The NG2 and D3 units both represent mineral soils as determined fromthe map legend . Therefore, From Table 9, the Ag . Cap . Rating of NG2 2* From Table 9, the Ag . Cap . Rating of D3 2* Therefore, theAg . Cap. Rating for the entire area represented bythe map symbol = 2W #5 . Compound Map Unit Symbol = 2W (dominant unitmore than 40% of the area) = 2W (significant unit- 20to 40% of the area) Map Unit Symbol = 01 and Fl soil landscape units represent mineral soils as determined from themap legend . Therefore, From Table 9, the Ag . Cap . Rating 01-Fl S2.3*-S2 .2* of 01 = 4MFPt S2.3* (dominant unit) From Table 9, the Ag . Cap . Rating of F1 = 5R"P 52,2* (significant unit) Therefore, the Ag . Cap . Rating for entire area represented bythe map unit symbol = 4MFPt-5R"P #6 . Compound Map Unit Symbol Figure 34 . Example portion of a soil map for the Ottawa-Carleton Region . Map Symbol = G1 .S-RK1 S1 .2-2 G1 .S is a soil landscape unit representing mineral soils and is a shallow soil phase . RK 1 is a land type unit . FromTable 9, the Ag . Cap . Rating ofG1 .S = 3RP S I .2 (dominant unit) From Table 11, the Ag . Cap . Rating ofRK 1 = 7 R (significant unit) 2 Therefore, the Ag . Cap. Rating for the entire area represented by the map symbol = 3RP-7 _R For examples #4, #5, and #6, two ratings must be determined . The first map unit shown inthe compound symbol is the dominantly occurring unit, and occupies more than 40% ofthe area . The second map unit shown is the significantly occurring unit, and occupies 20to40% of the area .
