 14, the soils are rated as a source of

roadfill for low embankments, generally less than 6

feet high and less exacting in design than higher

embankments.

The ratings are for the soil material below the

surface layer to a depth of 5 or 6 feet. It is assumed

that soil layers will be mixed during excavating and

spreading. Many soils have layers of contrasting

suitability within their profile. The table showing

engineering index properties provides detailed

information about each soil layer. This information

can help to determine the suitability of each layer for

use as roadfill. The performance of soil after it is

stabilized with lime or cement is not considered in the

ratings.

The ratings are based on soil properties, site

features, and observed performance of the soils. The

thickness of suitable material is a major consideration.

The ease of excavation is affected by large stones, a

high water table, and slope. How well the soil performs

in place after it has been compacted and drained is

determined by its strength (as inferred from the

engineering classification of the soil) and shrink-swell

potential.

Soils rated good contain significant amounts of

sand or gravel, or both. They have at least 5 feet of

suitable material, a low shrink-swell potential, few

cobbles and stones, and slopes of 15 percent or less.

Depth to the water table is more than 3 feet. Soils

rated fair are more than 35 percent silt- and clay-sized

particles and have a plasticity index of less than 10.

They have a moderate shrink-swell potential, slopes of

15 to 25 percent, or many stones. Depth to the water

table is 1 to 3 feet. Soils rated poor have one or more

of the following characteristics: a plasticity index of

more than 10, a high shrink-swell potential, many

stones, slopes of more than 25 percent, or a water

table at a depth of less than 1 foot. They may have

layers of suitable material, but the material is less than

3 feet thick.

Sand and gravel are natural aggregates suitable for

commercial use with a minimum of processing. They

are used in many kinds of construction. Specifications

for each use vary widely. In table 14, only the

probability of finding material in suitable quantity in or

below the soil is evaluated. The suitability of the

material for specific purposes is not evaluated, nor are

factors that affect excavation of the material.

The properties used to evaluate the soil as a source

of sand or gravel are gradation of grain sizes (as

indicated by the engineering classification of the soil),

the thickness of suitable material, and the content of

rock fragments. Kinds of rock, acidity, and stratification

are given in the soil series descriptions. Gradation of

grain sizes is given in the table on engineering index

properties.

A soil rated as a probable source has a layer of

clean sand or gravel or a layer of sand or gravel that

has up to 12 percent silty fines. This material must be

at least 3 feet thick and less than 50 percent, by

weight, large stones. All other soils are rated as an

improbable source. Fragments of soft bedrock, such

as shale and siltstone, are not considered to be sand

and gravel.

Topsoil is used to cover an area so that vegetation

can be established and maintained. The upper 40

inches of a soil is evaluated for use as topsoil. Also

evaluated is the reclamation potential of the borrow

area.

Plant growth is affected by toxic material and by

such properties as soil reaction, available water

capacity, and fertility. The ease of excavating, loading,

and spreading is affected by rock fragments, slope, a

water table, soil texture, and thickness of suitable

material. Reclamation of the borrow area is affected by

slope, a water table, rock fragments, bedrock, and

toxic material.

Soils rated good have friable, loamy material to a

depth of at least 40 inches. They are free of stones

and cobbles, have little or no gravel, and have slopes

of less than 8 percent. They are low in content of

soluble salts, are naturally fertile or respond well to

fertilizer, and are not so wet that excavation is difficult.

Soils rated fair are sandy soils, loamy soils that

have a relatively high content of clay, soils that have

only 20 to 40 inches of suitable material, soils that

have an appreciable amount of gravel, stones, or

soluble salts, or soils that have slopes of 8 to 15

percent. The soils are not so wet that excavation is

difficult.

Soils rated poor are very sandy or clayey, have less

than 20 inches of suitable material, have a large

amount of gravel, stones, or soluble salts, have slopes

of more than 15 percent, or have a seasonal high

water table at or near the surface.

The surface layer of most soils generally is

preferred for topsoil because of its organic matter

content. Organic matter greatly increases the

absorption and retention of moisture and nutrients for

plant growth.
83

Data relating to soil properties are collected during

the course of the soil survey.

Soil properties are ascertained by field examination

of the soils and by laboratory index testing of some

benchmark soils. Established standard procedures are

followed. During the survey, many shallow borings are

made and examined to identify and classify the soils

and to delineate them on the soil maps. Samples are

taken from some typical profiles and tested in the

laboratory to determine particle-size distribution,

plasticity, and compaction characteristics.

Estimates of soil properties are based on field

examinations, on laboratory tests of samples from the

survey area, and on laboratory tests of samples of

similar soils in nearby areas. Tests verify field

observations, verify properties that cannot be

estimated accurately by field observation, and help to

characterize key soils.

The estimates of soil properties are shown in

tables. They include engineering index properties,

physical and chemical properties, and pertinent soil

and water features.

Engineering Index Properties

Table 15 gives the engineering classifications and

the range of index properties for the layers of each soil

in the survey area.

Depth to the upper and lower boundaries of each

layer is indicated.

Texture is given in the standard terms used by the

U.S. Department of Agriculture. These terms are

defined according to percentages of sand, silt, and

clay in the fraction of the soil that is less than 2

millimeters in diameter (fig. 14). “Loam,” for example, is

soil that is 7 to 27 percent clay, 28 to 50 percent silt,

and less than 52 percent sand. If the content of

particles coarser than sand is 15 percent or more, an

appropriate modifier is added, for example, “gravelly.”

Textural terms are defined in the Glossary.

Classification of the soils is determined according to

the Unified soil classification system (ASTM, 2001)

and the system adopted by the American Association

of State Highway and Transportation Officials

(AASHTO, 2000).

