Northeastern Indiana Geology
Northeastern Indiana Geology
(OP)
Hey all,
I am putting together a proposal to do a geotechnical evaluation in Fremont, IN. This is located in the very northeastern corner of Indiana.
I have been doing some research and I have found that there is post-glacial soil deposits, most likely moranic deposits and glacial till. It seems like the drift thickness is about 200 feet.
What I would like to know is if there is any unusual geologic features in this area such as Karst, expansive soils, etc.
Does anyone have any info on this area?
Thanks in advance!

I've looked on-line and can't seem to find a copy your brochure or map showing where concrete aggregate is soft to hard. Have you found a location of your map on-line? I would be interested.
Also the agency you referred to in your first post is the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), the progeny of the old Soil Conservation Service (SCS). In most states there should be a service center in each county.
