I. GENERAL LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
A. LOCATION AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Mountain View Community Church site (referred herein as “the site”) exists as a portion of Tract A, Seven Lakes Business
Park P.U.D, located in the southwest quarter of Section 17, T7N, R698W of the 6th P.M., City of Fort Collins, Larimer County,
Colorado. The property, consisting of approximately 2.90 acres, is located north of East Prospect Road and east of South
Timberline Road. The site currently exists as a commercial property with adjacent parking. The proposed Mountain View
Community Church modified site improvements are limited to 0.56 acres of disturbed area.
The property is bounded by the Spring Creek Trail to the north and west, and commercial properties to the south and east.
Stormwater on the site currently drains in several directions away from the existing building, however, all runoff is ultimately
collected by storm sewer infrastructure and conveyed to the Cattail Chorus Natural Area ponds to the north or a drainage
channel to the east of the site. Ultimately both areas drain to the Cache La Poudre River, which is approximately 2000 feet
east of the site.
The proposed improvements to the site consist of reconstructing a portion of the building along with associated landscaping,
walks, and parking around the perimeter of the building. Additionally, water quality measures are proposed with the
reconstruction to improve drainage function and water quality.

B. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
The project site currently exists as a fully developed commercial lot, including concrete and asphalt pavement, sidewalks,
rooftop, and landscaping, comprising of an existing imperviousness of 65.3%. In its existing condition, by means of sheet flow,
concrete pans, curb and gutter, inlets, and storm sewer, the site ultimately drains off-site to Cattail Chorus Natural Area ponds
north the site or to a drainage channel to the east.
Below are summaries of key components of the site in its existing conditions.
Land Use - The site’s current land use is commercial.
Ground Cover - The site exists as a commercial development with concrete and asphalt pavement, sidewalk, rooftop,
and surrounding grass landscaping. The grass cover is good (ie., heavy or dense cover with nearly all ground surfaces
protected by vegetation).
Existing Topography – The site slopes in a multitude of directions away from the existing on-site building, however,
runoff ultimately drains north to an existing downstream pond associated with the Cattail Chorus Natural Area.
Grades – In general, the western portion of the site is sloped westerly and northerly at approximately 1.0% to 5.0%;
the southern and eastern portions of the site are sloped easterly and northerly at approximately 1.0% to 5.0%. The
northern portion of the side drains northerly off-site.
Soil Type - The USDA’s Web Soil Survey shows that the site consists largely of a “Type C” soil, namely Loveland clay
loam (0 to 1% slopes). The Web Soil Survey also indicates the site is comprised of Table Mountain loam (0 to 1%
slopes), a “Type B” soil. The on-site soils provide moderate infiltration and are suitable for development.
Utilities – The following dry utility lines run along the south side of the site: gas, electric, cable TV, fiber optic. Water
mains are also present on the south side of the site within West Prospect Road. A recently constructed sanitary
sewer service exists at the northwest portion of the site.
Drainage Features and Storm Sewer – An off-site pond exists north of the site. On-site and off-site storm sewer
infrastructure conveys runoff to the mentioned downstream pond.
C. FLOODPLAINS
The existing site is within the Spring Creek
Floodplain which is a FEMA designated 100-
year floodplain and floodway. In addition, the
existing site and building is located within the
Spring Creek moderate risk floodplain. The
FEMA FIRM Panel # is 08069C0983H effective
5/2/2012. A Letter of Map Amendment
(LOMA) Determination Document #19-08-
0473A dated 3/27/2019 removed the building
from the 100-year floodplain. The current
FEMA FIRM Map along with the LOMA is
included in the appendix.
The proposed building will be used as a place of
Worship.