The Unified system classifies soils according to

properties that affect their use as construction

material. Soils are classified according to particle-size

distribution of the fraction less than 3 inches in

diameter and according to plasticity index, liquid limit,

and organic matter content. Sandy and gravelly soils

are identified as GW, GP, GM, GC, SW, SP, SM, and

SC; silty and clayey soils as ML, CL, OL, MH, CH, and

OH; and highly organic soils as PT. Soils exhibiting

engineering properties of two groups can have a dual

classification, for example, CL-ML.

The AASHTO system classifies soils according to

those properties that affect roadway construction and

maintenance. In this system, the fraction of a mineral

soil that is less than 3 inches in diameter is classified

in one of seven groups from A-1 through A-7 on the

basis of particle-size distribution, liquid limit, and

plasticity index. Soils in group A-1 are coarse grained

Soil Properties

Figure 14.—Percentages of clay, silt, and sand in the basic

USDA soil textural classes.
84 Soil Survey of

and low in content of fines (silt and clay). At the other

extreme, soils in group A-7 are fine grained. Highly

organic soils are classified in group A-8 on the basis of

visual inspection.

If laboratory data are available, the A-1, A-2, and A7 groups are further classified as A-1-a, A-1-b, A-2-4,

A-2-5, A-2-6, A-2-7, A-7-5, or A-7-6. As an additional

refinement, the suitability of a soil as subgrade

material can be indicated by a group index number.

Group index numbers range from 0 for the best

subgrade material to 20 or higher for the poorest.

Rock fragments larger than 10 inches in diameter

and 3 to 10 inches in diameter are indicated as a

percentage of the total soil on a dry-weight basis. The

percentages are estimates determined mainly by

converting volume percentage in the field to weight

percentage.

Percentage (of soil particles) passing designated

sieves is the percentage of the soil fraction less than 3

inches in diameter based on an ovendry weight. The

sieves, numbers 4, 10, 40, and 200 (USA Standard

Series), have openings of 4.76, 2.00, 0.420, and 0.074

millimeters, respectively. Estimates are based on

laboratory tests of soils sampled in the survey area

and in nearby areas and on estimates made in the

field.

Liquid limit and plasticity index (Atterberg limits)

indicate the plasticity characteristics of a soil. The

estimates are based on test data from the survey area

or from nearby areas and on field examination.

The estimates of particle-size distribution, liquid

limit, and plasticity index are generally rounded to the

nearest 5 percent. Thus, if the ranges of gradation and

Atterberg limits extend a marginal amount (1 or 2

percentage points) across classification boundaries,

the classification in the marginal zone is generally

omitted in the table.

Physical Properties

Table 16 shows estimates of some physical

characteristics and features that affect soil behavior.

These estimates are given for the layers of each soil in

the survey area. The estimates are based on field

observations and on test data for these and similar

soils.

Depth to the upper and lower boundaries of each

layer is indicated.

Clay as a soil separate consists of mineral soil

particles that are less than 0.002 millimeter in

diameter. In this table, the estimated clay content of

each major soil layer is given as a percentage, by

weight, of the soil material that is less than 2

millimeters in diameter.

The amount and kind of clay greatly affect the

fertility and physical condition of the soil. They

determine the ability of the soil to adsorb cations and

to retain moisture. They influence shrink-swell

potential, permeability, plasticity, the ease of soil

dispersion, and other soil properties. The amount and

kind of clay in a soil also affect tillage and earthmoving

operations.

Moist bulk density is the weight of soil (ovendry) per

unit volume. Volume is measured when the soil is at

field moisture capacity, that is, the moisture content at

1

/3- or 1/10-bar (33kPa or 10kPa) moisture tension.

Weight is determined after the soil is dried at 105

degrees C. In the table, the estimated moist bulk

density of each soil horizon is expressed in grams per

cubic centimeter of soil material that is less than 2

millimeters in diameter. Bulk density data are used to

compute shrink-swell potential, available water

capacity, total pore space, and other soil properties.

The moist bulk density of a soil indicates the pore

space available for water and roots. Depending on soil

texture, a bulk density of more than 1.4 can restrict

water storage and root penetration. Moist bulk density

is influenced by texture, kind of clay, content of organic

matter, and soil structure.

Permeability (Ksat ) refers to the ability of a soil to

transmit water or air. The term “permeability,” as used

in soil surveys, indicates saturated hydraulic

conductivity (Ksat ). The estimates in the table indicate

the rate of water movement, in inches per hour, when

the soil is saturated. They are based on soil

characteristics observed in the field, particularly

structure, porosity, and texture. Permeability is

considered in the design of soil drainage systems and

septic tank absorption fields.

Available water capacity refers to the quantity of

water that the soil is capable of storing for use by

plants. The capacity for water storage is given in

inches of water per inch of soil for each soil layer. The

capacity varies, depending on soil properties that

affect retention of water. The most important

properties are the content of organic matter, soil

texture, bulk density, and soil structure. Available water

capacity is an important factor in the choice of plants

or crops to be grown and in the design and

management of irrigation systems. Available water

capacity is not an estimate of the quantity of water

actually available to plants at any given time.

Linear extensibility refers to the change in length of

an unconfined clod as moisture content is decreased

from a moist to a dry state. It is an expression of the

volume change between the water content of the clod

at 1/3- or 1/10-bar tension (33kPa or 10kPa tension) and

oven dryness. The volume change is reported in the
Fountain County, Indiana 85

table as percent change for the whole soil. Volume

change is influenced by the amount and type of clay

minerals in the soil.

Linear extensibility is used to determine the shrinkswell potential of soils. The shrink-swell potential is low

if the soil has a linear extensibility of less than 3

percent; moderate if 3 to 6 percent; high if 6 to 9

percent; and very high if more than 9 percent. If the

linear extensibility is more than 3, shrinking and

swelling can cause damage to buildings, roads, and

other structures and to plant roots. Special design

commonly is needed.

