Dominantly sand, high to very high permeability, low water-holding capacity, low compressibility, low shrink-swell potential, good drainage, low ridge and depressed relief, high shear strength, low plasticity.</SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN>Group VI: Geologic units include tidal flat and salt marsh. Permanently high water table, very low permeability, high water-holding capacity, very poor drainage, very poor load-bearing strength, subject to frequent tidal inundations.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
