Urban Lands

Mapping Symbol: Ur

Urban land is soil that has been modified by disturbance of the natural layers with additions of fill material several feet thick to accommodate large industrial and housing installations. In the Green River Valley, the fill ranges from 3 to more than 12 feet thick, and from gravely sandy loam to gravely loam in texture. The erosion hazard is slight to moderate.
