<br />Kingsley: This soil type is a sandy loam, undulating to gently rolling and is well <br />drained with moderate permeability. Natural fertility is medium and organic <br />matter moderate. This soil type is typically well suited for farming and adapts well <br />for typical urban landscape plantings including turf areas. This soil type is also <br />well suited for building sites. <br /> <br />Seelyeville: This soil typically has a muck type consistency in the surface layer. <br />This is a level very poorly drained soil that occurs in bogs. This soil is usually <br />subject to flooding. Most of these soils are left undeveloped. <br /> <br />Rifle: This is a level, very poorly drained soil with a mucky surface layer. This soil <br />type is usually idle due to flooding potential and poor building suitability. <br /> <br />Urban Land: This miscellaneous area has more than 90% of its surface covered <br />with impervious surfaces. Identification of soils in these areas is not possible. <br /> <br />Udorthents: These are areas where the natural soils have been removed or covered <br />with other material such as gravel pits. <br /> <br />(Source: Ramsey County Soil Survey - US Department of Agriculture - 1977) <br /> <br />D. Land Cover <br /> <br />The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Metro Region, along with <br />other federal, state, regional and local units of government, has developed a <br />natural resource inventory classification system to accurately map all land cover <br />types. The system is unique in that it categorizes urban and built-up areas strictly <br />in land cover terms. (See Land Cover Map) <br /> <br />The overall objective of the Minnesota Land Cover Classification System (MLCSS) <br />is to standardize land cover identification and interpretation. The MLCSS was <br />developed as a result of unanswered questions regarding natural resource <br />identification, protection and restoration efforts in the seven-county metropolitan <br />area. The MLCSS is unique in that it emphasizes vegetation land cover instead of <br />land use, thus creating a land cover inventory especially useful for resource <br />managers and planners. It identifies land cover in areas traditionally identified by <br />land use (e.g. urban, built up and agricultural areas) by identifying the structure of <br />vegetation present and including the presence of human activities as it presents <br />itself from above. <br /> <br />Land Cover versus Land Use: <br />Information on land cover and land use is required in many aspects of land use <br />planning and policy development. It also is required for monitoring and/or <br /> <br />Roseville Comprehensive Plan - 2002 Update <br /> <br />The Land and its People - Page 60f30 <br />