II. DRAINAGE BASINS AND SUB-BASINS
A. MAJOR BASIN DESCRIPTION
The existing site is located within both the Spring Creek and Cache La Poudre River master drainage basins. The northern
portion of the site drains downstream within the Spring Creek Basin, while the southern portion of the site drains east,
ultimately conveyed to the Cache La Poudre River. No known master planning improvements are associated with or adjacent
to the site.
B. SUB-BASIN DESCRIPTION
The site, along with the rest of Tract A, is included within the Seven Lakes Business Park P.U.D completed by Parsons &
Associates in January 1982. A Site Drainage and Grading Plan associated with this P.U.D is included in the Appendix . A
drainage report could not be located. The approved P.U.D provides context for how the overall Tract A portion of the Seven
Lakes Business Park was designed to drain and is somewhat similar to existing drainage patterns. The site exists within Basins
A3 and B of the mentioned Site Drainage and Grading Plan. Basin A3 drains north within the Spring Creek drainage basin;
Basin B drains south and east within the Cache La Poudre drainage basin. More recent drainage reports and letters related to
the Seven Lakes Business Park are recorded with the City of Fort Collins, however, documents specifically related to this site
are not recorded.
III. DRAINAGE DESIGN CRITERIA
A. REGULATIONS
The design criteria for this study are directly from the City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design Crit eria and Construction
Standards Manual and the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manuals Volumes 2, and 3 (referred to herein as USDCM).
B. DIRECTLY CONNECTED IMPERVIOUS AREA (DCIA)
With the adoption of the USDCM, the City has also adopted the “Four Step Process ” that is recommended in Volume 3 of
the USDCM in selecting structural BMPs for the redeveloping urban areas. The following portions of this summary describe
each step and how it has been utilized for this project:
Step 1 – Employ Runoff Reduction Practices
The objective of this step is to reduce runoff peaks and volumes and to employ the technique of “minimizing directly
connected impervious areas” (MDCIA). This project accomplishes this by:
Routing the roof and pavement flows through bio retention facilities and vegetated buffers to increase the time of
concentration, promote infiltration and provide water quality.
Step 2 – Provide Water Quality Capture Volume (WQCV)
The objective of providing WQCV is to reduce the sediment load and other pollutants that exit the site. For this project
WQCV is provided within the bioretention facilities.
Step 3 – Stabilize Drainageways
The site is adjacent to Spring Creek and the use of LID will help slow runoff from the site and benefit the stabilization of the
Spring Creek drainageway. In addition, this project will pay stormwater development and stormwater utility fees which the
City uses, in part, to maintain the stability of the City drainageway systems.
Step 4 – Consider Need for Site Specific and Source Control BMPs
Site specific and source control BMPs are generally considered for large industrial and commercial sites. The
redevelopment of the existing site will include multiple site specific and source controls, including:
• Dedicated maintenance personnel providing landscape maintenance and snow and ice management.

