    Ap—0 to 15 centimeters (0.0 to 5.9 inches); brown (10YR 4/3) and dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2) Error; medium and coarse granular structure; friable; 12 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; moderately acid, pH 6.0; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0015921
    E—15 to 23 centimeters (5.9 to 9.1 inches); brownish yellow (10YR 6/6) Error; very thick platy, and weak subangular blocky structure; friable; 11 percent fine and medium faint light yellowish brown (10YR 6/4), moist, masses of reduced iron; 8 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; strongly acid, pH 5.2; clear wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0015922
    B—23 to 43 centimeters (9.1 to 16.9 inches); strong brown (7.5YR 5/6) and strong brown (7.5YR 5/6) Error; moderate fine and medium subangular blocky structure; friable; 0.9 fine pores; 15 percent light yellowish brown (10YR 6/4), moist, silt coats on faces of peds; 5 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.6; clear wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0015923. Color has yellowish red (5YR 5/8) variegations in fine- and medium-sized concentrations. Slightly sticky and slightly plastic to plastic when wet. Estimated permeability is moderate.; discontinuous - phpvsfiid 977686; discontinuous - phpvsfiid 977686
