The map unit descriptions, along with the maps, can be used to determine j he composition and properties of a unit.

Thus, the range of some I the limits defined for a taxonomic class. s rarely, if ever, can be mapped without ;es. Consequently, every map unit is made )r which it is named and some minor asses other than those of the major soils. Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the map unit, and thus they do not affect I se 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, 9 Custom Soil Resource Report onsite investigation is needed to define and areas.

An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils 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 mliscellaneous areas separately. The pattern and relative proportion of the soils o'r miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar. Alpha -Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
