This series consists of verb deep, excessively drained soils forvmd in sandU ester deposited glac�al outwsh mnter�als. Theo are nearluU level to strong[U sloping soils on glacioflu�/�at terraces, deltas and outwash plains. The soils fora ed in thic.zz deposits of sand derwed v-ainluU from granite, gneiss and ctuartztte, but in places containing materials frovw schist and sandstone. The sand is poor[U graded; mediuvu. sand is generallU dominant and toupicallU contains little or no gravel. TUpicatIU,these soils have a dariz brown loamU sand surface lauoer7 inches tKzc".

This soil wrap unit consists of relativelo recenttU formed, modemtetuo well drained and well drained, flooc(plain soils. Fluvciquents are tUpicalluU found in disturbed landscapes on floodplains where two or more feet of the original soil surface has been fuued over or excavated. most areas of Fluvaciuents flood each Uear for short peribods, mna ntuU to the sprang. The Fluvaa(uents soil mcipptng unit is a w isceltaneous unit which includes a large varetU of soil vwaterials. COV1n MOA locations of Fluvactuents include disturbed areas for comvvunitlJi develop-eat and sand and gravel operations situated inthe floodplains of rivers and vuajorstreaws. Any accompanying soil logs and soil maps, and the on-site soil investigation narrative are in accordance with the taxonomic classification of the National Cooperative Soil Survey of the USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service, and with the Connecticut Soil Legend (DEP Bulletin No.5, 1983), as amended by USDA-NRCS. Jurisdictional wetland boundaries were delineated pursuant to the Connecticut General Statutes (CGS Sections 22a-36 to 22a-45), as amended. The site investigation was conducted and/or reviewed by the undersigned Registered Soil Scientist(s) [registered with the Society of Soil Scientists of Southern New England(SSSSNE)in accordance with the standards of the Federal Office of Personnel Management].