Erosion factors are shown in table 16 as the K

factor (Kw and Kf) and the T factor. Erosion factor K

indicates the susceptibility of a soil to sheet and rill

erosion by water. Factor K is one of several factors

used in the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and

the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) to

predict the average annual rate of soil loss by sheet

and rill erosion in tons per acre per year. The

estimates are based primarily on percentage of silt,

sand, and organic matter and on soil structure and

permeability. Values of K range from 0.02 to 0.69.

Other factors being equal, the higher the value, the

more susceptible the soil is to sheet and rill erosion by

water.

Erosion factor Kw indicates the erodibility of the

whole soil. The estimates are modified by the

presence of rock fragments.

Erosion factor Kf indicates the erodibility of the fineearth fraction, or the material less than 2 millimeters in

size.

Erosion factor T is an estimate of the maximum

average annual rate of soil erosion by wind or water

that can occur without affecting crop productivity over

a sustained period. The rate is in tons per acre per

year.

Wind erodibility groups are made up of soils that

have similar properties affecting their susceptibility to

wind erosion in cultivated areas. The soils assigned to

group 1 are the most susceptible to wind erosion, and

those assigned to group 8 are the least susceptible.

The groups are as follows:

1. Coarse sands, sands, fine sands, and very fine

sands.

2. Loamy coarse sands, loamy sands, loamy fine

sands, loamy very fine sands, ash material, and sapric

soil material.

3. Coarse sandy loams, sandy loams, fine sandy

loams, and very fine sandy loams.

4L. Calcareous loams, silt loams, clay loams, and

silty clay loams.

4. Clays, silty clays, noncalcareous clay loams,

and silty clay loams that are more than 35 percent

clay.

5. Noncalcareous loams and silt loams that are

less than 20 percent clay and sandy clay loams, sandy

clays, and hemic soil material.

6. Noncalcareous loams and silt loams that are

more than 20 percent clay and noncalcareous clay

loams that are less than 35 percent clay.

7. Silts, noncalcareous silty clay loams that are

less than 35 percent clay, and fibric soil material.

8. Soils that are not subject to wind erosion

because of rock fragments on the surface or because

of surface wetness.

Chemical Properties

Table 17 shows estimates of some chemical

characteristics and features that affect soil behavior.

These estimates are given for the layers of each soil in

the survey area. The estimates are based on field

observations and on test data for these and similar

soils. The table also shows the content of organic

matter in the surface layer of the soils.

Depth to the upper and lower boundaries of each

layer is indicated.

Soil reaction is a measure of acidity or alkalinity.

The pH of each soil horizon is based on many field

tests. For many soils, values have been verified by

laboratory analyses. Soil reaction is important in

selecting crops and other plants, in evaluating soil

amendments for fertility and stabilization, and in

determining the risk of corrosion.

Organic matter is the plant and animal residue in

the soil at various stages of decomposition. In table

17, the estimated content of organic matter is

expressed as a percentage, by weight, of the soil

material that is less than 2 millimeters in diameter.

The content of organic matter in a soil can be

maintained by returning crop residue to the soil.

Organic matter has a positive effect on available water

capacity, water infiltration, soil organism activity, and

tilth. It is a source of nitrogen and other nutrients for

crops and soil organisms.

Cation-exchange capacity is the total amount of

extractable bases that can be held by the soil,

expressed in terms of milliequivalents per 100 grams

of soil at neutrality (pH 7.0) or at some other stated pH

value. Soils having a low cation-exchange capacity

hold fewer cations and may require more frequent

applications of fertilizer than soils having a high cationexchange capacity. The ability to retain cations

reduces the hazard of ground-water pollution.

Calcium carbonate equivalent is the percent of
86 Soil Survey of

carbonates, by weight, in the fraction of the soil less

than 2 millimeters in size. The availability of plant

nutrients is influenced by the amount of carbonates in

the soil. Incorporating nitrogen fertilizer into calcareous

soils helps to prevent nitrite accumulation and

ammonium-N volatilization.

Water Features

Table 18 gives estimates of various water features.

The estimates are used in land use planning that

involves engineering considerations.

Hydrologic soil groups are based on estimates of

runoff potential. Soils are assigned to one of four

groups according to the rate of water infiltration when

the soils are not protected by vegetation, are

thoroughly wet, and receive precipitation from longduration storms.

The four hydrologic soil groups are:

Group A. Soils having a high infiltration rate (low

runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist

mainly of deep, well drained to excessively drained

sands or gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate

of water transmission.

Group B. Soils having a moderate infiltration rate

when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of

moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or

well drained soils that have moderately fine texture to

moderately coarse texture. These soils have a

moderate rate of water transmission.

Group C. Soils having a slow infiltration rate when

thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of soils having a

layer that impedes the downward movement of water

or soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture.

These soils have a slow rate of water transmission.

Group D. Soils having a very slow infiltration rate

(high runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These

consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink-swell

potential, soils that have a high water table, soils that

have a claypan or clay layer at or near the surface,

and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious

material. These soils have a very slow rate of water

transmission.

The months in the table indicate the portion of the

year in which the feature is most likely to be a

concern.

Water table refers to a saturated zone in the soil.

Table 18 indicates, by month, depth to the top (upper

limit) and base (lower limit) of the saturated zone in

most years. Estimates of the upper and lower limits

are based mainly on observations of the water table

at selected sites and on evidence of a saturated

zone, namely grayish colors or mottles

(redoximorphic features) in the soil. A saturated

zone that lasts for less than a month is not considered

a water table.

Ponding is standing water in a closed depression.

Unless a drainage system is installed, the water is

removed only by percolation, transpiration, or

evaporation. Table 18 indicates the maximum ponding

depth and the ponding duration. Duration is expressed

as very brief if less than 2 days, brief if 2 to 7 days,

long if 7 to 30 days, and very long if more than 30

days.

