Site review azer 4 Eta) March 2, 1982 Mr. Davis Farrar Garfield County Planning Department 2014 Blake Avenue Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 Dear Davis: The City of Rifle Planning Department has reviewed the sketch plan for the Rifle Creek Ranch Subdivision and has the following comments. I. Slope stability/Soils/Wildlife Habitat A. West of Colorado State Highway 325 The portion of the subject parcel west of Highway 325 is comprised primarily of the RLS type soil. This soil type is known to be moderately stoney with fairly rapid runoff as a result of the moderate -very steep slopes. The level of erosion hazard for this soil type is moderate -severe. Staff is concerned about the appropriateness of development of this western portion as a result of: 1. The great amount of cut and fill necessary to facilitiate the con- struction of access roads and building sites themselves. The topo- graphy is very hilly if not mountainous and it is probable that great amounts of cut will have to be made for driveways and proposed roads. 2. The anticipated road grades along this portion of the site are extremely steep, averaging 8%. Erosion hazard is high and will be exasperated with grading activity. In addition, the intersection of the access road and Highway 325 should be brought out to more of a "T" in order to prevent hazards. The appropriate highway access permits should also be secured. Staff also questions the appropriateness of chip and seal surfaces for access roads as steep as those proposed. Erosion control measures along the access roads and building site loca- tions will have to be adopted. 3. Several of the locations for building sites are somewhat undesirable (i.e. Lot 1 which is to be located on top of an abandoned coal mine) primarily as a result of the very steep topography. 4. This soil type has limitations with regard to septic tank leach fields, primarily as a result of the permeability rate and steepness of the slopes. As this area serves as a watershed, staff is concerned about the potential impact on this watershed,should the septic tank systems overload the soil capacity. A complete geotechnical report should address this potential septic tank limitation. 337 East Avenue P.O.

Re: File No. 42115 -GS Engineering Geology and Hazards Investigation Rifle Creek Ranch Subdivision Rifle, Colorado Garfield County, Colorado Dear Ms. Robinson: Personnel of Lincoln-DeVore have completed a geologic investigation on the above referenced site located i.ri the Southwest Quarter. of - Section 19, Township 5 South, Range 92 West, of the 6th Principal Meridian, Garfield County, Colorado. The site lies on an old alluvial terrace about 3 miles north of the town of Rifle, Colorado, and is bounded on the east by State Highway 325 and Rifle Creek, and by Rifle Creek Estates Subdivision on the west. Part of this site was the previous location of an old gravel pit and quarry operation, from which a considerable amount of the on-site sand and gravel resource was removed. The topography varies from relatively flat and sloping to the south, in the northeast corner of the site, to moderately steep slopes on the alluvial gravels along the strip west of State Highway 325. Surface drainage is fair, subsurface drainage is good on the western portion and poor in the northeast section. Vegetation consists of sagebrush and bunch grasses with some cedar and pinyon trees along the steeper slopes, and man -.introduced grasses along the alluvial plain of Rifle Creek. 'Phe climate is semi -arid with most of the precipitation falling as short duration, intense thunderstorms. GENERAL GEOLOGY: The stratiqraphic section in this area consists entirely of the Wasatch Formation of Tertiary Age. This formation consists of a Colorado Springs, Colorado Pueblo, Colorado Grand Junction, Colorado Glenwood Springs, Colorado Evanston, Wyoming - engineering features of these materials will be discussed in general terms. • • PONDEROSA ENGINEERING, INC. 1512 GRAND AVENUE, SUITE 220 CONSULTING ENGINEERS GLENWOOD SPRINGS, COLORADO 81601 REGISTERED LAND SURVEYORS (303)945-6596 January 5, 1982 Mr. Davis S.

