    A—0 to 8 centimeters (0.0 to 3.1 inches); dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2) Error; moderate medium and coarse granular structure; friable; 1 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.8; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0015160. Nonsticky and nonplastic, soft. Many fine pores. Estimated permeability moderately rapid.
    E—8 to 33 centimeters (3.1 to 13.0 inches); pale brown (10YR 6/3) Error; weak medium and coarse subangular blocky structure; friable; 33 percent fine 10YR 2/ (10YR 2/), moist, iron-manganese concretions; 4 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; very strongly acid, pH 4.8; clear wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0015161. Very slightly sticky and very slightly plastic when wet, slightly hard when dry. Many fine pores. Estimated permeability moderate.
    BE—33 to 51 centimeters (13.0 to 20.1 inches); light yellowish brown (10YR 6/4) and yellowish brown (10YR 5/4) Error; moderate medium subangular blocky structure; firm; light brownish gray (10YR 6/2), moist, silt coats; 8 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; very strongly acid, pH 5.0; clear wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0015162. Slightly sticky and plastic when wet, hard when dry. Common fine pores. Estimated permeability moderate.
    Bt—51 to 76 centimeters (20.1 to 29.9 inches); reddish brown (5YR 4/4) and gray (10YR 6/1) Error; medium and coarse subangular blocky structure; very firm; 18 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; very strongly acid, pH 4.8; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0015163. Slightly sticky and plastic when wet, very hard when dry. Few fine pores. Estimated permeability moderately slow.