Flooding is the temporary inundation of an area

caused by overflowing streams, by runoff from

adjacent slopes, or by tides (fig. 15). Water standing

for short periods after rainfall or snowmelt is not

considered flooding, and water standing in swamps

and marshes is considered ponding rather than

flooding.

Duration and frequency are estimated. Duration is

expressed as extremely brief if 0.1 hour to 4 hours,

very brief if 4 hours to 2 days, brief if 2 to 7 days, long

if 7 to 30 days, and very long if more than 30 days.

Frequency is expressed as none, very rare, rare,

occasional, frequent, and very frequent. None means

that flooding is not probable; very rare that it is very

unlikely but possible under extremely unusual weather

conditions (the chance of flooding is less than 1

percent in any year); rare that it is unlikely but possible

under unusual weather conditions (the chance of

flooding is 1 to 5 percent in any year); occasional that

it occurs infrequently under normal weather conditions

(the chance of flooding is 5 to 50 percent in any year);

frequent that it is likely to occur often under normal

weather conditions (the chance of flooding is more

than 50 percent in any year but is less than 50 percent

in all months in any year); and very frequent that it is

likely to occur very often under normal weather

conditions (the chance of flooding is more than 50

percent in all months of any year).

The information is based on evidence in the soil

profile, namely thin strata of gravel, sand, silt, or clay

deposited by floodwater; irregular decrease in organic

matter content with increasing depth; and little or no

horizon development.

Also considered are local information about the

extent and levels of flooding and the relation of each

soil on the landscape to historic floods. Information on

the extent of flooding based on soil data is less

specific than that provided by detailed engineering

surveys that delineate flood-prone areas at specific

flood frequency levels.

Soil Features

Table 19 gives estimates of various soil features.

The estimates are used in land use planning that

involves engineering considerations.

Bedrock is the solid rock that underlies the soil and

other unconsolidated material or that is exposed at the

surface. It significantly impedes the movement of

water and air through the soil and restricts root

penetration. The table indicates the hardness of the

bedrock, which significantly affects the ease of

excavation. Depth to top is the vertical distance from

the soil surface to the upper boundary of the bedrock.

Subsidence is the settlement of organic soils or of

saturated mineral soils of very low density. Subsidence

generally results from either desiccation and

shrinkage or oxidation of organic material, or both,

following drainage. Subsidence takes place gradually,

usually over a period of several years. The table shows

the expected initial subsidence, which usually is a

result of drainage, and total subsidence, which results

from a combination of factors.

Potential for frost action is the likelihood of upward

or lateral expansion of the soil caused by the formation

of segregated ice lenses (frost heave) and the

subsequent collapse of the soil and loss of strength on

thawing. Frost action occurs when moisture moves

into the freezing zone of the soil. Temperature, texture,

density, permeability, content of organic matter, and

depth to the water table are the most important factors

considered in evaluating the potential for frost action. It

is assumed that the soil is not insulated by vegetation

or snow and is not artificially drained. Silty and highly

structured, clayey soils that have a high water table in

winter are the most susceptible to frost action. Well

drained, very gravelly, or very sandy soils are the least

susceptible. Frost heave and low soil strength during

thawing cause damage to pavements and other rigid

structures.

Risk of corrosion pertains to potential soil-induced

Figure 15.—Flooding along Coal Creek, in an area of Genesee soils 0 to 2 percent slopes, occasionally flooded, brief duration.

electrochemical or chemical action that corrodes or

weakens uncoated steel or concrete. The rate of

corrosion of uncoated steel is related to such factors

as soil moisture, particle-size distribution, acidity, and

electrical conductivity of the soil. The rate of corrosion

of concrete is based mainly on the sulfate and sodium

content, texture, moisture content, and acidity of the

soil. Special site examination and design may be

needed if the combination of factors results in a severe

hazard of corrosion. The steel or concrete in

installations that intersect soil boundaries or soil layers

is more susceptible to corrosion than the steel or

concrete in installations that are entirely within one

kind of soil or within one soil layer.

For uncoated steel, the risk of corrosion, expressed

as low, moderate, or high, is based on soil drainage

class, total acidity, electrical resistivity near field

capacity, and electrical conductivity of the saturation

extract.

For concrete, the risk of corrosion also is expressed

as low, moderate, or high. It is based on soil texture,

acidity, and amount of sulfates in the saturation extract.
89

The system of soil classification used by the

National Cooperative Soil Survey has six categories

(USDA, 1998 and 1999). Beginning with the broadest,

these categories are the order, suborder, great group,

subgroup, family, and series. Classification is based on

soil properties observed in the field or inferred from

those observations or from laboratory measurements.

Table 20 shows the classification of the soils in the

survey area. The categories are defined in the

following paragraphs.

ORDER. Twelve soil orders are recognized. The

differences among orders reflect the dominant soilforming processes and the degree of soil formation.

Each order is identified by a word ending in sol. An

example is Alfisol.

SUBORDER. Each order is divided into suborders

primarily on the basis of properties that influence soil

genesis and are important to plant growth or

properties that reflect the most important variables

within the orders. The last syllable in the name of a

suborder indicates the order. An example is Udalf (Ud,

meaning humid, plus alf, from Alfisol).

GREAT GROUP. Each suborder is divided into

great groups on the basis of close similarities in kind,

arrangement, and degree of development of

pedogenic horizons; soil moisture and temperature

regimes; type of saturation; and base status. Each

great group is identified by the name of a suborder

and by a prefix that indicates a property of the soil. An

example is Hapludalfs (Hapl, meaning minimal

horizonation, plus udalf, the suborder of the Alfisols

that has a udic moisture regime).