GENERAL INFORMATION: The majority of this proposed development, (31.66 acres) consists of sagebrush, cedar and pinion trees with the balance, (15.09 acres) under agricultural use along Rifle Creek. The land use is proposed as single family dwelling under the existing Garfield County Zone District A/R/RD, which the Rifle Creek Estates Subdivision, adjacent to this proposed subdivision, is zoned. The subdivision will consist of two Blocks with a total of 16 Lots ranging from 2.0 acres to 3.2 acres, with the(average lot size being 2.3 acre's'_.,Two common areas have been designated for the Homeowners use, consisting off4.9 acres) Colorado State Highway No. 325 runs North-South adjacent and through th- •- elop- S ment. The(proposed roads' are classified as Residential Streets with ai50 footid g` 1,6 right-of-way and 28 foot road width. The average grade of the roads should be less than 6 percent, however one section of the upper road may be required to have a short 10 percent grade, but should average less than 8 percent. There will be no on street parking_ for any road in this development. The total road dedications consist of 5.04 acres, excluding Colorado Highway No. 325. Existing access to and from the property will be used for this development. We shall have a letter from the State Highway Department for new construction and land use changes at these points upon preliminary presentation. The total proposed development area is,4' 7.94 acres ith 16 single family dwellings, averaging a projected population of 3.5 persons per unit or a o a projecte population of 56 persons. A central water system is planned for this development by use of wells pumping into a storage tank on the highest part of the development. The system will be designed to accomodate approximately 35 single family dwelling units with fire protection storage. All main lines will be 6 inches in size. The upper dwelling units may be required to install inline pumps to provide adequate pressure depend- ing on the location of the unit. _A plan of augmentation is in process at this time and should be finalized shortly by the Court. (Copy enclosed) Based on the above projected population for the 16 lots and an average daily use ofp25 gallons per day per person (peak days the average daily water consumption would average 7.000 gallons per day. With fire protection, u quirements, an additional 8, 06 0 gallons of storage would be added. e County re- ;2) Each single family dwelling shall have a County approved .tic tank system. Sewage diposal would avera e300 gallons per day per unit. At the present time an estimated cost for ng roads and utilities within the proposed development is estimated at 1150,000.00The developer shall finance the project herself, using lots as security for such improvements, under the Improvements Agreement. The,,C mon Are described above for parks and recreation consists of approximately 10 percen of the total proposed development. Also included within easements and roads, a walk/horse path is proposed to provide access to the BLM lands adjacent to this development. individual se All above data is estimated roughly at this time, and subject to change upon preliminary engineering and studies.