C. HYDROLOGICAL CRITERIA
City of Fort Collins Rainfall Intensity-Duration-Frequency Curves, provided by Figure RA -16 of the Fort Collins Stormwater
Criteria Manual, are utilized for all hydrologic computations related to the site in its existing/historic and proposed condi tions.
Since this site is relatively small and does not have complex drainage basins, t he peak flow rates for design points have been
calculated based on the Rational Method as described in the USDCM and the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual
(FCSCM) with storm duration set equal to the time of concentration for each sub-basin. This method was used to analyze the
developed runoff from the 10-year (minor) and the 100-year (major) storm events. The Rational Method is widely accepted
for drainage design involving small drainage areas (less than 160 acres) and short time of concentrations. Runoff coefficients
are assumed based on impervious area and are given in the Appendices.
D. HYDRAULIC CRITERIA
The developed site will convey runoff to existing design points via swales, concrete pans, and pipes. The City of Fort Collins
Stormwater Criteria Manual (FCSCM) and USDCM are referenced for all hydraulic calculations. In addition, the following
computer programs are utilized:
• Storm Sewer Extension for AutoCAD Civil3D
• Hydraflow Express Extension for AutoCAD Civil3D
• UD-Inlet by UDFCD
Drainage conveyance facility capacities proposed with the development project, including swales and bioretention ponds,
are designed in accordance with criteria outlined in the FCSCM and/or the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District’s Urban
Storm Drainage Criteria Manual (UDFCD).
E. MODIFICATIONS OF CRITERIA
A variance was approved for storm water quality requirements. The site was unable to meet City of Fort Collins stormwater
requirements due to existing site constraints further documented in the approved variance included with Appendix C.
IV. DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN
A. GENERAL CONCEPT
Developed runoff is designed to largely maintain existing drainage patterns. Existing conveyance methods include sheet flow,
concrete pans, curb and gutter, inlets, an d storm sewer that ultimately drain runoff off-site to Cattail Chorus Natural Area
ponds north the site. Runoff that drains off-site to the east is ultimately conveyed to the Cache La Poudre River by means of
existing storm sewer infrastructure and drainage swales related to Tract B and Tract C of the Seven Lakes Business Park. Per
City standards, stormwater detention is not being provided because the increase in impervious surfaces is less than 1,000
square-feet. Per City standards, water quality and low impact development (LID) is being proposed with project to mitigate
the impervious areas that are being modified with the development. This includes a proposed bioretention pond on the
north side of the building and a new storm drain system that conveys ru noff to the vegetative buffer on the west side of the
property.
B. SPECIFIC DETAILS
Hydrology
Site improvements include an increase of approximately 601-sf of additional impervious area relative to existing conditions.
Due to the minimal impacts related to the site’s overall imperviousness (i.e. less than 1,000 sf), the proposed improvements
are not expected to negatively impact the existing nearby hydraulic features. The table on the following page summarizes
the hydrologic impact associated with the proposed site improvements relative to existing conditions. Refer to the drainage
exhibits and hydrology calculations attached for additional information.

TABLE 1 - HYDROLOGIC SUMMARY
For purposes of Low Impact Development (LID) calculations, hydrology calculations related to the “modified” site area (limite d
to 0.56 acres of site modifications) are included in Appendix B.
On-site Basins
The following basins provide drainage delineations for the site in its improved condition . Note that basin designations are not
bound by property lines; the site receives additional off-site runoff in its existing condition. Refer to Appendix A for hydrology
computations and Appendix B for calculations related to Water Quality, Low Impact Development, and other hydraulic
features.
Basin B
Sub-basins B1-B2 represent on-site and off-site drainage basins where runoff is captured and conveyed to an on-site
vegetative buffer area. These basins consist of roofs, concrete and asphalt paving, and landscaping. Sub-basin B1 largely
consists of a parking lot, and Basin B2 consists solely of roof area. Runoff within sub-basin B1 is conveyed to the vegetative
buffer via pans, curb and storm sewer infrastructure, while runoff within sub-basin B2 is conveyed to the vegetative buffer
via roof drains/storm sewer. The storm sewer and inlets are designed to convey the 2-year storm to the vegetative buffer
area. In a major storm event larger than the 2-year storm event, stormwater will continue northeast along the asphalt path
toward the Spring Creek trail.
Basin C
Sub-basin C1 is an on-site basin that consists of modified roof area. Similar to existing conditions, runoff is conveyed to the
access drive immediately south of the existing building. This runoff drains east to an existing, o ff-site inlet, and ultimately to
the Cache La Poudre River.
Stormwater Quality
Stormwater quality is required to be provided for the total new or modified impervious area on the site. The scope of the
MVCC site improvements do not include extensive parking lot work. City staff determined that the permeable paver
requirement does not apply to this project. The project is required to provide a minimum of 50% LID treatment, for all new
or modified impervious areas, using any approved LID method. The remaining 50% can be treated with LID or ‘standard’
water quality methods. A variance was approved to provide less than the required stormwater quality due to the existing
site constraints. See Appendix C for approved variance.