SUBGROUP. Each great group has a typic

subgroup. Other subgroups are intergrades or

extragrades. The typic subgroup is the central concept

of the great group; it is not necessarily the most

extensive. Intergrades are transitions to other orders,

suborders, or great groups. Extragrades have some

properties that are not representative of the great

group but do not indicate transitions to any other

taxonomic class. Each subgroup is identified by one or

more adjectives preceding the name of the great

group. The adjective Typic identifies the subgroup that

typifies the great group. An example is Typic

Hapludalfs.

FAMILY. Families are established within a

subgroup on the basis of physical and chemical

properties and other characteristics that affect

management. Generally, the properties are those of

horizons below plow depth where there is much

biological activity. Among the properties and

characteristics considered are particle-size class,

mineralogy class, cation-exchange activity class, soil

temperature regime, soil depth, and reaction class. A

family name consists of the name of a subgroup

preceded by terms that indicate soil properties. An

example is fine-silty, mixed, superactive, mesic Typic

Hapludalfs.

SERIES. The series consists of soils within a

family that have horizons similar in color, texture,

structure, reaction, consistence, mineral and chemical

composition, and arrangement in the profile. The Rush

series is an example.

Soil Series and Their Morphology

In this section each soil series recognized in the

survey area is described. Characteristics of the soil

and the material in which it formed are identified for

each soil series. A pedon, a small three-dimensional

area of soil, that is typical of the series in the survey

area is described. The detailed description of each soil

horizon follows standards in the “Soil Survey Manual”

(USDA, 1993). Many of the technical terms used in the

descriptions are defined in “Soil Taxonomy” (USDA,

1999) and in “Keys to Soil Taxonomy” (USDA, 1998).

Unless otherwise indicated, colors in the descriptions

are for moist soil. Following the pedon description is

the range of important characteristics of the soils in

the series.

This section explains the major factors of soil

formation that affected the soils in Fountain County

and describes the processes of soil formation.

Factors of Soil Formation

Soil forms through processes acting on deposited

or accumulated geologic material. The characteristics

of the soil at any given point are determined by 1) the

physical and mineralogical composition of the parent

material; 2) the climate under which the soil formed; 3)

the plant and animal life on and in the soil; 4) the relief,

or lay of the land; and 5) the length of time that the

forces of soil formation have acted on the soil material

(Jenny, 1941).

Parent material greatly affects the kind of soil

profile that forms. Climate and plant and animal life,

chiefly plants, are active factors of soil formation. They

act on the parent material that has accumulated

through the weathering of rocks and slowly change it

into a natural body that has genetically related

horizons. Relief conditions the effects of climate and

plant and animal life. Finally, time is needed for the

transformation of the parent material into a soil. Some

time is always required for the differentiation of soil

horizons.

The factors of soil formation are so closely

interrelated in their effects on the soil that few

generalizations can be made regarding the effects of

any one factor unless conditions are specified for the

other four.

Parent Material and Geology

Parent material is the unconsolidated mass in which

a soil forms. It includes residuum derived from

sandstone, siltstone, or shale and clayey, sandy, or

silty material deposited by glaciers, water, or wind.

The soils in Fountain County formed in glacial drift,

outwash, and till of Wisconsinan age; loess, or

windblown silty and sandy material; and sandstone,

siltstone, and shale residuum. Some soils formed in

two or more of these kinds of material. For example,

the upper part of Rush soils formed in loess and the

lower part in glacial outwash.

The county is underlain by bedrock of different

kinds and age. Outcrops of sandstone or siltstone with

shale are along most of the valleys of permanently

flowing streams. Pennsylvanian bedrock is exposed in

the western two-thirds of the county. This bedrock is

primarily sandstone, but there is some shale and coal.

Mississippian sandstone, siltstone, and shale bedrock

is in the eastern one-third of the county (fig. 17).

When the glaciers first advanced into Fountain

County, perhaps about a million years ago, the

landscapes of the county were different from those of

today. Meltwater flowing from the glaciers cut channels

and rearranged the existing stream patterns. Fountain

County has been glaciated several times. Each

successive glacial advance made its mark on the land

and, in so doing, eliminated some of the evidence of

earlier glaciers.

Glaciers and their meltwater are agents of

deposition. Over most of Fountain County, they left

deposits as evidence of their activity. They deposited

till, a compact mixture of pebbles, sand, silt, and clay,

directly. Meltwater streams deposited sand and gravel

known as outwash. Along the edges of some of the

larger streams, the wind deposited dune sand. The

wind also deposited blankets of silt, known as loess,

over most of the county. The youngest deposits

include sand and silt in the valleys of the present

streams.

The county is covered by a mantle of glacial drift

that ranges in thickness from less than 5 feet on rock

terraces along the valley of the Wabash River to more

than 200 feet in some of the preglacial valleys.

The terrace material along the Wabash River was

carried in by glacial meltwater. As the glacial ice

receded, it released a tremendous volume of water.

This torrent carried an enormous amount of material

that ranged in size from large boulders to very fine

sand, silt, and clay. When the water lost its velocity, the

material was deposited in very thick stratified beds

along the stream channel.

Fountain County is completely covered by a mantle

of loess that ranges from a few inches to more than 6

feet in thickness and is underlain by the landforms that

existed when the loess was deposited. Deposits as

much as 7 feet thick have been found. In about half of

the county, the mantle of loess is 20 to 40 inches thick.

Formation of the Soils
156 Soil Survey of

Climate

Climate largely determines the kind of plant and

animal life on and in the soil. It also determines the

amount of water available for the weathering of

minerals and the translocation of soil material.

Temperature determines the rate of chemical reactions

in the soil. These effects tend to be uniform in relatively

small areas, such as those the size of a county.

The climate in Fountain County is generally cool

and moist in winter and hot and humid in summer. It is

presumably similar to the one that prevailed when the

soils formed. The climate is nearly uniform throughout

the county, and thus differences among the soils in the

county are not the result of varied climatic conditions.

