a Percolation test depth at 24 in., 12 in., and 24 in., for slowly permeable, shallow soils and high water table soils, respectively, unless there is a more restrictive horizon above. If perched water is at 24 in., test depth should be held to 16 in.

b For percolation rate of 18-90 minutes max. slope is 12% and for 18-360 minutes, max. slope is 6%.