WATER QUALITY REQUIRED:
TOTAL NEW OR MODIFIED IMPERVIOUS AREA = 18,850 SF
REQUIRED LID WQ TREATMENT = 9,425 SF (50% MIN)
WATER QUALITY PROVIDED:
VEGETATIVE BUFFER (LID WQ) FOR BASINS B1 & B2 = 11,198 SF (limited to 1:1 run-on ratio)
TOTAL IMPERVIOUS AREA TREATED = 11,198 SF (Approved Variance)
I. Vegetated Buffer
A vegetated buffer with an approximate area of 11,198-sf is utilized for water quality purposes with the site
improvements. This buffer treats basins B1 and B2 (see drainage plan attached) which has a total impervious area
of 29,332 sf. However, the water quality approved for LID credit is limited to the size of the vegetative buffer per
City standards.
This buffer is designed to improve stormwater runoff quality by straining sediment and promoting infiltration. To
distribute the concentrated flows of this buffer, an 84 lf level spreader is being provided downstream of the
concentrated flows. Refer to Appendix B for Grass Buffer calculations and minimum length of the level spreader.
Low Impact Development (LID)
In December of 2015, Fort Collins City Council adopted the revised Low Impact Development (LID) policy and criteria which
requires developments within City limits to meet certain enhanced stormwater treatment requirements in addition to more
standard treatment techniques. The scope of the MVCC site improvements do not include extensive parking lot disturbance
or construction. City of Fort Collins staff determined that the permeable paver requirement does not apply to this project.
The project is required to provide a minimum 50% LID treatment, for all new or modified impervious area, using any approved
LID method. The remaining 50% can be treated with LID or standard water quality methods.
The following measures are implemented with this proposed development:
I. Vegetative Buffer
A vegetated buffer with an approximate area of 11,198-sf is utilized for water quality purposes with the site
improvements. The inclusion of the vegetative buffer measures support that more than 50% of the modified site
area requiring the use of LID treatment is provided with the site improvements. Refer to Appendix B for calculations.
Detention
Detention is not being provided with the redevelopment of the site because the net increase in impervious surfaces is less
than 1,000 square-feet.
Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
In order for physical stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) to be effective, proper maintenance is essential.
Maintenance includes both routinely scheduled activities, as well as non -routine repairs that may be required after large
storms, or as a result of other unforeseen problems. Standard Operating Procedures shou ld clearly identify BMP maintenance
responsibility. BMP maintenance is typically the responsibility of the entity owning the BMP.
Identifying who is responsible for maintenance of BMPs and ensuring that an adequate budget is allocated for maintenance
is critical to the long-term success of BMPs. Maintenance responsibility may be assigned either publicly or privately. For this
project, the privately owned BMPs including grass swales and the bioretention pond, are to be maintained by the property
owner.

