The Omega soils commonly are by far the major soil in their area of occurrence. The Nemdaji and Newson soils which formed in similar sediments are assoicated in some places. The Nemadji soils are somewhat poorly drained and the Newson soils are poorly drained. They are on lower lying terrain. Also, organic soils such as Dawson , Loxley , and Greenwood are associated in some places.
Surface runoff is very low to high.
Permeability is rapid. Most of these soils are forested. A few areas are cleared and are cropped to forage crops or to special crops such as potatoes. Native vegetation primarily is coniferous forest. Jack pine and red pine were dominant.
