Windsor,CT
Udorthents-Pits Complex,Gravelly This map unit is in the Connecticut Valley New
England and Eastern New York Upland, Southern Part New England and Eastern
New York Upland, Northern Part Major Land Resource Area.The mean annual
precipitation is 32 to 50 inches(813 to 1270 millimeters)and the average annual
' air temperature is 39 to 52 degrees F. (4 to 11 degrees C.)This map unit is 65
percent Udorthents soils, 25 percent Pits. 10 percent minor components.
Udorthents solls This component occurs on gravel pit and sand pit landforms.The
parent material consists of gravelly glaciofluvial deposits.The slope ranges from 0
to 35 percent and the runoff class is medium.The depth to a restrictive feature .
varies,but is commonly greater than 60 inches.The drainage class is typically well
drained.The slowest permeability within 60 inches is about 0,00 in/hr(moderately
slow),with about 9.0 inches(high)available water capacity.The weighted average
shrink-swell potential in 10 to 60 inches is about 1.4 LEP (low).The flooding
frequency for this component is none.The ponding hazard is none.The minimum
' depth to a seasonal water.table is greater than 60 inches. The maximum calcium
carbonate within 40 inches is none.The maximum amount of salinity in any layer
is about 0 mmhos/cm (nonsaline). The Nonirrigated Land Capability Class is 4e
Typical Profile:0 to 5 inches;loam 5 to 21 inches; gravelly loam 21 to 80 it'tches;
very gravelly sandy loam Pits Pits are open excavations from which the soil and
commonly underlying material have been removed, exposing either rock or other
material.The slope,ranges from 0 to 80 percent and the runoff class is high. The
Nonirrigated Land Capability Class is 8
