` 4 Resufts <br /> Xerofluvents and Xerothents in the slightly lower landscape positions. Included areas <br /> make up about 15 percent of the total acreage. These inclusions are not listed as <br /> hydric by NRCS (2004). Permeability is moderately rapid in the Cortina soil. <br /> Available water capacity is low. Runoff is slow, and the hazard of water erosion is <br /> slight. <br /> • Vernalis-Zacharias complex,zero to 2 percent slopes, is not listed as hydric by <br /> NRCS (2004). The Vernalis soil is a very deep, well-drained,nearly level soil on <br /> alluvial fans. It formed in alluvium derived from mixed rock sources. In a typical <br /> profile,the surface layer is brown clay loam about 20 inches thick. The subsoil to a <br /> �,• depth of about 62 inches is yellowish-brown and light yellowish-brown clay loam. <br /> The Zacharias soil is also a very deep, well-drained, nearly level soil on alluvial fans. <br /> It formed in alluvium from mixed rock sources. In a typical profile, the surface layer <br /> is brown clay loam about 14 inches thick. The subsoil to a depth of 66 inches is <br /> yellowish-brown clay loam. In some areas, the surface layer is silty clay loam. The <br /> Vemalis soil makes up about 45 percent of the total acreage, while the Zacharias soil <br /> makes up about 40 percent of the total acreage. Included in this unit are small areas <br /> 6• of Capay soils on the lower positions and Stomar soils on slightly higher positions. <br /> Included areas make up about 15 percent of the total acreage. These inclusions are <br /> not listed as hydric by NRCS (2004). Permeability is moderately slow in both the <br /> �• Vemalis and Zacharias soils. Available water capacity is high. Runoff is negligible to <br /> low,and the hazard of water erosion is slight. <br /> • Vernalis clay loam,zero to 2 percent slopes, is not listed as hydric by NRCS <br /> (2004). This very deep, well-drained, nearly level soil is on alluvial fans. It formed in <br /> alluvium derived from mixed rock sources. In a typical profile, the upper part of the <br /> surface layer is brown clay loam about 9 inches thick. The lower part of the surface <br /> layer and the upper part of the subsoil are grayish-brown and brown clay loam and <br /> pale brown loam about 38 inches thick. The lower part of the subsoil to a depth of <br /> 60 inches is pale brown, fine sandy loam. The soil is calcareous between depths of 27 <br /> and 60 inches. In some areas,the surface layer is silty clay loam. Included in this unit <br /> are small areas of Manteca and Merritt soils in landscape positions similar to those of <br /> the Veritas soil and Tinnin soils on the slightly higher parts of the landscape. Also <br /> r included, in the slightly lower landscape positions, are small areas of saline-sodic <br /> Veritas soils. Included areas make up about 15 percent of the total acreage. These <br /> inclusions are not listed as hydric by NRCS (2004).Permeability is moderately rapid <br /> V in the Veritas soil. Available water capacity is moderate. Runoff is slow, and the <br /> hazard of water erosion is slight. <br /> • Vernalis loam,zero to 2 percent slopes,is not listed as hydric by NRCS(2004). <br /> This very deep, well-drained,nearly level soil is on alluvial fans. It formed in <br /> alluvium derived from mixed rock sources. In a typical profile, the surface layer is <br /> _ brown loam about 20 inches thick. The subsoil to a depth of about 62 inches is <br /> yellowish-brown and light yellowish-brown clay loam. In some areas,the surface <br /> layer is clay loam. Included in this unit are small areas of Capay soils in concave <br /> landscape positions and Stomar and Zacharias soils on the slightly higher parts of the <br /> landscape. Included areas make up about 15 percent of the total acreage. These <br /> inclusions are not listed as hydric by NRCS (2004).Permeability is moderately rapid <br /> in the Veritas soil. Available water capacity is high. Runoff is negligible to low,and <br /> the hazard of water erosion is slight. <br /> VemaXs Quarry Mining and Redamafion Project 4-3 ESA 1203016 <br /> WeO nd Defneatlon Repoli February 2006 <br /> r <br />