Storm Sewer
There are multiple storm sewers, roof drains and underdrains for the bioretention ponds proposed with the site
improvements. All storm sewers will be private and are typically sized to accommodate the flows from the 100-year storm
event. Storm system B is only sized to accommodate the flows from the 2-year storm event although all pipe upstream of
the Type C inlet is also able to accommodate the 100-year storm event. Hydraulic computations of these systems are included
in Appendix B.
Inlets
There are multiple inlets proposed with the site improvements. Inlets are utilized to support the proposed site modifications
in addition to existing site drainage insufficiencies . A Type 13 inlet associated with Basin B1 is proposed with site
improvements. Due to existing site constraints and the desire to only capture minor flows for water quality purposes , this
inlet is limited to capturing 1.5-cfs – additional runoff related to Basin B1 will continue to drain downstream in accordance
with existing drainage patterns. Other proposed inlets are designed to convey the 100-year storm event. Hydraulic
computations of these systems are included in Appendix B.
V. EROSION CONTROL
Erosion control, both temporary and permanent, is a vital part of any development project. For this project, the site
disturbance is less than 1 acre; therefore, a CDPHE Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) is not required. However,
comprehensive erosion control measures are included with the site improvements. Refer to the Utility Plans for additional
information. At a minimum, the following temporary BMP’s will be installed and maintained to control on -site erosion and
prevent sediment from traveling off-site during construction:
• Silt Fence – a woven synthetic fabric that filters runoff. The silt fence is a temporary barrier that is placed at the base
of a disturbed area.
• Vehicle Tracking Control – a stabilized stone pad located at points of ingress and egress on a construction site. The
stone pad is designed to reduce the amount of mud transported onto public roads by construction traffic.
• Inlet Protection – acts as a sediment filter. It is a temporary BMP and requires proper installation and maintenance
to ensure their performance.
• Straw Wattles – wattles act as a sediment filter in swales around inlets. They are a temporary BMP and require
proper installation and maintenance to ensure their performance.
The contractor shall store all construction materials and equipment and shall provide maintenance and fueling of equipment
in confined areas on-site from which runoff will be contained and filtered. Temporary Best Management Practices (BMP’s)
will be inspected by the contractor at a minimum of once every two weeks and after each significant storm event.
VI. CONCLUSIONS
A. COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS
Storm drainage calculations have followed the guidelines provided by the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manuals Volumes
1, 2 and 3 and the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual.
B. DRAINAGE CONCEPT
The drainage system has been designed to convey the runoff to the designated design points and the existing public
infrastructure in an effective, safe manner. No negative impacts are anticipated to the City of Fort Collins Master Drainage
Plan or to downstream properties or infrastructure due to the proposed improvements.
C. STORMWATER QUALITY
A vegetated buffer is being provided to meet some of the water quality needs of the site. An approved variance is included
in Appendix C due to an inability to meet all City of Fort Collins water quality requirements.

Alternative Compliance/Variance Application Supplemental Sheet
What hardship prevents this site from meeting the requirement?
This is an existing developed site that has many constraints that make development of more typical LID
types such as permeable pavement, bioretention, sand filters, and underground filtration very difficult
to include with this development. These constraints include the following:
• Existing large trees with large root zones that restrict construction area of LID.
• No storm sewer or shallow storm sewer that restrict the locations of LID with an underdrain.
• Adjacent Spring Creek trail, Natural Area pond and buffer, wetlands, and floodway that all limit
the location of construction in proximity to those natural features.
• Constructing a new storm outlet pipe into a City of Fort Collins Natural Area is an arduous
process that requires that all other alternatives be exhausted. This alternative was looked at
early in the process.
• There is limited space north of the building in the only location with an existing viable storm
sewer outlet. This location has steep side slopes that would require a large wall to construct a
bioretention facility and the outlet pipe is still near existing large trees.
What alternative is proposed for the site?
A vegetative buffer to meet standard water quality and LID requirements is being proposed. This is an
existing well-established native grass area on the northwest portion of the site that we are proposing to
utilize as a vegetative buffer. We are redirecting the runoff from almost 30,000 square feet of
pavement and roof areas to drain across this vegetative buffer. We believe this truly meets the intent of
Low Impact Development and the Key LID techniques listed in Ch. 7, Section 2 because it “Conserves
Existing Amenities”, “Minimizes Impacts”, and “Minimizes Directly Connected Impervious Areas”.
A vegetative buffer is allowed within Section 6.7 to meet the water quality and LID requirements.
However, we cannot meet all the Standard Design Criteria for Vegetative Buffers shown in Figure 6.7-1
including minimum cross slope of 2%, soil amendments, 1:1 run-on ratio, and soil types. We are
proposing using Urban Drainage methodology to calculate the effectiveness of the Vegetated Buffer and
it meets those requirements. By City of Fort Collins requirements, the site is required to provide
stormwater quality treatment for 18,850 square feet of impervious area. The 1:1 ratio requirement
limits the amount of treated area to the area of the vegetative buffer which is approximately 11,200
square feet as measured in the direction of the stormwater flow from the level spreader.