Plant and Animal Life

Plants have been one of the principal organisms

influencing the soils in Fountain County, but bacteria,

fungi, earthworms, and human activities also have

been important. The chief contribution of plant and

animal life is the addition of organic matter and

nitrogen to the soil. The kind of organic material in and

on the soil depends on the kind of native plants that

grew on the soil. The remains of these plants

accumulated in the surface layer, decayed, and

eventually became humus. The roots of the plants

provided channels for the downward movement of

water and air through the soil, and they added organic

matter as they decayed. Bacteria in the soil help to

break down the organic matter into plant nutrients.

Before human settlement of the county, the native

vegetation was important in the complex of living

organisms that affected soil formation. Plants, microorganisms, earthworms, and other forms of life that

live in and on the soil affect soil morphology.

The native vegetation in Fountain County can be

assigned to three main groups, each of which played

an important role in forming different kinds of soil.

Prairie grasses covered the northern third of the

county, and trees covered the southern two-thirds.

Water-tolerant grasses, sedges, and reeds grew in

Figure 17.—Wolf Creek flowing over Mississippian sandstone bedrock in an area of Judyville fine sandy loam, 25 to 70 percent

slopes.
Fountain County, Indiana 157

scattered, large, level or depressional areas that were

covered by water much of the time.

Only a small amount of organic matter is in forested

soils that have never been cleared. These soils are

covered with a thin layer of forest litter and leaf mold

that comes from fallen leaves and twigs. This thin layer

supplies organic matter that is mixed throughout the

top 1 or 2 inches of surface soil.

Prairie grasses, on the other hand, add a large

amount of organic matter that comes from the leafy

material and from the large system of fine, fibrous

roots. Because much of the year is cold, microbial

activity is arrested, the organic matter does not

decompose excessively, and much of it accumulates

in the mineral soils. Consequently, prairie soils in the

northern third of the county have a dark surface layer

that is high in content of organic matter.

Micro-organisms need a certain amount of oxygen

to decompose organic matter. They cannot get the

oxygen they need if the soil is waterlogged. Although

less vegetative matter accumulates each year in

swampy areas than in prairie areas, less is

decomposed and a large amount of the organic matter

remains. Hence, the content of organic matter is high

in soils that are covered by water most of the year.

Relief

Slopes in Fountain County range from nearly level

on bottom lands, terraces, and upland flats to very

steep on breaks (fig. 18). Except in the immediate area

of the major streams, mainly in the western part of the

county, most of the county has not been severely

dissected by weathering and stream cutting.

Relief has affected drainage and the development

of the soils in Fountain County. Relief influences soil

formation by greatly affecting natural drainage, runoff,

geologic or accelerated erosion, the plant cover, and

soil temperature. Differences in relief strongly affect

the content of moisture and of air in the soils. Where

the parent material and climate are the same, less

strongly developed soil profiles formed on steep

slopes than in the more nearly level areas. This

greater degree of horizon development on the strong

slopes is the result of rapid geologic erosion,

increased percolation of water through the soil, and an

insufficient amount of water for vigorous plant growth.

The amount of water passing through a soil largely

determines the degree to which a soil profile develops

in a given time, from a given parent material, and

under a given kind of vegetation.

Runoff is most rapid on the steepest slopes. Low,

depressional areas are often temporarily ponded. The

greater the runoff rate, the greater the hazard of erosion.

Through its effect on aeration in the soil, drainage

determines the major color of the soil. Water and air

move freely through most well drained soils and slowly

through very poorly drained soils. In Angatoka,

Russell, and other well aerated soils, the iron and

aluminum compounds that give most soils their color

are reddish or brownish and are oxidized. Ragsdale,

Treaty, and other poorly aerated soils that are

saturated for long periods are dominantly gray and

Figure 18.—Some of the major soil series in Fountain County in relation to their topography and parent material.
158

have reddish and brownish accumulations of iron. The

soils are gray because the iron compounds are in a

reduced state or have been removed from the profile.

Soils on west- and south-facing slopes generally

have a warmer soil temperature than soils on northand east-facing slopes.

Time

Generally, a long time is needed for the

development of distinct soil horizons. The length of

time that the parent material has been in place

commonly reflects the degree of profile development.

Because of differences in parent material, in relief,

and in climate, some soils mature more slowly than

others. For example, Allison, Battleground, and other

alluvial soils are immature because their parent

material is young and new material is deposited

periodically. Soils on steep slopes are likely to be

immature because geologic erosion removes the soil

material as fast as it accumulates. Also, because

runoff is significant on steep slopes, less water moves

downward through the soil. Some kinds of parent rock

are so resistant to weathering that soil formation is

very slow, even though other conditions favor soil

formation. A mature soil is one that has well developed

A and B horizons that were produced by the natural

processes of soil formation. An immature soil is

characterized by little or no horizon differentiation.

The most fully developed soil profiles in Fountain

County occur in areas where the parent material has

remained in place the longest. The geologically oldest

soils, such as Cates and Judyville soils, which formed

in sandstone, siltstone, and shale residuum, are along

the steep breaks adjacent to the Wabash River. These

soils are not so deep or so mature, however, as Miami,

Williamstown, and other soils that formed in

Wisconsinan till and drift and have a well developed

soil profile. Natural geologic erosion is rapid on the

soils on steep breaks, and the material has not been

allowed to accumulate and mature.

The layer of thick loess in Fountain County was

deposited shortly after deposition of the glacial

material. Angatoka, Birkbeck, and other soils formed in

this loess at the same time that soils formed in glacial

material or shortly thereafter.

Processes of Soil Formation

Several processes have been involved in the

formation of the soils in Fountain County. These

processes are the accumulation of organic matter;

the dissolution, transfer, and removal of calcium

carbonates and bases; the liberation and

translocation of silicate clay minerals; and the

reduction and transfer of iron. In most of the soils in

the county, more than one of these processes have

helped to differentiate soil horizons (Ruhe, 1956;

Stevenson, 1982).