Included in this unit are areas covered by various sizes of rock (25 to 90/0) and areas of rock outcrop. • Vegetation is sparse and varies from oak, pinyon pine, species of juniper, and service ber-fy. Permeability is rapid with moderate water holding capacity. Surface runoff is rapid and erosion hazard is moderate to severe. The land use is watershed and native range. ftevelopement should be excluded with grazing managed to limit impact to selected areas. LCU: VIIIe RLS-Torriorthents-Camborthids-Rock outcrop complex, steep. This broadly defined unit consists of sandstone and shale bedrock exposures, loose stones, and shallow to deep soils tverlying sandstone and shale becrock and stony basaltic alluvium. Relief is moderately steep to very steeply sloping on slope grad- ients ranging from 15 to 70 percent. This broadly defined unit occurs intermittently throughout the soil survey area. The Torriorthents make up about 45 percent of this unit. They occur on the foothills and mountainsides underlying sandstone and shale bedrock exposures consisting primarily of Mesa Verde sandstone and Wasatch shale. The soils are shallow to moderately deep, and generally are clayey to loamy in texture with a variable amount of gravel, cobble, and stone throughout. The surface is normally stone covered due to weathering of overlying bedrock exposures being carried down slope by gravity. Basaltic stone and cobbles occur on the surface in the area south of the Colorado River in the soil survey area. 11 The Camborthids make up about 20 percent of this unit. They occur on the moderately steep lower toe slopes and concave open areas of the foothills and mountain slopes. The soils are shallow to deep, have light colored surfaces, a slight increase in clay in the subsoil, and generally clayey to loamy in texture. They are RLS-Torriorthents-Camborthids-Rock outcrop complex, steep 2 normally stone free throughout. Scattered basalt stones, cobbles, and sandstone rock fragments cover the surface. Rock outcrop makes up 15 percent of this unit. The Rock out- ♦ crop consists mainly of Mesa Verde sandstone, Wasatch shale, and basaltic boulders and stones. There are small areas of limestone and gypsum rock outcrops in the eastern part of the soil survey area. Included in the mapping of this unit are small isolated areas of Ildefonso, Lazear, Ansari, Begay, Heldt, and Dollard soils. These soils are very scattered occurring intermittently throughout this unit and make up 10 to 20 percent of this unit. This unit has a fair livestock grazing value. The native vege- tation includes wheatgrasses, bluegrasses, Indian ricegrass, needle - grasses, bitterbrush, mountainmahogany, big sagebrush, and an over - story of pinyon pine and juniper trees. The area is also used for wildlife and recreational purposes. Most of this unit is a prime deer wintering area. Other game animals'such as rabbits, coyotes, end a few elk use this for food and protective cover. The amount of stone on the surface and the steepness of slopes make this unit unsuited for cropland. Some areas may be reseeded to pasture by broadcast seeding. Other types of revegetation practices are more difficult because of surface stones and steep slopes. RLS-Torriorthents-Camborthids-Rock outcrop complex, steep 3 Management of the vegetation on this unit should be designed to maintain a wood product and limited livestock grazing. Selective thinning of the pinyon -juniper may imprwe the understory resource for grazing while obtaining firewood and posts. Steep slope, moderate to high erosion hazard and slow re -growth of the trees need to be considered in harvesting operations. For building sites the main limiting soil features are steep slopes and stoniness. These may be overcome by appropriate design and construction or alternative methods.

Some hayland has been developed by constructing drainage ditches. Yields are low because of saline conditions. Alkali tolerant grasses and legumes must be grown for productive hayland and pastures. The native vegetation consists of willows, tamarisk, cottonwoods, . and alkali and water tolerant grasses. This unit provides wildlife habitat for game birds, rabbits, deer, and numerous other wildlife. The ducks and geese will nest in the more swampy areas. Mourning doves utilize the cottonwoods and tamarisk for nesting. Rabbits and deer find adequate food and cover in this habitat. Where the soil has been drained and is suitable for hayland and pasture, food plots, tree and shrub plantings, and establishment of nesting cover would enhance habitat for game birds. Where the water table is high, open water may be developed by ,blasting or heavy equipment for usage by water fowl. For community development, the main limiting soil features are 2 flooding and depth to water table. To overcome these limiting features, on-site investigations are necessary to aid in the appro- priate design and construction. Capability Subclass VIw, nonirrigated. SW-Halaquepts, nearly level. Halaquepts consist of deep, somewhat poorly to poorly drained salt -affected soils formed in alluvium. They occupy the nearly level4and gently sloping narrow foothill valleys, fans and low terrace positions where they are affected by seepage from irrigation, ditches and fluctuating water tables from nearby streams and rivers. Included in the mapping and making up 10 to 15 percent of this unit are small isolated areas of Arvada, Limonsand Heldt soils, all on 1 to 6 percent slopes. Also included are small areas of severe alkali -affected soils identified by an alkali spot symbol. Slopes are 0 to 6 percent. The soils are extremely variable within short distances. They are commonly gleyed from the surface down and have textures varying from loams to clays to a depth of 2 feet. The underlying layers are often gravelly and overlie stratified sands, gravel and cobble between 24 and 40 inches. In some areas gravel and cobble are at or near the surface. Water tables may be at or near the surface, mainly during spring and summer months. The water tables are strongly influenced by seasonal rise of water in nearby streams and use of higher lying irrigation ditches. Areas of this unit are subject to rare or occational flooding. lap Unit No. 10C SOIL CHARACTERISTICS Depth to bedrock : More than 60 inches Texture Surface : Loam Subsoil : Glay loam Substratum : Loam Unified Classification : ML, CL Permeability : Moderate .