eLOMA DETERMINATION
This document provides the Federal Emergency Management Agency's determination regarding a request for a Letter of Map Amendment for the property
described above. Using the information submitted and the effective National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) map, we have determined that the structure(s) on
the property(ies) is/are not located in the SFHA, an area inundated by the flood having a 1-percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year
(base flood). This document amends the effective NFIP map to remove the subject property from the SFHA located on the effective NFIP map; therefore, the
Federal mandatory flood insurance requirement does not apply. However, the lender has the option to continue the flood insurance requirement to protect its
financial risk on the loan. A Preferred Risk Policy (PRP) is available for buildings located outside the SFHA. Information about the PRP and how one can apply is
enclosed.
This determination is based on the flood data presently available. If there are any errors on this eLOMA Determination Letter that cause FEMA to rescind and /or
nullify the determination the property owner should consult the Licensed Professional that submitted this eLOMA. The enclosed documents provide additional
information regarding this determination. If you have any questions about this document, please contact the FEMA Map Assistance Center toll free at (877)

Structure Removal:
The following considerations may or may not apply to the determination for your Structure:
PORTIONS OF THE PROPERTY REMAIN IN THE SFHA and/or FLOODWAY - Portions of this property,
but not the subject of the Determination document, may remain in the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA)
and/or the regulatory floodway for the flooding source indicated on the Determination Document. The NFIP
regulatory floodway is the area that must remain unobstructed in order to prevent unacceptable increases in
base flood elevations. Therefore, no construction may take place in an NFIP regulatory floodway that may
cause an increase in the base flood elevation. Therefore, any future construction or substantial improvement
on the property remains subject to Federal, State /Commonwealth, and local regulations for floodplain
management. The NFIP regulatory floodway is provided to the community as a tool to regulate floodplain
development. Modifications to the NFIP regulatory floodway must be accepted by both the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) and the community involved. Appropriate community actions are defined in
Paragraph 60.3(d) of the NFIP regulations. Any proposed revision to the NFIP regulatory floodway must be
submitted to FEMA by community officials. The community should contact either the Regional Director (for
those communities in Regions I -IV, and VI-X), or the Regional Engineer (for those communities in Region V) for
guidance on the data which must be submitted for a revision to the NFIP regulatory floodway. Contact
information for each regional office can be obtained by calling the FEMA Map Assistance Center toll free at
(877) 336-2627 (877-FEMA MAP) or from our web site at https://www.fema.gov/regional-contact-information
STUDY UNDERWAY - This determination is based on the flood data presently available. However, the
Federal Emergency Management Agency may be currently revising the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP) map for the community. New flood data could be generated that may affect this property. If a new NFIP
map is issued it will supersede this determination. The Federal requirement for the purchase of flood insurance
will then be based on the newly revised NFIP map.
EXTRATERRITORIAL JURISDICTION - The subject of the determination is shown on the National Flood
Insurance Program map and may be located in an Extraterritorial Jurisdiction area for the community indicated
on the Determination Document.

GREAT LAKES - The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has based this determination on
elevation data which is published in the current Flood Insurance Study for the community. However, the
elevations established in the U .S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) reports on the Great Lakes are the best
available data known to us. If in the future there are any subsequent map revisions to the National Flood
Insurance Program map and the USACE reports remain the best available data known, FEMA will use those
elevations for any such revisions. Further, be advised that the elevations on the Flood Insurance Rate Map
(FIRM) may only reflect the Stillwater elevation for the lake and may not account for the effects of wind driven
waves or wave run-up. On-site conditions such as wind speed, wind direction, fetch distance, water depth and
the slope of the beach or bluff may result in significant increases to the base flood elevation. Therefore, it is
strongly recommended that the requestor be aware of these circumstances and, if warranted, evaluate the
effects of wind driven waves along the shoreline of the property.
STATE AND LOCAL CONSIDERATIONS - Please note that this document does not override or supersede
any State or local procedural or substantive provisions which may apply to floodplain management
requirements associated with amendments to State or local floodplain zoning ordinances, maps, or State or
local procedures adopted under the National Flood Insurance Program.
COASTAL BARRIER RESOURCE SYSTEM - Based upon information provided to FEMA by the U .S. Fish
and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the subject property may be within a System Unit or an Otherwise Protected
Area (OPA) of the John H. Chafee Coastal Barrier Resource System (CBRS). Federal flood insurance is
generally not available within the CBRS for new construction or substantial improvements occurring after the
flood insurance prohibition date (which is generally tied to the date that the area was first established as either
a System Unit or OPA, but may differ in some cases). Other federal expenditures and financial assistance
(including certain types of disaster assistance) are also restricted within System Units of the CBRS. The
USFWS is the authoritative source for information regarding the CBRS. Additional information, including the
CBRS Mapper, can be found on the USFWS website at: https://www.fws.gov/cbra.