Some organic matter has accumulated in the

surface layer of all the soils in the county. The content

of organic matter in many of the soils is low or

moderately low.

Carbonates and bases have been leached from the

upper horizons of many of the soils in the county.

Leaching probably preceded the translocation of

silicate clay minerals. Almost all of the carbonates and

some of the bases have been leached from the A and

B horizons of the well drained soils. Even in the

wettest soils, some leaching is indicated by the

absence of carbonates and by an acid soil reaction.

Leaching of wet soils is slow because of a seasonal

high water table or the slow movement of water

through the profile.

Clay accumulates in pores and other voids and

forms films on the surfaces along which water moves.

The leaching of bases and the translocation of silicate

clays are among the more important processes

affecting horizon differentiation in the soils. Crosby

soils are examples of soils in which translocated

silicate clays have accumulated in the Bt horizon in the

form of clay films. Gleying, or the reduction and

transfer of iron, has occurred in all of the very poorly

drained to somewhat poorly drained soils in the

county. This process has had a significant effect on

horizon differentiation in these naturally wet soils. A

gray subsoil indicates the reduction of iron oxides. This

reduction is commonly accompanied by some transfer

of the iron from the upper horizons to the lower ones

or completely out of the profile. Redoximorphic

concentrations in some horizons indicate the

segregation of iron.

areas.

Concretions. Cemented bodies with crude internal

symmetry organized around a point, a line, or a

plane. They typically take the form of concentric

layers visible to the naked eye. Calcium carbonate,

place, concretions of iron oxide or manganese

oxide are generally considered a type of

redoximorphic concentration.

composed of rounded or subangular rock

fragments more than 2 millimeters in diameter. It

commonly has a matrix of sand and finer textured

material. Conglomerate is the consolidated

equivalent of gravel.

Conservation cropping system. Growing crops in
Fountain County, Indiana 163

combination with needed cultural and

management practices. In a good conservation

cropping system, the soil-improving crops and

practices more than offset the effects of the soildepleting crops and practices. Cropping systems

are needed on all tilled soils. Soil-improving

practices in a conservation cropping system

include the use of rotations that contain grasses

and legumes and the return of crop residue to the

soil. Other practices include the use of green

manure crops of grasses and legumes, proper

tillage, adequate fertilization, and weed and pest

control.

Conservation tillage. A tillage system that does not

invert the soil and that leaves a protective amount

of crop residue on the surface throughout the year.

Consistence, soil. Refers to the degree of cohesion

and adhesion of soil material and its resistance to

deformation when ruptured. Consistence includes

resistance of soil material to rupture and to

penetration; plasticity, toughness, and stickiness of

puddled soil material; and the manner in which the

soil material behaves when subject to

compression. Terms describing consistence are

defined in the “Soil Survey Manual.”

Contour stripcropping. Growing crops in strips that

follow the contour. Strips of grass or close-growing

crops are alternated with strips of clean-tilled

crops or summer fallow.

classification is based. The thickness varies

among different kinds of soil, but for many it is that

part of the soil profile between depths of 10 inches

and 40 or 80 inches.

living branches and their foliage.

Culmination of the mean annual increment (CMAI).

The average annual increase per acre in the

volume of a stand. Computed by dividing the total

volume of the stand by its age. As the stand

increases in age, the mean annual increment

reduce the rate of increase. The point where the

stand reaches its maximum annual rate of growth

is called the culmination of the mean annual

increment.

tend to cave in or slough.

Deferred grazing. Postponing grazing or resting

grazing land for a prescribed period.

Delta. A body of alluvium having a surface that is

the mouth of a river or stream where it enters a

body of relatively quiet water, generally a sea or

lake.

Dense layer (in tables). A very firm, massive layer that

has a bulk density of more than 1.8 grams per

cubic centimeter. Such a layer affects the ease of

digging and can affect filling and compacting.

Depth, soil. Generally, the thickness of the soil over

bedrock. Very deep soils are more than 60 inches

deep over bedrock; deep soils, 40 to 60 inches;

moderately deep, 20 to 40 inches; shallow, 10 to

20 inches; and very shallow, less than 10 inches.

Dip slope. A slope of the land surface, roughly

determined by and approximately conforming to

the dip of the underlying bedrock.

Diversion (or diversion terrace). A ridge of earth,

generally a terrace, built to protect downslope

areas by diverting runoff from its natural course.

Divided-slope farming. A form of field stripcropping

in which crops are grown in a systematic

arrangement of two strips, or bands, across the

slope to reduce the hazard of water erosion. One

strip is in a close-growing crop that provides

protection from erosion, and the other strip is in a

crop that provides less protection from erosion.

This practice is used where slopes are not long

enough to permit a full stripcropping pattern to be

used.

Drainage class (natural). Refers to the frequency and

duration of wet periods under conditions similar to

those under which the soil formed. Alterations of

the water regime by human activities, either

through drainage or irrigation, are not a

consideration unless they have significantly

changed the morphology of the soil. Seven
164 Soil Survey of

erosion.

Erosion (accelerated). Erosion much more rapid

than geologic erosion, mainly as a result of human

or animal activities or of a catastrophe in nature,

such as a fire, that exposes the surface.

Escarpment. A relatively continuous and steep slope

or cliff breaking the general continuity of more

gently sloping land surfaces and resulting from

erosion or faulting. Synonym: scarp.

the lowest bulk density and the highest water

content at saturation of all organic soil material.

Field moisture capacity. The moisture content of a

soil, expressed as a percentage of the ovendry

weight, after the gravitational, or free, water has

drained away; the field moisture content 2 or 3

days after a soaking rain; also called normal field

capacity, normal moisture capacity, or capillary

capacity.