NOT TO BE USED IN PLACE OF ON-SITE INVESTIGATION r 10C -Potts loam, 3 to 6 percent slopes. This deep, well drained, moderately sloping soil is on mesas, benches and valley sideslopes. It formed in eolian materials on alluvium from sandstone, shale or basalt. Elevation ranges from 5,000 to 7,000 feet. The average annual precipitation is about 14 inches, the average annual air temperature is about 46 degrees F., and the average frost -free period is about 120 days. Typically, the surface layer is brown loam about 4 inches thick. The subsoil is reddish brown light clay loam about 24 inches thick. The substratum is pinkish white loam extending to a depth of more than 60 inches. Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of Olney, Kim and Ildefonso soils which make up 10 to 15 percent of the mapping unit. These soils have slopes of 3 to 6 percent. Permeability of the Potts soil is moderate. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Available water capacity is high. Sur- face runoff is slow and the erosion hazard is moderate. This soil is used mainly for irrigated crops and hay, and for dryland farming. Alfalfa, small grains, and grass -legume hay are grown. Small areas of this soil are also used for livestock grazing. Flooding is the usual method of applying irrigation water. Conservation practices that include irrigation ditch drop structures, 2 10C -Potts loam grass waterways, and minimum tillage are necessary to avoid serious erosion losses. These soils pipe easily,.and irrigation water manage- ment is extremely important in avoiding excessive piping. Cover crops orstubble mulching in dryland farming areas will also help to limit erosion losses. The native vegetation on this soil is mainly bluebunch wheat - grass, western wheatgrass, needleandthread, and big sagebrush. When the range condition deteriorates, forbs and woody shrubs increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesirable weeds and annual plants are numerous. Proper grazing management maintains and improves range condition. A reduction in brush im- proves deteriorated range sites. Seeding is a good practice if the range is in poor condition. Suitable plants for seeding are crested wheatgrass, western wheatgrass, and Russian wildrye. For successful seedings, a good practice is to prepare a seedbed and drill the seed. Wildlife using this soil for habitat include pheasant, mourning dove, cottontail rabbit, some mule deer, and squirrel. Potts soil has good potential for community and recreational development. The main limitations for these uses are strength, piping, and frost -heave. Dwe]iings and roads design can be designed to compen- sate for these limitations. Community sewage systems are needed if the population density increases. Capabilty subclass IIIe. Map Unit No. X1OD Part A SOIL CHARACTERISTICS Depth to bedrock Texture Surface. Subsoil Substratum .

The subsurface layer is brown stony loam about 6 inches thick. The underlying material is white very strongly calcar- eous very stony loam that extends to a depth of more than 60 inches. 'Permeability of the Ildefonso soil is rapid. Effective rooting depth is 20 to 30 inches. Available water capacity is low. Surface runoff is slow and the erosion hazard is moderate. These soils are used mainly for limited livestock grazing and for wildlife habitat. The native vegetation on the Potts soil is mainly bluebunch wheatgrass, western wheatgrass, needleandthread, and big sagebrush. The native vegetation on the Ildefonso soil is mainly pinyon pine and Utah juniper. The understory vegetation is Indian ricegrass, needleandthread, beardless wheatgrass, junegrass, stemless goldenweed, low phlox, serviceberry, bitterbrush, mountainmahogany, and big sagebrush. When the vegetation deteriorates under the pinyon pine and juniper, overstory grasses almost disappear and forbs and woody shrubs increase. Proper grazing management maintains and improves range condition on both soils. Seeding is a good practice on the Potts soil if the rang is in poor condition. Suitable plants for ,." • 3 X10D-Potts-Ildefonso complex seeding are crested wheatgrass, western wheatgrass, and Russian wild - rye. For successful seedings, a good practice is to prepare a seed- bed and drill the seed. A reduction in brush on the Potts soil im- proves deteriorated range sites. Proper management of the vegetation on the Ildefonso soil will maintain a wood produce and grazing value. Selective thinning of the pinyon pine and juniper overstory improves the understory for grazing and provides firewood, posts and Christmas trees. Wildlife using these soils include mule deer, wild turkey, chukar, gray squirrel, cottontail rabbit, and some pheasant. Potential community development on the Ildefonso soil is limited by stoniness, high lime content, erosion hazard, and steep slopes. Potential community development on the Potts soil is limited by low strength, piping, and frost -heave. Capability subclass, VIIe. c..),/,1,1\.)C• /0 /, /' _7- p Unit. N .

