The soils in this map unit are nearly level and poorly drained. These soils are on broad plains on the flatwoods. The slopes are dominantly less than 2%. During most years, the soils in this map unit have a seasonal high water table within 12 inches of the surface for 1 month to 4 months. The soils in this map unit are poorly suited to use for sanitary facilities, building sites, and recreational development. The main limitations are seepage and wetness. Water control, including drainage outlets are needed to overcome wetness. Fill material should be added to make these soils suitable for most urban uses.
