Preface
Sod surveys contain information that affects land use planning in survey areas. They
highlight sod limitations that affect various land uses and provide information about
the properties of the sods in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for many
different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban planners,
community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers. Also,
conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste disposal,
and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand, protect, or enhance
the environment
Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose
special restrictions on land use or land treatment Sod surveys identify sod properties
that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions. The information
is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of soil limitations on
various land uses The landowner or user is responsible for identifying and complying
with existing laws and regulations.
Although sod survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area
planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some cases
Examples include soil quality assessments (http / /www nres usda gov /wps /portal/
nres /main /sods /health /) and certain conservation and engineering applications For
more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center (http //
offices sc egov usda gov/locator /app ?agency =nres) or your NRCS State Sod
Scientist (http / /www nres usda gov / wps/ portal /nres /detail/soilslcontactus /?
ad= nres142p2_053951)
Great differences in sod properties can occur within short distances. Some sods are
seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a
foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as septic
tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to basements or
underground installations
The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a point effort of the United States Department
of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the Agricultural
Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources Conservation
Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National Cooperative Sod
Survey
Information about sods is updated periodically Updated information is available
through the NRCS Web Sod Survey, the site for official sod survey information

How Soil Surveys Are Made
Sod surveys are made to provide information about the sods and miscellaneous areas
in a specific area. They include a description of the soils and miscellaneous areas and
their location on the landscape and tables that show sod properties and limitations
affecting various uses. Sod scientists observed the steepness, length, and shape of
the slopes; the general pattern of drainage; the kinds of crops and native plants; and
the kinds of bedrock They observed and described many sod profiles. A sod profile is
the sequence of natural layers, or horizons, in a sod. The profile extends from the
surface down into the unconsolidated material in which the soil formed or from the
surface down to bedrock The unconsolidated material is devoid of roots and other
living organisms and has not been changed by other biological activity
Currently, sods are mapped according to the boundaries of mayor land resource areas
(MLRAs). MLRAs are geographically associated land resource units that share
common characteristics related to physiography, geology, climate, water resources,
sods, biological resources, and land uses (USDA, 2006). Sod survey areas typically
consist of parts of one or more MLRA.
The sods and miscellaneous areas in a survey area occur in an orderly pattern that is
related to the geology, landforms, relief, climate, and natural vegetation of the area.
Each kind of soil and miscellaneous area is associated with a particular kind of
landform or with a segment of the landform By observing the sods and miscellaneous
areas in the survey area and relating their position to specific segments of the
landform, a sod scientist develops a concept, or model, of how they were formed. Thus,
during mapping, this model enables the sod scientist to predict with a considerable
degree of accuracy the kind of soil or miscellaneous area at a specific location on the
landscape
Commonly, individual sods on the landscape merge into one another as their
characteristics gradually change. To construct an accurate soil map, however, sod
scientists must determine the boundaries between the soils. They can observe only
a limited number of sod profiles. Nevertheless, these observations, supplemented by
an understanding of the sod - vegetation - landscape relationship, are sufficient to verify
predictions of the kinds of sod in an area and to determine the boundaries
Soil scientists recorded the characteristics of the soil profiles that they studied. They
noted soil color, texture, size and shape of sod aggregates, kind and amount of rock
fragments, distribution of plant roots, reaction, and other features that enable them to
identrfy sods. After describing the sods in the survey area and determining their
properties, the sod scientists assigned the sods to taxonomic classes (units).
Taxonomic classes are concepts. Each taxonomic class has a set of soil
characteristics with precisely defined limits. The classes are used as a basis for
comparison to classrfy soils systematically. Sod taxonomy, the system of taxonomic
classification used in the United States, is based mainly on the kind and character of
soil properties and the arrangement of horizons within the profile After the soil
scientists classified and named the sods in the survey area, they compared the
5

