Description: This is a map from the Southwest Florida Watershed Management District or SWFWMD of the Manatee River watershed distribution of soil hydrologic groups created on December 11, 2000. This map shows the following soil hydrologic groups: A- high infiltration rate (beige), A/D (light brown), B- moderate infiltration rate (orange), B/D (brown), C- slow infiltration rate (olive green), C/D (green), D- very slow infiltration rate (mauve), and undefined (light gray). It also shows the Watershed Management boundary shown by the thick black line, US/State roads, open water, inland water and county boundaries. "Soils data were obtained from USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service (formerly the USDA Soil Conservation Service) county soil surveys. The scale of the data corresponds to 1:24,000 scale USGS quadrangles. The data displayed here are soil map units aggregated by the soil hydrologic group. Please see the appropriate county soil survey for further information." —Southwest Florida Watershed Management District
