Tunkhannock soils formed in outwash and have more than 35 percent rock fragments in the control section. Oquaga is 20 to 40 inches deep to bedrock. Barbour is an alluvial soil and has a contrasting sand and gravel substratum within 40 inches. Cadosia soils average more than 35 percent rock fragments in the control section. The potential for surface runoff is negligible to very high.