Custom Sod Resource Report
individual sods with similar sods in the same taxonomic class in other areas so that
they could confirm data and assemble additional data based on experience and
research
The objective of sod mapping is not to delineate pure map unit components, the
objective is to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that have
similar use and management requirements Each map unit is defined by a unique
combination of sod components and /or miscellaneous areas in predictable
proportions Some components may be highly contrasting to the other components of
the map unit. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes
the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The delineation of such landforms and
landform segments on the map provides sufficient information for the development of
resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, onsite investigation is
needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas.
Sod scientists make many field observations in the process of producing a sod map
The frequency of observation is dependent upon several factors, including scale of
mapping, intensity of mapping, design of map units, complexity of the landscape, and
experience of the soil scientist. Observations are made to test and refine the sod -
landscape model and predictions and to verify the classification of the sods at specific
locations. Once the soil landscape model is refined, a significantly smaller number of
measurements of individual sod properties are made and recorded These
measurements may include field measurements, such as those for color, depth to
bedrock, and texture, and laboratory measurements, such as those for content of
sand, silt, clay, salt, and other components. Properties of each sod typically vary from
one point to another across the landscape.
Observations for map unit components are aggregated to develop ranges of
characteristics for the components The aggregated values are presented. Direct
measurements do not exist for every property presented for every map unit
component Values for some properties are estimated from combinations of other
properties
While a sod survey is in progress, samples of some of the sods in the area generally
are collected for laboratory analyses and for engineering tests. Soil scientists interpret
the data from these analyses and tests as well as the field - observed characteristics
and the soil properties to determine the expected behavior of the sods under different
uses. Interpretations for all of the sods are field tested through observation of the sods
in different uses and under different levels of management. Some interpretations are
modified to fit local conditions, and some new interpretations are developed to meet
local needs Data are assembled from other sources, such as research information,
production records, and field experience of specialists. For example, data on crop
yields under defined levels of management are assembled from farm records and from
field or plot experiments on the same kinds of sod.
Predictions about sod behavior are based not only on sod properties but also on such
variables as climate and biological activity. Sod conditions are predictable over long
periods of time, but they are not predictable from year to year For example, sod
scientists can predict with a fairly high degree of accuracy that a given sod will have
a high water table within certain depths in most years, but they cannot predict that a
high water table will always be at a specific level in the sod on a specific date
After sod scientists located and identified the significant natural bodies of sod in the
survey area, they drew the boundaries of these bodies on aerial photographs and
identified each as a specific map unit. Aerial photographs show trees, buildings, fields,
roads, and rivers, all of which help in locating boundaries accurately

Map Unit Descriptions
The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a sod survey represent the sods
or miscellaneous areas In the survey area. The map unit descriptions, along with the
maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit.
A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more
mayor kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas A map unit is identified and named
according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant sods. Within a taxonomic
class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils On the landscape,
however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the characteristic variability
of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some observed properties may extend
beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class Areas of sods of a single taxonomic
class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without including areas of other taxonomic
classes Consequently, every map unit is made up of the soils or miscellaneous areas
for which it is named and some minor components that belong to taxonomic classes
other than those of the mayor soils
Most minor sods have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or sods in the
map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called
noncontrasting, or similar, components They may or may not be mentioned in a
particular map unit description Other minor components, however, have properties
and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different
management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They generally
are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the scale used
Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas are identified
by a special symbol on the maps If included in the database for a given area, the
contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit descriptions along with
some characteristics of each A few areas of minor components may not have been
observed, and consequently they are not mentioned in the descriptions, especially
where the pattern was so complex that it was impractical to make enough observations
to identify all the soils and miscellaneous areas on the landscape.
The presence of minor components in a map unit In no way diminishes the usefulness
or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate pure taxonomic
classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that
have similar use and management requirements The delineation of such segments
on the map provides sufficient Information for the development of resource plans If
intensive use of small areas is planned, however, onsite investigation Is needed to
define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas

Custom Sod Resource Report
An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions Each
description includes general facts about the unit and gives important sod properties
and qualities
Sods that have profiles that are almost alike make up a sod series Except for
differences in texture of the surface layer, all the sods of a series have mayor horizons
that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement
Sods of one senes can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness, salinity,
degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the basis of such
differences, a sod senes is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas shown on the
detailed sod maps are phases of sod series The name of a sod phase commonly
indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha silt loam, 0
to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series.
Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas
These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups.
A complex consists of two or more sods or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate
pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps The
pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar in all
areas Alpha -Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example
An association is made up of two or more geographically associated sods or
miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps Because of present or
anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered practical
or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately The pattern and
relative proportion of the sods or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar Alpha -
Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example
An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas that
could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar
interpretations can be made for use and management The pattern and proportion of
the sods or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can be
made up of only one of the mayor sods or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made up
of all of them. Alpha and Beta sods, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example
Some surveys include miscellaneous areas Such areas have little or no soil material
and support little or no vegetation Rock outcrop is an example