Fine textured soil. Sandy clay, silty clay, or clay.

porosity and content of organic matter and low or

moderate in clay but high in silt or very fine sand.

A fragipan appears cemented and restricts roots.

When dry, it is hard or very hard and has a higher

bulk density than the horizon or horizons above.

When moist, it tends to rupture suddenly under

pressure rather than to deform slowly.

especially to the processes or soil-forming factors

responsible for the formation of the solum, or true

soil, from the unconsolidated parent material.

clay to sand derived from glaciers and deposited

in glacial lakes mainly by glacial meltwater. Many

deposits are interbedded or laminated.

Green manure crop (agronomy). A soil-improving

crop grown to be plowed under in an early stage

of maturity or soon after maturity.

Ground water. Water filling all the unblocked pores of

the material below the water table.

Gully. A miniature valley with steep sides cut by

running water and through which water ordinarily

runs only after rainfall. The distinction between a

gully and a rill is one of depth. A gully generally is

an obstacle to farm machinery and is too deep to

be obliterated by ordinary tillage; a rill is of lesser

depth and can be smoothed over by ordinary

tillage.

Hard bedrock. Bedrock that cannot be excavated

except by blasting or by the use of special

equipment that is not commonly used in

construction.

Hardpan. A hardened or cemented soil horizon, or

layer. The soil material is sandy, loamy, or clayey

and is cemented by iron oxide, silica, calcium

carbonate, or other substance.

Head out. To form a flower head.

Head slope. A geomorphic component of hills

consisting of a laterally concave area of a hillside,

especially at the head of a drainageway. The

overland waterflow is converging.

Hemic soil material (mucky peat). Organic soil

material intermediate in degree of decomposition

between the less decomposed fibric material and

the more decomposed sapric material.

High-residue crops. Such crops as small grain and

corn used for grain. If properly managed, residue

from these crops can be used to control erosion

until the next crop in the rotation is established.

These crops return large amounts of organic

matter to the soil.

Hill. A natural elevation of the land surface, rising as

much as 1,000 feet above surrounding lowlands,

commonly of limited summit area and having a

well defined outline; hillsides generally have

slopes of more than 15 percent. The distinction

between a hill and a mountain is arbitrary and is

dependent on local usage.

Horizon, soil. A layer of soil, approximately parallel to

the surface, having distinct characteristics

produced by soil-forming processes. In the

identification of soil horizons, an uppercase letter

represents the major horizons. Numbers or

lowercase letters that follow represent

subdivisions of the major horizons. An explanation
166 Soil Survey of

of the subdivisions is given in the “Soil Survey

Manual.” The major horizons of mineral soil are as

follows:

O horizon.—An organic layer of fresh and

decaying plant residue.

A horizon.—The mineral horizon at or near the

surface in which an accumulation of humified

organic matter is mixed with the mineral material.

Also, a plowed surface horizon, most of which was

originally part of a B horizon.

E horizon.—The mineral horizon in which the main

feature is loss of silicate clay, iron, aluminum, or

some combination of these.

B horizon.—The mineral horizon below an A

horizon. The B horizon is in part a layer of

transition from the overlying A to the underlying C

horizon. The B horizon also has distinctive

characteristics, such as (1) accumulation of clay,

sesquioxides, humus, or a combination of these;

(2) prismatic or blocky structure; (3) redder or

browner colors than those in the A horizon; or (4)

a combination of these.

C horizon.—The mineral horizon or layer,

excluding indurated bedrock, that is little affected

by soil-forming processes and does not have the

properties typical of the overlying soil material.

The material of a C horizon may be either like or

unlike that in which the solum formed. If the

material is known to differ from that in the solum,

an Arabic numeral, commonly a 2, precedes the

letter C.

Cr horizon.—Soft, consolidated bedrock beneath

the soil.

R layer.—Consolidated bedrock beneath the soil.

The bedrock commonly underlies a C horizon, but

it can be directly below an A or a B horizon.

Humus. The well decomposed, more or less stable

part of the organic matter in mineral soils.

Hydrologic soil groups. Refers to soils grouped

according to their runoff potential. The soil

properties that influence this potential are those

that affect the minimum rate of water infiltration on

a bare soil during periods after prolonged wetting

when the soil is not frozen. These properties are

depth to a seasonal high water table, the

infiltration rate and permeability after prolonged

wetting, and depth to a very slowly permeable

layer. The slope and the kind of plant cover are not

considered but are separate factors in predicting

runoff.

limited by the infiltration capacity of the soil or the

rate at which water is applied at the surface.

Intake rate. The average rate of water entering the

soil under irrigation. Most soils have a fast initial

rate; the rate decreases with application time.

constant but is a variable depending on the net

irrigation application. The rate of water intake, in

inches per hour, is expressed as follows:

profile are commonly gentle and linear and are

constructional surfaces forming the lower part of a

hillslope continuum that grades to valley or closeddepression floors.

Topsoil. The upper part of the soil, which is the most

favorable material for plant growth. It is ordinarily

rich in organic matter and is used to topdress

roadbanks, lawns, and land affected by mining.

moisture content of soil, on an ovendry basis, at

which a plant (specifically a sunflower) wilts so

much that it does not recover when placed in a

humid, dark chamber.

Table 6.--Land Capability and Yields per Acre of Crops and Pasture

(Yields are those that can be expected under a high level of nonirrigated management and are

 a mean value of the major soil components within the map unit. Absence of a yield indicates

 that the soil is not suited to the crop or the crop generally is not grown on the soil.)

("Water table," "flooding," and such terms as "perched," "apparent," "occasional," and "brief" are

 explained in the text. Estimates of the frequency of flooding apply to the whole year rather than to

 indivudual months. The symbol > means more than. Absence of an entry indicates that the feature is

 not a concern or that data were not estimated.)