Preface
Soil surveys contain information that affects land use planning in survey areas.
They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information
about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for
many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban
planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers.
Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste
disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand,
protect, or enhance the environment.
Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose
special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil
properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions.
The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of
soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for
identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations.
Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area
planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some
cases. Examples include soil quality assessments (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/
portal/nrcs/main/soils/health/) and certain conservation and engineering
applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center
(https://offices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nrcs) or your NRCS State Soil
Scientist (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/soils/contactus/?
cid=nrcs142p2_053951).
Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are
seasonally wet or subject to flooding. 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.
The National Cooperative Soil Survey is 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 (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National
Cooperative Soil Survey.
Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available
through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.

How Soil Surveys Are Made
Soil surveys are made to provide information about the soils and miscellaneous
areas in a specific area. They include a description of the soils and miscellaneous
areas and their location on the landscape and tables that show soil properties and
limitations affecting various 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 observed and described many soil
profiles. A soil profile 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 or from the surface down to bedrock. The unconsolidated material is
devoid of roots and other living organisms and has not been changed by other
biological activity.
Currently, soils are mapped according to the boundaries of major land resource
areas (MLRAs). MLRAs are geographically associated land resource units that
share common characteristics related to physiography, geology, climate, water
resources, soils, biological resources, and land uses (USDA, 2006). Soil survey
areas typically consist of parts of one or more MLRA.
The soils and miscellaneous areas in a survey area occur 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 soil-vegetation-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
5
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.
The objective of soil mapping is not to delineate pure map unit components; the
objective is to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that
have similar use and management requirements. Each map unit is defined by a
unique combination of soil components and/or miscellaneous areas in predictable
proportions. Some components may be highly contrasting to the other components
of the map unit. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way
diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The delineation of such
landforms and landform segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, onsite
investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas.
Soil scientists make many field observations in the process of producing a soil map.
The frequency of observation is dependent upon several factors, including scale of
mapping, intensity of mapping, design of map units, complexity of the landscape,
and experience of the soil scientist. Observations are made to test and refine the
soil-landscape model and predictions and to verify the classification of the soils at
specific locations. Once the soil-landscape model is refined, a significantly smaller
number of measurements of individual soil properties are made and recorded.
These measurements may include field measurements, such as those for color,
depth to bedrock, and texture, and laboratory measurements, such as those for
content of sand, silt, clay, salt, and other components. Properties of each soil
typically vary from one point to another across the landscape.
Observations for map unit components are aggregated to develop ranges of
characteristics for the components. The aggregated values are presented. Direct
measurements do not exist for every property presented for every map unit
component. Values for some properties are estimated from combinations of other
properties.
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.

Map Unit Descriptions
The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the
soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area. The map unit descriptions, along
with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit.
A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more
major kinds of soil 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 minor
components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils.
Most minor 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, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a
particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties
and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different
management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. 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. If included in the database for a
given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit
descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor
components 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 minor components 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 landforms or
landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. The
Custom Soil Resource Report
11
delineation of such 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 and gives important soil
properties and qualities.
Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for
differences in texture of the surface layer, 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, slope, stoniness,
salinity, 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, Alpha
silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series.
Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas.
These map units are complexes, associations, 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. Alpha-Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example.
An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or
miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present
or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered
practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The
pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat
similar. Alpha-Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, 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 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. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil
material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example.
