Trac.t B is to be served by a werl of which the permit #116g10is attached. Tract a is to be served by a welr the permit ofwhich has been requested from the Coloiado State pivision ofI{ater Resources. Mr. staLrman of the Division of water Resourceshas stated a permit wouLd not be issued if the subdivision was notapproved. He asked that f send him a permi-t application along witha copy of my submittar in order that the Division can replyto tlr" county as to the possiblity of issuing this permit.-rlishas been done and r am waiting for the Divisions relty. Tract B is currently served by an individual septic system. TractA is proposed to be served by an individuar septic syiten-bothare to be of the non-evaporative type. There are no signifi.cantman-made features on this property otherthan the existl,rg trailer, power rines, and the storage yirdmaintained by Kuchler .rwater l{elrs company.

AIl improvements have been placed high enough so as not to be affected by possible flood waters which wouLd be carried in rather large drainage swales. These large swales being caused by natural erosion of the very porous ground materials. Soil conservation naps are attached herewith. There appears to be no radiation hazard in the area, has been no history of radiation on this site, and is no foreseeable potentail radiation hazard to this subdivision. ,4 sincerely,-A-ZtuZ-- Glen ilones. \!v-"(-'--:\ q it.\ /a ( \ 9 (o Z,e ( I '-s.-'e1 I Y-.,/' ) \o \ -.*-l*-.-i"' )'\--aAEi ..<,7-':'' rl .\ It RICHARD D.

Re1ief is noderately steep to very steeply sloping on slope grad- ients ranging fron 1) to l0 percent. This broadly defined unit occurs intermittently throughout the soil survey area. The Torriorthents make up about 4l percent of this unit.

The soils are shallow to noderately deep, and generally are clayey to loamy in texbure with a variable amowtt of gravel, cobble, and stone throughout. The surface is normally stone covered due to weathering of overlying bedrock exposures being carried down slope by gravity. Basaltic stone and cobbles oceur on the surface in the area south of the Colorado River in the soil survey area. The Camborthids make up about 20 percent of this unit. They occur on the moderately steep lor.rer toe slopes and concave open areas of the foothills and mountain slopes.

These soils are very scattered occurring internittently throughout this irnit and make up I0 to 20 percent of this unit. This unit has a fair livestock grazing varue. The native vege- tation includes wheatgrasses, bluegrasses, rndian ricegrass, needle- grasses, bitterbrush, mountainmahogany, big sagebrush, and an over- story of pinyon pine and juniper trees. The area is also used for wildlife and recreational purposes. Most of this unit is a prine deer wintering area. Other game animars such as rabbits, coyotes, and a few eIk use this for food. and protective cover. The anount of stone on the surface and the steepness of slopes make this unit unsuited for cropland. sorne areas tnay be reseeded to pasture by broadcast seeding.

Arvada soil is found on the moderately sloping areas and Ildefonso soil is on the steeper portion of the landscape. Permeability of lhe Nihill soil is rapid. Effective rooting depth is 30 to llO inches. Available water capacity is l-ow. Surface runoff is slow and the erosion hazard is high.

When Lhe range is in poor condition, undesirable weeds and annual plants are numerous. Proper grazing management maintains and improveS range condiLion. Seeding is a good practice on slopes of less ihan 15 percent if the range is in poor condition. Careful selection of areas is necessary because of stoniness and shallow depth to bedrock. Suitable plants for seeding are cresLed wheatgrass, wesLern wheatgrass, and Russian wildrye. For successful seedings, a good practice is to prepare a seedbed and dri1l the seed. A reduction in brush on slopes less than 15 pereent improves deteriorated sites. Care is required not to destroy desirable shrubs ' Wild1ife using this soil for habitat include mule deer, cotton- tail rabbit,, chukar, and squirrel. The potential community development of Nihil1 soil is limited by steep slopes, stone and channery content. Community sewage facilities are needed if population density increases.
