#> 179 Human-altered and human-transported material classes are only used in taxa of mineral soils where one of the following occurs: (1) human-altered or human-transported material extends from the soil surface to a depth of 50 cm or to a root-limiting layer, whichever is shallower; or (2) the soil classifies in an Anthraltic, Anthraquic, Anthrodensic, Anthropic, Anthroportic, Haploplaggic, or Plaggic extragrade subgroup (defined in chapter 3). In other taxa, the class is omitted from the family name and the parent material is identified at the soil series level. Examples of soils that use human-altered and human- transported material classes and formed in human-transported material are a fine, methanogenic, mixed, active, nonacid, thermic Anthrodensic Ustorthent, which was compacted during construction of a sanitary landfill, and a fine-loamy, spolic, mixed, active, calcareous, mesic Anthroportic Udorthent, which resulted from reclamation of a surface coal mine. An example of a soil using a human-altered and human-transported material class, which formed in human-altered material as a result of mechanical displacement of a preexisting natric horizon, is a fine, araric, smectitic, calcareous, thermic Anthraltic Sodic Xerorthent.
