9.2.4 LISTING OF SOIL SERIES FOR THE FOOTHILLS FESCUE (SCAs 5 & 6)<br />
Soil series are defined on the basis of detailed features of the soil pedon, such as colour, lithology, texture, and structure. Soil series reflect a unique<br />
combination of a soil subgroup and parent material that is present over a representative land area. Soil series are named for geographic points (e.g. towns)<br />
located in the area where they occur, and each soil series is denoted with a three-letter symbol. Soil series descriptions include soil subgroup, texture<br />
(Fig. 4) and parent material. A change in any of the three properties can result in a new soil series if there is sufficient area mapped in its applicable Soil<br />
Correlation Area.<br />
