 Brighton-Placid-
   Marshlands with deep organic soils
interspersed with areas of very poorly
drained soils having a rich black surface
layer. These areas are dominated by nearly
level soils having the ground water table
normally located within 15 inches of the
surface. The ground water table frequently
rises above the surface with this soil type
and assists in the creation of its thick,
organic surface layers.

clay subsoil as well as other areas with
sandy surface layers more than 30 inches
thick.. These areas are dominated by nearly
level soils in which the ground water table


fluctuates between 30 to 60 inches below the
surface, with sandy surface layers less than 40
inches thick.
   The high water table of the Brighton-
Placid soil areas, which comprise much of
the developed and potentially developable
land within McIntosh is a major limitation,
due to the inherent nature of these areas to
have problems with flooding and drainage.
These soils are mainly located to the east of
the old rail line and extend to the lake.