The average annual precipitation is about 12 inches, the average annual air temperature is about 48 degrees F., and the average frost-free period is about 120 days. Typically, the surface layer is pale brown loam about 3 inches thick. The subsoil is brown silty clay loam about 14 inches thick. The substratum is light brown or brown silty clay loam that extends to a depth of 60 inches or more. Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of Limon, Kim, Heldt, and Wann soils all on similar slopes. Also some areas high in silt are included. Permeability of the Arvada soil is moderately slow. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more. Available water capacity is high. Organic matter content in the surface is low. Surface runoff is medium and the erosion hazard is moderate. ;his soil is used mainly for wildlife habitat, limited livestock grazing, and some irrigated farming. Irrigation methods suitable for this soil are borders, furrows, and corrugations. Leaching is a requirement to remove excess salts when this soil is irrigated. Commercial fertilizers containing sulfates and carbonates are preferred to obtain reasonable production of alfalfa, corn, and small grains. X33BC-Arvada loam 2 The native vegetation on this soil is mainly saltgrass, western wheatgrass, alkali sacaton, and greasewood. When the range condition deteriorates, forbs and woody shrubs increase. Proper grazing management maintains and 'improves range condition. Seeding is advisable if the range is in poor condition. Suitable plants for seeding are western wheatgrass, alkali sacaton, and tall wheatgrass. For'successful seeding, a good practice is to prepare a seedbed and drill the seed. Temporary irrigation of a new seeding may be required for successful establishment. Reduction in brush improves deteriorated range sites, provided there is adequate grass understory. Arvada soil is used by cottontail rabbits and pheasants shelter when they can obtain food from surrounding areas. This soil has poor potential for sanitary facilities, for community development, and source material. The high shrink -swell potential, slow permeability, and soil salinity are the main limiting features. Capability subclass IVs; VIIs dryland. 541/ 7 yr / f?

This deep, well drained, hilly to steep soil is on mesa breaks, valley sideslopes, and alluvial fans. A small portion of this/unit is found on very steep to extremely steep mesa escarpments. It formed in mixed alluvium, primarily of basalt origin. A thin cap of reddish colored eolian soil material is found intermittently in this mapping unit. Elevation ranges from 5,000 to 6,500 feet. The average annual precipitation is about 14 inches, the average annual air temperature is about 46 degrees F., and the average frost -free period is about 125 days. Typically, the surface layer is brown stony loam about 2 inches thick. The subsurface layer is brown stony loam about 6 inches thick. The underlying material is white very stony loam that is very strongly calcareous and extends to a depth of more than 60 inches.

When the vegetation deteriorates under the pinyon -juniper, grasses are almost absent while forbs and woody shrubs increase. Proper manage- d ment of the vegetation on this soil will maintain a wood product and ground cover. Grazing value is low because of steep slopes and tree canopy cover. Firewood, posts, and Christmas trees may be obtained an the more gentle slopes. This soil is suited to the production of pinyon pine and Utah juniper. It is capable of producing 9 cords per acre when the stand attains an average diameter (at one foot) of five inches for trees over 4.5 feet in height. The low available water capacity can influence tree seedling survival. Steep slopes and a high erosion hazard will influence harvesting operations. Some of the wildlife using this soil for habitat include mule deer, chukar, wild turkey, gray squirrel, and cottontail rabbit. Ildefonso soil is limited for community development by a high content of stones and steep slopes. It is easily eroded and runoff diversion structures are needed for any roads constructed on this 11. soil. Capability subclass VIIe.
